When you throw the toilet paper rolls into the trolley, you may not stop to think about which are made in Australia. If you're already purchasing recycled, you're already doing a fantastic job of being conscious of your environmental impact. So, maybe, once you've locked down the habit of looking out for recycled TP, you might want to get into the habit of going for Australian made.
"Why," you may ask. Well, just like recycled toilet paper is eco-friendly because it reduces tree lopping, Australian made products are eco-friendly because they reduce transport emissions. While we cast no judgement on those who expect their authentic Cypriot halloumi to come from Cyprus, there's nothing authentic about toilet paper from abroad. It also means that you are helping to divert Australian waste paper from landfill for a more useful purpose. Basically, we can reduce Australian landfill, reduce emissions, and support local businesses. We can make it better down here.
In fact, making it down here also allows us to control the process, ensure the quality and reduce the environmental impacts as much as humanly possible.
While there are a few recycled brands now made in Australia, only one is Australian-owned and made. Surprise, it's us.
icare is Australian owned, with three generations of recycled toilet paper production running through our family business.
Being Australian made and owned means we have a super tight grip on quality control, ensure our own high standards are met. We limit transport impacts by sourcing our recycled paper locally, and we guarantee the quality of our toilet paper by making it onsite in our own facilities.
With such control, we've been able to make a recycled toilet paper product that stacks up as good, if not better, than other local and international virgin brands.
icare is Australia's leading recycled toilet paper brand.
