Cascades Tissue Group recently announced the launch of Cascades Moka 100 percent recycled unbleached bathroom tissue.
Beige in appearance, Cascades Moka offers commercial purchasers high hygienic qualities and softness while significantly reducing the environmental impact associated with manufacturing a highly common, yet also single-use product. In addition to eliminating chemical whitening, Cascades’ value-added tissue product is made of a pulp mix composed of 100 percent recycled fiber, 80 percent of which is post-consumer material and 20 percent are recovered corrugated boxes. The product is also offset with 100 percent Green-e certified renewable wind electricity; saving 2,500 pounds of CO2 emissions for each ton produced.
“Beige is the new green, at least as it relates to towel and tissue,” said Cascades Tissue Group CEO Suzanne Blanchet, who personally conceived and championed Moka bath tissue’s development. “The last several years have brought about countless habit changes meant to preserve the environment. The quality of this bath tissue hasn’t been sacrificed one bit, so adjusting to a new color seems like a small step to take for even greater sustainability.”
