Company Profile

The story of Khanna papers begins with their Founder-Director Brij Mohan Khanna. Born on October 13, 1947, in the dawn of India’s newly gained independence, he grew up with ideals of service to the country and a fierce belief that India could and must excel. Bright and intelligent, he sought and got admission for an M.B.B.S degree. However a re-look at his family finances made him decide that he would put his fresh, young mind to improving the family future.


Starting with a small sum of Rs.0.10 millions culled from the family’s savings Brij Mohan set up a small paper plant in 1968 with the capacity of 200 Kg, and named it " Khanna Small Scale Industry". With his hard work and canny business sense, the plant flourished and grew.


Never one to rest on his successes, in 1978 he started a Duplex Board Plant with a capacity of 5 metric ton. In honour of his father, Shri Rattan Chand Khanna he named it "Rattan Paper Mills".  As this second plant flourished, the time came to increase the capacity and the product range. In1981, he put up another unit by the name of "Satya Paper Mills" with a capacity of 8 TPD of writing Paper. This was named after his mother Shrimati Satyavati Khanna.


In small ways are the inner workings of the mind reflected – Brij Mohan Khanna, remains a strong believer in family values. The difference is that today, the family comprises not just of his wife Renu Khanna and his two sons Rahul and Saurabh, but encompasses the entire staff and workers of subject. This perhaps is the underlying reason for the success of Khanna Papers – the loving guidance and far seeing vision of Brij Mohan Khanna, who is a patriarch in the true sense.


In 1991 he set up another unit in the name of "R. C. Paper Mills Private. Limited." with a capacity of 25 TPD.


In a short span of five years, in 1996, “Khanna Paper Mills Private. Limited.” was created by merging together R.C. Paper Mills and Satya Paper Mills.


The company grew and in keeping with the changing ideologies of the new century, Brij Mohan conceived the idea of making quality paper from waste paper. Such thinking was typical of the man who moves with the times and has always been mindful of the critical need to preserve their natural resources, and use viable alternatives that do not preclude cutting down of trees.

 

As he puts it – “If the world must have paper, and they have chosen to fulfill that need, then the responsibility lies with them to always be on the lookout for ecological alternatives to fulfill that need”.


Conceptualized in 2000, this unique project was completed in 2002. This successful experiment with utilizing waste, coalesced into their strong Ecological Policy, and is one of the basic tenets in their business ideology.


The company has traversed a long distance from manufacturing 200 Kgs sun dry board per day in 1965 to 400 tons of paper and 300 tons of board per day, today. They now have a manufacturing capacity of 1.2 lac metric ton per annum.


Subject is now an ISO 9001:2000 certified company, manufacturing quality paper and board not only for domestic consumption but also exporting it to the SAARC countries, and to Africa and the Middle East. Their export Market continues to grow at a rapid rate. Their newest product the “Flexible White Board” challenges the domination of the existing behemoth.


They are today the third largest manufacturing unit housed within one humongous single location premise.

The story of the latest entrant into the Top 5 league of Paper Manufacturers has just begun.

He remains ambitious not only for the growth of the company but also for the personal advancement of all employees. He is a true Patriarch and encourages his Management team to adopt an “open door policy” whereby any employee can walk in with ideas or a problem.

The Coated Board Making Process

The Process of coated board making at the company involves various phases and steps of converting Raw Material into a Finished Product. The various phases involved during this process could be summarized as :

·         Raw Material and Pulp Making

·         Sheet Forming

·         Pressing and Drying

·         Coating and Finishing

·         Converting and Packing

 

Applications: Coated Board of different QUALITY, different GSM and GRADE can be used for various purposes like

·         For Readymade Garment Carton, Book Covers and Pharmaceutical Boxes

·         For Printing Playing cards, Note Book Covers etc.

·         For high speed printing machine for quality jobs

·         For high speed printing machine used for Carton Printing job such as Tea, Toothpaste and Note Book Covers etc.


1. RAW MATERIAL and PULP MAKING:

Waste recycled paper is used in manufacturing paperboard in their plant. As white and Grey pulp is used to manufacture paperboard, therefore they have two main pulp preparation systems for white and grey pulp. The white pulp is made from imported good variety of mixed office waste in world-class De-inking plan. They have adopted latest International standard higher technology to manufacture pulp of brightness, strength and cleanliness. The De-inking plant comprises of high-density pulper, cleaners, screens, floatation cell, disperser and bleaching. The purpose from ink particles and other impurities.


2. SHEET FORMING:

Looking to the quality demand and consumer requirement, their total product range is manufactured on seven cylinder formers. The main composition of their baseboard is given below: The white and grey pulp manufactured from different process treated in four streets to make suitable for above four layers. Chemicals and additives added as per different quality requirement and "stock" is pumped to different formers to make board sheet called "web".

 

The web formed at different formers couched off and adhered together and form the complete board sheet.


3. PRESSING and DRYING:

Board web formed at forming section carried by a felt called “making felt” to the press part. The double felted processes remove water from the web. After squeezing maximum water from the web from press part, sheet enters the dryer section where with the help of steam heated drying cylinders water from sheet is being evaporated. In drying section, big drying cylinder called M.G. enhances glaze on the topside of the board.

