But don’t worry, we do our best to make sure it’s still comfy and strong for your planet-loving tushy.īamboo, on the other hand, has softness in its corner. The paper we use has been recycled multiple times before it reaches its final TP form, so the fibres are a bit more worn than what you’d find in a roll made from virgin trees. Let us beat you to the punch: recycled loo roll isn’t the softest thing going round. Winner: Recycled by a whisker – bamboo fights a good fight, but it takes a bit more energy to process and costs a little more to make. Woah! So it helps save forests and is totally biodegradable, too – how’s that for a one-two punch? In fact, bamboo toilet paper needs almost 90% less land per sheet to produce than traditional TP. Bamboo is the world’s fastest growing plant (it can grow up to a metre in just one day), so it can be harvested way more frequently than trees. Here comes bamboo toilet paper, another eco heavyweight. Take that, deforestation! Plus, since it’s already paper, there’s less energy needed to transform the fibres into TP than with traditional wood. Recycled toilet paper comes out swinging – it’s made from 100% recycled post consumer paper, aka recycled school and office paper that’s already in circulation.
(And it’s basically like asking us to choose between our children, so we really hope you appreciate it.) We often get asked whether bamboo or recycled is the better option to wipe your bum, so we’ve pitted them against each other in the ring.
Do you hear that? It’s the sound of two toilet paper rolls ready to rumble.
