Facial Tissue FAQs
Yes. Our facial tissues are unbleached and free from harsh chemicals, dyes, and added fragrance — making them gentler on sensitive skin than tissue treated with those additives.
Yes. Bamboo pulp is a natural, plant-based fiber, so it breaks down the same way regular paper does — without leaving behind synthetic residue.
Because it's unbleached. Bright-white tissue usually gets that color from chlorine bleaching — we skip that step, so the natural, slightly warmer tone of bamboo pulp comes through instead.
No. Bamboo fibers are naturally fine and tightly woven, so they hold together well during use instead of breaking apart and leaving bits behind.
No — despite the name, bamboo isn't a tree, it's a grass. Its roots stay alive underground after harvesting and send up new shoots on their own, so there's no replanting or uprooting involved. A tree takes 20-30 years to mature and cutting it kills the plant, but a bamboo stalk can be harvested in 3-5 years while the plant keeps regenerating from the same root system — that's exactly what makes bamboo paper a renewable alternative to tree-based tissue.
