PREDICTABILITY is the most important product characteristic. We help paper and paperboard manufacturers improve the predictability of both their process and their products.

PROFITABILITY follows PREDICTABILITY for paper and paperboard products.

Our group is led by Vann Parker, who has worked in technical areas of paper mills for 25 years. Vann has extensive experience with coated bleached paperboard, coated multi-ply paperboard, coated unbleached paperboard, and fine paper.

Vann's mill experience and process knowledge are beneficial in interpreting the results of our tests and evaluations. Process knowledge can facilitate discovery of the root cause of problems, and it can help determine what changes are required to achieve desired results.

Our Mission is to help our customers improve the predictability of their paper, paperboard, or converted product. Improved product predictability leads to increased profitability for our customers, their customers, and their suppliers as well.

Objectivity and independence is critical to our mission. We work to test, evaluate, interpret, and report the facts frankly and honestly in order to maximize our value to our customers. At times it is difficult for an in-house technical services group to be completely objective, especially when there are competing points of view.
