Domtar is the largest integrated marketer and manufacturer of uncoated freesheet paper and among the most cost-competitive papermakers in North America. Domtar is working on the development of new low basis weight and low thickness papers for specialty applications. Trials will be done in the laboratory to make a media containing experimentally determined amounts of different types of fibres including surface enhanced pulp fibres (SEPF) on which Innofibre has worked on the development. Trials also need to be performed on a pilot paper machine to determine more specific functionalities and optimal performance parameters for the manufacture of these papers for specialty applications. Innofibre has the expertise and the equipment to perform these trials and evaluations. A number of fibre property combinations are theoretically possible, as well as the range of bioproducts that could be made with them. This represents a significant economic opportunity for Canada, given the abundance of the nation's forest biomass and forest sector commitment to transformation. Domtar must have innovative processes to produce high-quality products. This is very important to keep mills running and the associated jobs for many years to come.

Domtar是北美最大的非涂布纸综合营销商和制造商，也是北美最具成本竞争力的造纸商之一。Domtar正致力于为特殊应用开发新的低定量和低厚度纸张。 将在实验室进行试验，以制造一种含有实验确定量的不同类型纤维的介质，包括Innofibre开发的表面增强纸浆纤维（SEPF）。还需要在中试造纸机上进行试验，以确定更具体的功能和最佳性能参数，用于制造这些特殊应用的纸张。Innofibre拥有进行这些试验和评估的专业知识和设备。 许多纤维特性组合在理论上是可能的，以及可以用它们制造的生物产品的范围。这对加拿大来说是一个重要的经济机会，因为该国森林生物量丰富，林业部门致力于转型。Domtar必须拥有创新工艺才能生产高质量的产品。这对于保持米尔斯工厂的运行和未来多年的相关工作非常重要。
