A method for making tissue paper

A method of making tissue paper in which a fibrous web (W) is formed in a forming section (2) and transferred to a Yankee drying cylinder (12) in a non-dewatering transfer nip (TN) formed between the Yankee drying cylinder (12) and a shoe roll (14), the Yankee drying cylinder (12) having a cylindrical outer surface (13) and being arranged to be rotatable about an axis of rotation (A), the shoe roll (14) comprising a shoe (15) that is arranged to act against the Yankee drying cylinder (12), and the shoe roll (14) further comprising a rotatable flexible jacket (16) that is arranged to run in a loop around the shoe (15), in which method a carrier fabric (10) runs in a loop around the shoe roll (14) and follows the fibrous web (W) into the transfer nip (TN), the carrier fabric (10) having a structured surface facing the fibrous web (W) such that a three-dimensional pattern can be imprinted into the fibrous web (W) by the carrier fabric (10) and the structured surface of the carrier fabric (10) having land areas (29) and open areas (30), and wherein the method comprises forming the transfer nip (TN) between the shoe (15) and the cylindrical outer surface (13) of the Yankee drying cylinder (12) and wherein the length (L) of the transfer nip (TN) in the circumferential direction of the Yankee drying cylinder (12) is in the range of 30 mm-100 mm and wherein the method comprises application of a chemical coating on the cylindrical outer surface (13) of the Yankee drying cylinder (12) and creping the fibrous web (W) from the cylindrical outer surface (13) of the Yankee drying cylinder (12), wherein the land areas (29) of the structured surface of the carrier fabric (10) constitute 15%-90% of the total surface area of that side of the carrier fabric (10) that faces the fibrous web (W) and wherein the linear load in the transfer nip is selected such that the peak pressure in the transfer nip (TN) is in the range of 2 MPa-8 MPa when the pressure in the transfer nip (TN) is defined as the force of the linear load in the transfer nip (TN) divided by the sum of the land areas (29) of that part of the carrier fabric (10) that is in the transfer nip (TN) in a given moment.
