Why Choose Branded Tissue Paper?
The World's Most Sustainable Custom Tissue Paper
Recycled Content
We are proud to be one of the few companies offering 100% recycled tissue paper. All of our tissue paper is made of 20% post-consumer content. The recycled content percentages refer to the paper fibers only.
Learn why 100% recycled is a critical component of sustainable tissue paper.
Eco Features
We work tirelessly to ensure our product is as environmentally friendly as possible. Our tissue paper is not only 100% recycled, but is also pH neutral and processed chlorine free.
Our tissue paper is also FSC Certified, sourced from Seaman Paper, which holds FSC Chain-of-Custody certification.
Ink
Take your sustainability to the next level with black Algae Ink. Our latest innovation in tissue printing, Algae Ink is a carbon-negative technology. Tissue's translucenty means Algae Ink is softer on tissue when compared to paper mailers. MOQ is 25 reams. Contact us to request a quote.
Or, choose your own custom PMS color, which is printed with water-based ink.
End-Of-Life
Our tissue is recyclable, naturally biodegradable, and compostable. It is also free of glitter, foil, plastic and other additives that can contaminate recyclers and composters.

Is your custom tissue paper recyclable, biodegradable, or compostable?
The end-of-life of custom printed tissue paper.
Most tissue paper on the market (including ours) is labeled as recyclable. Technically, all tissue paper free of glitter and foil is recyclable and can be repulped and turned back into another form of paper.
However, for a municipality to accept an item for recycling, the facility must have the infrastructure to sort the material and profitable markets to sell into. Many municipalities don’t accept tissue paper for recycling, even if labeled as recyclable, because it is low-grade, even 100% virgin tissue paper, so it isn’t easy for them to find buyers willing to pay for it.
The good news is that tissue paper free of glitter, plastic, and foils is accepted at many compost facilities and can be home-composted. It can be a reasonably healthy addition to a compost pile because it absorbs excess moisture generated by food waste and bioplastics. When composting tissue paper, please ensure it has no foil, glitter, or shiny coating.
If you plan on incorporating custom tissue paper into your eCommerce packaging strategy, we recommend avoiding a blanket statement such as “our tissue paper is 100% recyclable” in favor of “recyclable; check with your local facilities.” Learn more about tissue paper end-of-life on our blog.
Do you offer branded tissue paper samples?
Visualizing your design prior to print.
We do not offer custom design samples, but we share a digital proof designed to show the design layout, text accuracy, image proportion, and artwork placement on the tissue sheet. You will receive a digital proof within three days after order placement.
We offer free samples of our stock tissue paper so that you can get a feel for our materials. We also provide samples of the work produced by other brands we serve, so you can get a feel for print quality - contact us for more details.
I don't need 10 reams of tissue paper. What are my options?
Smaller quantities of 100% recycled tissue paper.
We cannot offer custom branding on less than ten reams of tissue paper because our tissue is printed flexographically. Flexographic printing is a process that requires printing plates, relatively long setup times, and fixed costs that only make sense if at least ten reams are being printed at a time.
We recognize that not all brands are ready for this much tissue! As such, we offer plain white and plain Kraft tissue paper, as well as a variety of gorgeous, patterned tissue paper that are all available in reams of 480 sheets. Shop stock tissue paper here.
Why do I need custom tissue paper?
Custom tissue paper and perceived value.
Branded tissue paper can increase the perceived value of your product by 24%, and 75% of consumers want to receive orders in eco-friendly packaging. A critical part of the unboxing experience, personalized tissue paper shows that you put thought into every aspect of the process.
Your products need protection; why not do it in style? Plus, instead of filling your box with harmful plastic, you’ll fill it with 100% recycled paper. Custom printed tissue paper will make your customers happier than drab plastic- it’s like opening a holiday gift whenever they get a package from you. Not only will it make them happy, but it’ll also make them more likely to reorder. Because of its recycled content, you can make your own pretty tissue paper and feel good about sending it out into the world. That’s the EcoEnclose difference.
Why is EcoEnclose tissue paper eco-friendly?
100% recycled content matters.
The vast majority of tissue paper on the market today is made with virgin tree fibers. Much of it is bleached and heavily dyed.
EcoEnclose is one of the few companies offering 100% recycled tissue paper, proudly manufactured and printed in the USA. The recycled content in the paper comes from pre-consumer waste (such as scraps from printing lines and coffee filter manufacturing) and post-consumer waste (such as copy paper). The recycled content is sourced within hundreds of miles of the mill. Our fully customizable tissue paper is also FSC certified.
While any kind of tissue paper for sale poses a unique challenge for recycling due to its short fibers, 20% of our decorative tissue paper is still made from post-consumer content. 100% recycled tissue paper isn’t quite as soft as virgin tissue paper, making it less ideal for kitchens, restaurants, or bathrooms. What makes it less attractive for other uses makes our tissue paper for packaging the ideal choice for bulk tissue paper that you can use in your shipped packages.
EcoEnclose has lots of void fill options. Which is right for my business?
Tissue paper, corrugated bubble, Flexi-Hex, and more.
Are you debating between tissue paper packaging, ornament paper shred, and our other cushioning options? We get it! There are a lot of attractive options for protective and decorative packaging.
Explore our Definitive Guide to Protective Packaging to learn what void fill is, when you need it and when you can forgo it, and what functionality you need from it for your specific packaging requirements.
Here you’ll learn if and when tissue paper is the right solution for your business versus when our alternatives are a better fit.
