2026: The Year Everything Changes
2026 isn’t just another year — it’s the moment the tissue industry will be rewritten. Sustainability regulations, energy demands, and consumer expectations will converge, leaving no room for “good enough.” Companies that rely on outdated rollers will struggle. Downtime, waste, inconsistent patterns, dissatisfied customers — these will be the silent killers of brands that don’t act now.
gravion isn’t waiting. We’re already there. Our engineers in Germany and the USA are designing, testing, and deploying the next-generation rollers that will define the future of tissue production.
Global Forces Reshaping the Market
The forces converging in 2026 will not tolerate hesitation:
- Sustainability mandates:recyclable, eco-friendly, zero-acid embossing.
- Energy efficiency:leaner machines, smarter geometries, less waste.
- Consumer demand:softness, absorbency, and embossed design that drives loyalty.
- Global competition:speed, precision, resilience against tariffs and supply chain risks.
Ignoring these trends is no longer optional. gravion is already ahead, providing solutions that tackle all four challenges at once.
Why Rollers Decide Everything
Here’s the hard truth: everything runs through the roller. Product quality, energy consumption, uptime, and sustainability — all of it is decided here.
By 2026, “good enough” rollers will be obsolete. Only companies using precision-engineered, coated, and laser-etched rollers will dominate. That’s where gravion comes in:
- Ultra-precise geometriesfor peak efficiency
- Coatings and finishesto maximize durability
- Zero-acid productionfor true sustainability
- Custom embossing freedomacross 18+ product groups
Real-World Proof: Why Competitors Switch
gravion isn’t just theoretical. Global brands who once sourced rollers from other suppliers are switching to us for a reason:
- Faster production, smoother lines, fewer rejects
- Sharper, cleaner embossing patterns that customers notice
- Sustainable, energy-efficient production that saves money
Even competitors rely on gravion when they need quality, precision, and design freedom they can’t achieve themselves.
