Recycled Paper Kitchen Rolls (to fund toilets!)
Who Gives a Crap? sells these fab kitchen rolls, made from post-consumer waste paper, and sold in colourful paper packaging. Known mostly for its recycled paper toilet roll, it’s now ventured into making a few other products, to help stop deforestation.
And this company donates 50% of profits to sanitation projects abroad, so that people have access to clean hygienic toilets.
Do not flush kitchen roll, it is designed to stay strong in water (so could block toilets). If the sheet is clean or lightly used, add (torn) to home compost. Oily sheets should be binned.
These absorbent tissues are ideal to wipe up spills on countertops, or wiping dusty areas. Each double-length roll has 135 strong sheets, in biodegradable 2-ply, with no scent, dye or inks.
The rolls are a bit shorter than perhaps you’re used to, but that’s okay. They work just as well, they are cut to this size to make shipping costs low, as they are mostly still sold online, for home delivery.
Because these rolls are in paper packaging, each roll is wrapped individually to keep out moisture. Wrapping them as two rolls in packaging would mean using plastic, and this company doesn’t want to do that.
Do These Paper Towels Cost More?
These recycled kitchen paper rolls are not more expensive than quality supermarket brands, and work just as well. So stock up and you’ll never get short again!
Super absorbent. And love that they’re eco-friendly.
Just as good and strong, as any other paper towels.
Why Choose Eco Kitchen Rolls?
Each year, millions of tree are chopped down daily (mostly in Boreal forests that are home to moose, elk, wolves and grizzly bears), just to make flimsy kitchen rolls, that are then wrapped in plastic. Just imagine the effect if everyone switched to recycled paper, bamboo or reusable cloths instead?
Did you know that in Japan, nobody uses disposable paper towels? It’s because 11% of land is arable, so people there don’t have the luxury of creating landfills or even ‘industrial composting heaps’. If you’re fed up of sorting waste into two or three bins, know that residents of one Japanese town have to recycle into 45 categories.
