Softer. Stronger. Smarter.
PlantPaper is our response to an industry and a hygienic practice in dire need of an update. When we first began developing PlantPaper in 2016, we knew it wouldn’t be enough just to make a cleaner toilet paper; it had to be a better toilet paper—a toilet paper we ourselves would want to use. A trade-up, not a trade-off. A toilet paper without compromise.
The Softest on the Planet
Setting a new industry standard for softness. Thicker, more absorptive, three ply, with a unique double sided embossing pattern.
FSC-Certified bamboo
Fast-growing, carbon-neutral, and with a unique fiber composition, bamboo is an ideal source of raw material for producing strong, sustainable toilet paper without any harsh chemicals.
WHY NOT TREE PAPER?
There is nothing clean about toilet paper as we know it.
Old growth trees
Conventional toilet paper relies on trees cut down in the Canadian boreal forest. This forest is one of the largest carbon sinks on the planet, and an essential line of defense against climate change.
Carbon intensive
Tree paper requires huge amounts of energy and waterto break down into pulp–almost 40 gallons per roll.
Harsh chemicals
The fluffier and whiter the paper, the more intensive chemical processing it requires.
Old growth forests are complex ecosystems that develop over the course of centuries or millenia. Once cut down, they never regain their capacity for carbon storage or their ability to sustain wildlife.
Chemicals used in the bleaching process can combine with compounds in the environment to form dioxins and furans—persistent organic pollutants.
WHY BAMBOO?
Bamboo is the world’s fastest growing plant.
Bamboo is the fastest growing plant on the planet, capable ofgrowing up to 3.5 feet per day.
Bamboo stores 3x more carbon than a stand of trees and produces 35% more oxygen.
Pulping bamboo requires 30% less water than pulping trees.
The more bamboo is harvested, the faster it grows. A bamboo grove may be able to produce as much as 10x more usable fiber for paper than a forest of equivalent size. Bamboo stores up to 40% of its carbon underground, carbon that remains intact even when it’s harvested.
