We do our Triple Softy Luxury toilet rolls which are made by Accroll who have a good environmental policy, its made in the UK and checks out really well. Vanessa our Cornish area rep helped with a debate and many green businesses were using Nouvelle. However someone posted a report with the following damning detail in:
"In the UK, Nouvelle is the premier brand of recycled toilet tissue, but Nouvelle is owned by tissue giant Georgia Pacific – the company that came out worst in the 2006 WWF sustainability survey. Georgia Pacific’s parent company, Koch Industries, has, according to the Ethical Consumer, been part of a team advising George Bush on developing a conservative ‘environmentalism for the 21st century’ – one that includes more logging and dam-building".
So there you go, you think you've found a trusted brand but its all front of house, see behind the label first. So you could do a lot worse than use the Triple softy or any other of our greener recycled and sustainable paper tissue products.
