Paper manufacturing
Process reliability, machine availability and quality throughout the entire paper production line
In paper and board production, machinery and chemical processes often extend over several hundred metres – operating continuously, at full capacity and with the highest demands on precision. Heat, moisture, high speeds and abrasive media place a strain on mechanical components as well as on process stability.
All product groups are already listed. Until the new online shop is available, the links for each group will direct you to the central product list. This way, you can keep track of everything at all times. Further documentation can be found on myChemicals - your personal platform for technical data sheets, brochures and more.

Benefits at a glance
- Reliable performance in the presence of moisture, heat and paper dust: lubricants with high resistance to water, temperature and abrasive media for reliable operation in wet and dry sections.
- Fewer downtimes, longer running times: Durable formulations protect bearings, guides and drives from wear – even at high web speeds and under continuous operation.
- Consistent paper quality thanks to residue-free release agents and lubricants: Specially developed products prevent resin build-up and deposits, reduce cleaning requirements and ensure consistent surface quality.
- Process chemicals tailored to machinery and requirements: from Yankee coating and protective films to system cleaning – all components are perfectly coordinated and can be used with complete process reliability.
Applications and solutions in paper manufacturing
- Pulp processing and wet end: Specialised lubricating greases and hydraulic oils ensure consistent performance in cylinders, rollers and pumps – even under high loads, vibrations and direct contact with wet media. Their high water resistance prevents corrosion and minimises maintenance requirements.
- Yankee chemicals: silicone oils, release systems and coating chemicals for uniform surfaces and controlled coating behaviour. They prevent build-up, reduce cleaning cycles and ensure the thermal efficiency of the Yankee cylinder.
- Converting and further processing: Lubricants for cutting and winding units, folding systems and web guidance systems ensure friction-free processes, precise cut edges and trouble-free material handling – even with the finest grammages and at high speeds.
- Process chemicals and machinery maintenance: cleaning agents, protective films and maintenance solutions for conveyor belts, spray systems and plant components. Remove resins, starch residues and paper dust without leaving any residue – for clean production and consistent machine performance over long cycles.
Services for stable processes and longer service life
- Technical advice and condition monitoring: Dedicated contacts are on hand to advise you on product selection, changeovers and optimisations. Oil analyses at the LAEMMLE Tec Centre (LTC) enable well-informed decisions to improve efficiency, extend service life and minimise risk.
- Service, maintenance and repair: The digital Roxor Machine Tool (RMT) simplifies planning, documentation and condition monitoring. In addition, professional oil sampling, the hire of hydraulic oil filtration systems and other on-site services ensure smooth operation – even for complex machine fleets.
- Optimised lubricant logistics: Availability tailored to your needs and flexible delivery concepts ensure a continuous supply of lubricants for uninterrupted production processes.
- Sustainable disposal: Efficient used oil take-back processes enable resource-efficient production cycles and legally compliant lubricant disposal.
