Have you ever thought what life was like without bathroom tissue?

There is almost no alternative to bathroom tissue in our society and nearly every household in Europe*  today buys bathroom tissue. But that does not mean that all bathroom tissue provides adequate hygiene. The quality of bathroom tissue has evolved over the decades from a harsh, non-absorbent product to a soft paper product that performs to a greater or lesser degree, depending on the composition of the product. Over time, Georgia-Pacific has developed the quality of its bathroom tissue to maintain a competitive advantage thanks to the ongoing development of its composition which provides everything a consumer could expect from bathroom tissue: softness, thickness, resistance and absorption. These qualities ensure adequate wiping and a barrier of reassurance that the user’s hand does not come into contact with the body’s excrement and the ensuing germs, leaving a feeling of cleanliness. Georgia-Pacific’s premium bathroom tissue products encompass all theses qualities and are sold across EMEA under the Lotus®, Moltonel®, Colhogar®, Delica®  brands as well as many Private Labels produced by Georgia-Pacific.

Georgia-Pacific has developed the hygienic aspect of bathroom tissue use in public washrooms with single sheet dispensing technology. Prevention of cross-contamination begins with Georgia-Pacific’s Away-From-Home range of SmartOne® single sheet bathroom tissue dispensers.  Public washrooms can often have a problem with littered toilet paper, when users take more than they need. This can leave superfluous paper on the floor and cause the washrooms to become dirty and unhygienic in appearance. The SmartOne® single sheet dispensing system avoids this configuration.
