Test description and results
The test was conducted by producing the same roll in terms of wound paper and firmness, comparing two conditions: one without Warm-up Contactless and the other with Warm-up Contactless Double.
The product, a BRT 2-ply 16 gsm, was manufactured using a double-height roll for the upper ply and a micro roll for the lower ply. The application of the Warm-up Contactless Double led to a 36% increase in caliper of the finished product, along with an increase in roll diameter, without any change in firmness or strength.

The test was conducted by producing the same roll in terms of wound paper and firmness, comparing two conditions: one without Warm-up Contactless and the other with Warm-up Next. The product, a BRT 2-ply 16 gsm, was manufactured using a pre-embossing micro and a single-height design for the upper ply, while the lower ply was processed with a micro roll. The application of the contactless warm-up on both micro rolls resulted in a 52% increase in caliper of the finished product, accompanied by an increase in roll diameter, with no variation in firmness and minimal variation in strength.