4. COATING and FINISHING:

 Prior to pigment coating to enhance coating hold out, the surface sizing is done on both sides of the board at size press with special quality imported starch. Though they have three stage coating section, they operate them depending upon end uses and grade requirement. The main purpose of pigment coating is to get better look and printing properties of top surface of the board. To meet above requirement, they include world-class pigment and binder in their coating formulation. To enhance gloss and smoothness they have steel calendar followed by brush rolls.

5. CONVERTING and PACKING:

They have winder and cutter to meet market requirement. The sheet reams are packed with high B.F. Kraft and bundled in HDPE. The reel packing is in Kraft along with edge protector and HDPE.

 

Paper Making Process

The Process of paper making at subject involves various phases and steps of converting Raw Material into a Finished Product. The various phases involved during this process could be summarized as:

 

·         Raw Material

·         Pulp Preparation

·         Forming Section

·         The Press Section

·         The Dryer Section

·         Calendaring And Reeling

·         Winding

 

Applications: Paper of different QUALITY, different GSM and GRADE can be used for various purposes like:

·         For all Commercial Printing Business Communication, Publications, Diaries, Books and Stationary.

·         For Calendars, catalogues, Annual Reports, Advertising, Brochures and Pamphlets.


1. RAW MATERIAL:

The good printing and writing paper require a source of long fiber pulp for web strength. It is either purchase or produced on site. Short fiber pulp is also needed for fiber bonding and to enhance printability and paper formation. The combination of good long fiber and short fiber pulp can be achieved by latest state of the art dinking technology. In India getting good long fiber from forest resources are very much scarce. Therefore to have a good fiber blend, use of recovered fiber collected from imported sources (containing soft wood long fiber) is the best long-term option. KPM is making their own recovered fiber pulp by most sophisticated dinking technology. The recovered paper is dinked to achieve pulp of high quality. The dinked pulp is made by removing ink and impurities by mixing and processing through different equipments. After drinking, multistage bleaching is done to get required level of brightness.


2. PULP PREPARATION:

Pulp produced after bleaching is being supplied to paper machine. Dyes are added along with other paper making additives to achieved desired visual appearance. The end result is "furnish" pulp prepared for paper machine use. The exact mix of various pulp, depends on the grade of paper being produced.



3. FORMING SECTION:

The conventional system of sizing of writing and printing paper is to use Rosin and Alum at 4-5 pH range. This type of sizing is called "acid" sizing which adversely affect the paper quality in terms of paper age, longitivity and paper shade as well as strength and optical properties. In order to overcome these problems, KPM has adopted alkaline sizing in the line of World's latest development of paper sizing. In alkaline sizing, as the name suggests the sizing of the paper is done under alkaline conditions resulting improved paper quality, KPM paper is much better in optical, physical properties along with more permanence and better bulk, because of alkaline sizing and good recycled pulp use. The forming section is where the fibers are formed into a web. Furnish is diluted with water to a consistency of 1% fiber to 99% water. Delivery system spread the dilute mixture on revolving belt-like screen, referred to as "wires " or "forming fibers" by Paper Makers. Many details such as the speed of the wire and the speed at which the pulp is delivered, are critical and closely controlled. The Pulp fibers in the presence of water bond to other fibers. The tendency of these fibers to form together in group is called "flocculation". A great deal of sophisticated engineering is devoted to keeping these fibers evenly dispersed until they are on the wire (screen) and set is place. Success in doing this results in superior web "formation". Excess water is removed to increase the consistency of fiber mat from approximately 1% to 20% solids by the time it leaves the forming section. Drainage is increased by using a variety of "de-watering elements". This takes place in less than 2 seconds on modern paper machines. Cultural grades of paper are generally manufactured at a final moisture target of 4% to 6% range. As paper moves through the machine, water is removed by pressing after the web leaves the forming section.


4. THE PRESS SECTION:

Pressing is done to remove water, compacts the web and improves strength. A press section works by using felts and vacuum devices to remove water.


5. THE DRYER SECTION:

The dryer section of paper machine is composed of one or more separately driven and pressurized sections of dryers, which allow control over dryer temperature and web tensions. Dryer felts support the sheet and maintain the close contact between the sheet and the dryers to rapidly transfer heat from the dryers to the web. The web enters the dryer sections containing approximately 60% moisture and usually leaves at 4% to 6% moisture content. The moisture varies depending on the efficiency of the press section (going into the dryers) and specifications for the finished product (leaving the dryers).


6. CALENDARING and REELING:

The calendaring section of the paper machine gives the desired finish to the web. Calendaring compacts the sheet and increases smoothness. A higher degree of smoothness usually results in better printability. Calendar stacks consists of smooth rolls of varying configurations. Items such as roll compositions, whether or not steam is used in the rolls, the number of rolls and the types of control over these rolls all vary from paper machine to paper machine. The paper leaving from the calendar stack is wound into a large roll of paper referred to as the "parent roll". Parent rolls are wound to the specific diameter needed to produce subsequent "sets" of smaller diameter reels to satisfy customer requirements.


7. WINDING:

Winders convert parent rolls into customer requested reels of specific width and diameter. They also make the removal of defective paper possible, and are designed to control the amount of tension wound into rolls.
