HIGH DENSITY CORE - INTRO
HDC – HIGH DENSITY CORES
Keep your existing machine, but do an important upgrade of
your products, with minimum rebuilt downtime of your line:
BICMA technology for ultrathin high-density fluff/SAP cores
has enormous success in the market. The technology is
delivered as an independent stand-alone module which can
easily be added to your existing machine. It is suitable for
feminine care or light incontinence products, as well as for adult
diapers and baby diapers.
The principle:
• 2 outer layers of pure fluff
• High percentage of SAP in center layer
• Strong compression
• Option: Pattern embossing for enhanced core flexibility
and liquid distribution
Your benefits:
• Cost reduction
• Modern product appearance
• Good pad integrity
• Comfort and discretion for the end user
• Good absorption performance despite reduced thickness
When will
YOU
decide to go for
this upgrade?

COMPARISON OF CORE TYPES
QUI/2010
Baby Diaper
Classical Cores – A Comparison
The classical core is bulky, rather thick, with low pad density. It
has a homogeneous mix of fluff and SAP and usually a 3D
shape. The amount of SAP is limited to avoid clogging of the
drumformer screens.
3D-core, Fluff + SAP homogeneous
Example Calculation:
Fluff per diaper 13 g / Price apprx
600 € per ton
SAP per diaper 09 g / Price apprx 1,500 € per ton
Retention:
Fluff 13 g x 4
= 52
SAP 09 g x 33
= 297
Total retention/core = 349
Costs:
Fluff 13 g x 0,06
SAP 09 g x 0,15

This calculation is a non-binding example. The actual values for
your product will depend on the market prices for raw materials,
your types of fluff and SAP, and your product specifications.

Baby Diaper
High Density Cores – A Comparison
The HDC core is ultrathin, with high pad density. It has a
sandwich structure with pure fluff layers outside, and a
homogeneous mix of fluff with high SAP percentage in the
middle. The maximum percentage is subject to the SAP type.
The core typically has a 2D shape and can have a pattern
embossing as an option. The dusting layers can be very thin,
e.g. only 40 gsm each.
Sandwich structure, thin, SAP in middle layer
Example Calculation:
Fluff per diaper 8,0 g / Price apprx
600 € per ton
SAP per diaper 9,7 g / Price apprx 1,500 € per ton
Retention:
Fluff 8,0 g x 4
SAP 9,7 g x 33
Total retention/core
= 32 g
= 320,1 g
= 352,1 g
Costs:

COST SAVINGS WITH HDC CORE

Baby Diaper
High Density Cores – Yearly Cost Savings
Sandwich structure, thin, SAP in middle layer
This modern type of core therefore includes a high saving
potential. Although our calculations are only non-binding
estimations, you can see that savings in the following range are
not unrealistic:
Savings of up to 616.000 Euro / Year
The higher your production figures are per year and machine,
the faster the investment in a HDC upgrade will be paid by the
savings you have in the core costs.
