Kuraray will participate in Specialty Papers US 2026, taking place October 27–28, 2026 at the Milwaukee Marriott Downtown. As a Welcome Break Sponsor and exhibitor, Kuraray will present KURARAY POVAL™ and EXCEVAL™, our high-performance polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) solutions for paper and packaging applications.
KURARAY POVAL™ offers advanced material solutions designed to meet the evolving requirements of paper and packaging applications. Selected grades are BPI Certified and OMRI® Listed, supporting applications where both high performance and responsible material choices are essential.
EXCEVAL™ is a hydrophobically modified polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) offering excellent water, grease, and gas barrier performance, including under high-humidity conditions. Used in paper coatings, adhesives, and sustainable packaging applications, EXCEVAL™ provides an inherently biodegradable, recyclable and re-pulpable aqueous high-barrier coating solution.
Our onsite team looks forward to discussing how Kuraray’s material solutions can support your next paper and packaging project.
