From Bamboo Grove to Bathroom Roll: The Process
Bamboo toilet paper starts with bamboo that’s turned into pulp, refined and rolled, all without plastic or harsh chemicals. Here’s how we make it happen.
Step 1. Harvest Sustainable Bamboo
The journey begins with sustainably sourced bamboo. Unlike trees, which take decades to mature, bamboo can grow up to 3 feet per day. It also regenerates after harvesting without the need for replanting.
In other words, bamboo is an incredibly renewable resource.
We have high standards in our sustainability mission, which is why we’re proud to source our bamboo from FSC-certified farms. The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) is a third-party, largely recognized nonprofit organization that sets the standards for responsible forest management. That includes bamboo forests, too!
An FSC certification confirms three key things about our bamboo farms:
-
They preserve biological diversity.
-
They benefit the lives of local people and workers.
-
They ensure the process sustains economic viability.

Step 2. Process the Bamboo Into Pulp
Once workers harvest bamboo stalks, they cut them into smaller pieces and break them down into a soft, fibrous pulp. The bamboo is ready to transform into sheets.
Step 3. Create Soft, Strong Bamboo Tissue
Workers then refine the bamboo pulp to create a smooth, premium-quality paper. Our design and embossing make the paper soft and gentle on your skin.
Each roll is 3-ply for maximum softness, strength and absorbency. (It’s also biodegradable and septic-safe.)

Step 4. Cut and Roll the Toilet Paper
Next, workers press, dry and roll the bamboo paper into large logs, then cut them into individual toilet paper rolls. This process produces consistency in thickness and quality, giving you a reliable and luxurious experience with every use.

Step 5. Wrap in Plastic-Free, Eco-Friendly Packaging
Once the rolls are ready, we wrap them in 100% recycled paper and pack them in fully recyclable cardboard boxes. No plastic, ever.
Our commitment to zero-waste packaging means we design every part of our products, from tree-free toilet paper to wrappers and boxes, to be as sustainable as possible.
