Opt for toilet paper wrapped in paper instead of plastic. It s not a huge issue that toilet paper is wrapped in polythene because we can recycle it along with carrier bags at our local supermarket but we still like to reduce plastic use as much as possible.

As with seventh generation toilet paper the rolls come individually wrapped in thin paper. What these rolls have that seventh gen s don t is the statement 50 of our profits are donated to build toilets. You can find a location here.

If you already buy recycled toilet paper and simply want to avoid plastic packaging there are easy alternatives. If you also want to avoid the plastic contained in the actual toilet paper it becomes a little more difficult. I ve been leaning towards seventh generation individually wrapped 2 ply rolls of toilet paper because they are not only plastic free but they also contain the highest percentage of post consumer recycled content i ve been able to find. Look for toilet paper at an office supply store or order from amazon.

One more plastic problem solved.

100 recycled toilet paper. In fact zero wasters especially those of us based in the uk have had a bit of a bum deal when it comes to finding loo roll wrapped in paper instead of plastic. If you already buy recycled toilet paper and simply want to avoid plastic packaging there are easy alternatives. I have since switched to a different brand of toilet paper.

Plastic free toilet paper thanks to akiyo. I do deeply admire the charitable giving nature of who gives a crap and of course the plastic free element.
