The 24-pack has been selling well – albeit not in spectacular fashion. For most members, 24 rolls is more than they can chew. But now, we have a 6-pack! And for the next 2 weeks, they’re 11% off at $6.97 a pack. Bear in mind: they are double-rolls, with 360 sheets – so they will last. And last.
Here is what you need to know:
• 3-ply double-length - soft and strong
• 100% recycled – FSC Certified – No plastic packaging
• Ink, chlorine and BPA free. Septic-safe
• Made in Milperra, Sydney (from imported pulp)
• 50% of profits donated to animal shelters and pet rescue
• In Marketplace: Pantry ➡️ Household ➡️ Paper Goods
However, the most important thing is this:
• Most toilet paper is made from virgin pulp, which is made from trees. Somewhere between 3m and 4m trees are cut down every year to make toilet paper for Australian families.
• The impact is significant:
o It takes 50% more energy and 90% more water to produce virgin-pulp paper than recycled paper
o The 3m – 4m trees needed to make pulp – a mix of softwood and hardwood – will release between 1m and 2m tonnes of CO2 over the (short) life of the toilet paper. That amounts to between 0.5% and 1% of Australia’s total emissions. That may not sound like much, but of all the ways we need to employ to reduce emissions, switching to recycled toilet paper sounds like an easy one.
o BTW: recycled toilet paper is not made from used loo paper: it’s made from clean office paper, cardboard, junk mail etc.
