Deciding Which Type of Toilet Paper is Best For Your Home Or Commercial Needs


Most people believe that there is only one type of toilet paper, but that is certainly not the case. Although they appear to be similar, the various paper products available in grocery stores, pharmacies, bulk shopping membership stores, and online on janitorial supply websites have certain things that differentiate them from each other, such as size, weight, softness, and absorption. Since there are many different varieties of paper available for home and commercial use, before purchasing you must first decide which type of paper is best suited to your needs-1-ply versus 2-ply, standard versus jumbo, or coreless versus regular. But before you can decide which type is best for your needs, you have to understand the differences in the various types of paper.

The quality of toilet tissue is often thought of by the number of plies or stacked sheets the restroom paper is made of. There is 1-ply, 2-ply, and higher. What is thought of as commercial quality restroom paper is often 1-ply and sometimes has a small amount of non-pulped, non-bleached/paper in it. On the other hand, 2-ply paper has 2 stacked sheets and is therefore thicker and somewhat textured to provide more softness, so it is thought of as the more luxurious or higher quality restroom paper. In addition to making it softer, the second ply makes it more durable than 1-ply. The higher ply toilet tissue, or premium toilet paper, often has lotion or wax and usually has 2 or more plies of very finely pulped paper in it. The 2-ply restroom paper is the most commonly used worldwide, but 1-ply is also available in most countries as a less expensive option.

The difference between jumbo and standard toilet paper rolls is the size of the roll and the amount of toilet tissue on each roll. Jumbo restroom paper contains more paper per roll than regular (or standard) restroom paper. Therefore, it is believed that jumbo toilet tissue can reduce costs and maintenance time because jumbo toilet tissue rolls need to be changed less frequently than standard toilet tissue rolls. Jumbo toilet tissue rolls are most commonly used in the commercial setting, such as office buildings, restaurants, or department stores. Since jumbo toilet paper rolls are larger, they need special dispensers that can hold the "jumbo" or larger rolls. Jumbo rolls come in both 1-ply and 2-ply varieties.

The difference between coreless and regular toilet tissue is whether or not the tissue is wound on a cardboard roll. Coreless paper provides more tissue per roll and, therefore, also requires a special coreless restroom paper dispenser. Jumbo coreless toilet paper is ideal for high-traffic areas such as offices, restaurants, or bars that have excessive restroom paper use because jumbo rolls help to reduce run-outs and reduce costs because you have to change the coreless toilet paper rolls less frequently than standard toilet tissue rolls. This is because each coreless jumbo paper roll is equivalent in length to nearly 5 standard toilet paper rolls. Coreless paper also comes in 1-ply and 2-ply varieties.

Although at a first glance all toilet paper appears to be similar, the available paper products have differentiating factors including number of plies, size of the roll, and the core. Review the differentiating factors and then decide which type of toilet paper is best suited to your home or commercial needs.

Choosing the Right Printer Paper for Your Needs


Many people think that it isn't important what kind of printer paper they use. Paper is paper right? I would have to disagree. First, you need to figure out what you are going to use the paper for. The second thing to determine is the right kind of paper for the kind of printer you own. Not all paper is suitable for all kinds of printers.

When buying printer paper, there are a number of factors to consider. These include the brightness rating, the weight of the paper and the purpose it was designed for. We will consider each of these factors in turn below.

What is the brightness rating?

Brightness of the paper refers to how well the paper reflects light. Many people confuse whiteness with brightness. The higher the brightness rating of a page, the more vibrant and alive the colors printed on it will appear. The brightness rating of the page can make the difference between a dull looking picture and a picture that looks alive and ready to jump off the page. Whiteness refers to the actual shade of color of the paper and how close it is to pure white.

Paper weight - What does it matter?

The paper weight rating is determined by the weight in pounds of a ream of 500 sheets of that particular paper type. In most other countries other than the United States, the weight rating is in grams instead of pounds.

The heavier the paper rating, the thicker and heavier each sheet of paper will be. What does that mean in practical terms? First, the paper will feel more substantial in your hand. The heavier the paper, the stiffer it will feel in your hand. Second, it is less likely to jam in the printer while printing. Third, it tends to feel more professional to the average person. Combining a good paper weight with a high brightness rating makes for a good foundation for printing that important presentation of yours on.

Choosing the right Paper on Purpose

To get the very best results, you choose look to choose paper based on what you plan to do with it. All purpose paper is generally the cheapest kind of paper but it also tends to give you poorer results when printing pictures or color on it. Printer paper designed to go through an inkjet printer will generally preform better on an inkjet printer than general purpose paper will. It is more expensive but the results speak for themselves. Inkjet printer paper is also usually treated with a special coating that will allow the color to stay bright and not simply get absorbed into the paper leading to a dull photo. Remember the purpose of the paper when you make your next paper purchase.

Understanding the paper brightness rating, the paper weight rating and the papers' stated purpose will go a long way towards your being able to get the most from your printer paper now and in the future.
