Do you know why tissue comes in various variations, such as facial tissue, toilet roll, and kitchen towel? The answer is because each variety of tissue has different properties designed to maximize the functionality of the tissue based on where it is used. This time, we will explain the differences between these variations.
Facial Tissue
Facial tissue is made of medium length cellulose fiber. So, facial tissue has a soft texture but does not tear easily. Therefore, facial tissue is suitable for your daily use, and is also suitable to use with beauty products or for babies because facial tissue is safe to use on sensitive skin such as facial skin and baby skin.
Clean Plus Tissue offers facial tissue in various forms as follows:

250 sheet: suitable for your daily needs at home or at work. |

180 sheet: slightly smaller than 250 sheets and can be placed in more limited spaces such as your car. |

Travel Pack 50 sheet: has a small size which is easy to store in a bag so that it is practical to carry around when travelling. |

Pop Up 200 sheets: suitable for meeting dining table needs such as wiping hands and mouth because this tissue is in the shape of a box so it doesn’t take up space on the dining table. |

1kg: a more economical price for its size so it is more economical to use as stock or refill tissue boxes. |
Toilet Roll
You surely know that throwing tissues into the toilet can cause blockages. Toilet tissue is an exception to that fact. This is because toilet tissue is made of short cellulose fibers so that when mixed with water, unlike other tissues, toilet tissue will dissolve. Once dissolved, the tissue will be carried away by the flow of toilet water without causing blockages. However, toilet paper is not suitable for wiping wet hands or for beauty products because it tears easily.
Kitchen Towel dan Hand Towel
Kitchen towels and hand towels are thicker than facial tissue and are made of long cellulose fibers. Therefore, kitchen towels and hand towels have a slightly rough texture, very high absorption capacity, and are at least prone to tearing compared to facial tissue and toilet tissue. This makes kitchen towels and hand towels suitable for kitchen purposes such as soaking up more oil in fried foods. Hand towels are also perfect to wipe dirty or wet hands as they do not tear easily with water. However, we do not recommend using a kitchen towel for toilet and beauty or vanity purposes because of its insoluble texture and slightly rough texture.
In conclusion, there is no tissue that is suitable for use in all situations. Each type of tissue specializes in different uses and Clean Plus Tissue offers you a wide variety of tissues for all your daily needs.
