Switch to Forest-Friendly Bathroom Tissue
Naked Paper Toilet Roll (use code englandnaturally for 10% discount) offers quality bathroom tissue made from recycled paper. A pack of this company’s 45 rolls costs less than £40.00, which works out at less than £1 a roll. Or buy 96 rolls, which works out way cheaper than conventional bathroom tissue.
Free from bleach and chemicals, that’s why it’s not super-white! Climate footprint is printed on the cardboard boxes, and the company gives back to those in need, for each purchase.
Just as soft and robust as supermarket loo roll, but better for the planet. Free from bleach and chemicals, that’s why it’s not super-white! Climate footprint is printed on the cardboard boxes, and the company gives back to those in need, for each purchase.
Each year, around 1 million trees are chopped down daily (mostly in Boreal forests that are home to moose, elk, wolves and grizzly bears), just to make toilet paper that is then wrapped in plastic. Just imagine the effect if everyone switched to recycled paper, sugar cane or bamboo rolls instead?
2-ply is the best choice to avoid clogs with sensitive plumbing systems, but still gives better comfort than 1-ply. It’s best to subscribe online with eco-brands (most brands are measured cost-per-roll instead of sheet). So although our recommended brands seem more expensive, they aren’t, as you get way more sheets per roll!
Order 24 rolls for ‘1 to 2 bums’ in your household, or 48 rolls for families and bulk orders neighbours, friends, offices etc.
Serious Tissues (toilet paper from cereal boxes!)
Serious Tissues sources all its materials from UK-based recycled cardboard and cereal boxes. This bathroom tissue is unbleached, ideal for people with sensitive skin.
Each roll contains 250 rolls of thick 2-ply paper, and uses non-chlorine bleach to remove inks. Made in the Midlands, this brand creates local jobs. And plants a tree, for each roll sold.
Great toilet paper, lasts for ages.
Recycled Paper Bathroom Tissue (that builds toilets!)

This company donates 50% of profits to charities abroad, that provide clean sanitation and toilets for people who have no access to them at present (that’s millions of people, who as a result can die from disease).

Why the Silly Name?
Because the company has Aussie roots, where the word ‘crap’ is not as rude as it is here! The company was co-founded by a man, who decided he was going to create a tree-free toilet roll brand that helped bring clean sanitation to developing countries.
He offered up his idea for crowdfunding, and legend has that he sat on the loo until he received all the money. Fortunately it only took some hours, and the company now sells worldwide.
Get the box of 48 rolls just under once a year for our house (mostly me and my husband, I work from home). It’s not as luxurious as 4-ply quilted puppy dog brand loo roll, but it’s absolutely fine and not at all rough.
It’s better for the planet, and our toddlers enjoy playing in the big box, once it’s empty.
The Good Roll (helps to build sanitation in Ghana)
The Good Roll is a Dutch brand of bathroom tissue, made from recycled paper and/or bamboo. And also donates 50% of profits to help build safe clean toilets abroad (in this case, Ghana).
The 2-ply paper is the perfect balance of comfort and affordability. Made from European recycled paper, the cellulose fibres absorbs moisture well, and the texture is comfy too. Their toilet rolls have 400 sheets (compared to 150 sheets of a supermarket toilet roll) making this way cheaper, especially on subscription.
The 3-ply is more luxurious, but a greener option if that’s why you use (not for sensitive plumbing systems, it could cause clogs).
Bumboo (quality 100% bamboo bathroom tissue)
Bumboo makes quality 3-ply rolls of bamboo toilet paper. For each single square of tissue you buy from them, they rewild double that area in nature.
This brand is made with bamboo – the world’s fastest-growing grass. Industrial bamboo is not the same as fresh shoots, eaten by pandas. It’s a more luxurious loo roll, but not locally-sourced as it has to be shipped from Asia. This brand is 100% bamboo, unlike some brands that are not.
