Built on the floor. Proven in production.
Bollant Industries makes recycled kraft paper, duplex board, industrial paper products, packaging and tableware at eight units in Telangana and Karnataka, including two paper mills with a combined design capacity of around 160 tonnes a day.
What Bollant does
We turn what the city throws away into the paper, board and products other industries run on, on floors built for people of every ability.
Recovered at the source
Our mills run on recovered paper and board, graded before it is pulped. Leaf tableware is pressed from sheaths that fall from areca palms.
Revived, not rebuilt
Both paper mills were existing plants brought back to production through assessment, re-engineering and automation.
Integrated at source
Adhesives, printing inks and laminating films are made in-house, so the quality of every downstream product is controlled from the start.
Production process
From recovered fibre to finished product.
Six stages, from recovered paper arriving at a mill to finished products leaving a converting unit. Scroll to move along the line.
- 01 / 06
Collect and grade
Recovered paper and board arrive from collection partners and are graded by type before they reach the pulper.
- In:
- Mixed recovered paper
- Out:
- Graded bales
- 02 / 06
Pulp and clean
Graded paper is hydro-pulped, screened and cleaned so contaminants leave before the fibre is refined.
- In:
- Graded bales
- Out:
- Clean fibre stock

Form the sheet
Refined stock is formed on the wire, pressed and dried on automated, PLC-controlled paper machines.

Reel and finish
The web is reeled, then slit and cut to the width, diameter or sheet size of the order.

Quality and reliability
Built around consistency and control.
Buyers need the hundredth reel to behave like the first. Every order passes through these control points.
Finished plates inspected against the agreed specification before packing.
Incoming material is graded
Recovered paper is sorted by grade before pulping, because the feed decides how a sheet behaves on a customer’s line.
The specification is agreed first
GSM, burst factor, dimensions, print and packing are confirmed in writing before an order is scheduled.
Lines run under process control
Paper machines run on automated, PLC-controlled lines, so settings are repeatable from one run to the next.
Output is checked before dispatch
Finished goods are inspected against the agreed specification before they are packed.
Documents travel with the order
Specification sheets, test results and declarations are shared for the product you buy, once confirmed for that product.
Certifications are published here only once the certificate holder, facility, scope and validity have been confirmed. Ask for the current documentation for the product you are buying.

Case studies
Real requirements. Practical outcomes.
How Bollant has added capacity, built product lines and designed its floors, in company-stated figures.
All case studiesPochampally: bringing a closed paper mill back into production
A distressed mill with idle machinery and no secure raw material, returned to production using the ARO method.
Jeedimetla: raising a loss-making mill to 100 tonnes a day
An operating mill running far below what its equipment could deliver, turned around with automation and line control.
Areca leaf: turning a burned residue into an export-grade product line

Insights
Knowledge that supports better decisions.
12 practical guides for buyers and specifiers, and a glossary of the terms behind them.
All insights
Specifying recycled kraft paper: the parameters that matter
GSM alone does not tell a supplier what you need. Burst factor, moisture, Cobb and reel geometry decide how paper runs on your line.
How to specify an industrial paper core or tube
A core that crushes, ovalises or sheds fibre stops a line. Six dimensions and one strength figure prevent most of those failures.
Compostable, recyclable or reusable: making an end-of-life claim you can defend
The same plate can be compostable in one city and landfill in another. What to check before you print a claim on your own packaging.
Questions
Questions buyers ask
Is Bollant Industries a manufacturer or a trader?
A manufacturer. The paper grades come from Bollant’s own two mills, and converted products are made on Bollant lines from that paper.
What does "Built on the floor. Proven in production." mean?
It is the company’s way of saying that its capability is shown by what its units actually produce, not by claims.
Why does Bollant revive mills instead of building new ones?
Existing plants already have land, buildings, permissions and trained people nearby. Bollant assesses them, re-engineers the lines and connects them to raw material and buyers.
Who works on Bollant production floors?
People of every ability. Stations are designed so a task can be done by touch, sight or sound, and the same output standard applies to everyone.
What does Bollant Industries make?
Recycled paper and board, industrial paper products such as cores and cones, corrugated and printed packaging, paper tableware, areca and sal leaf tableware, inks, adhesives and laminating films, and a small home and professional care range.
Where is Bollant Industries based?
The head office is in Somajiguda, Hyderabad, and the manufacturing units are in Telangana and Karnataka.
