Toilet paper, like any product in today’s market, comes in many shapes, sizes, prices, colours, and brands. However, there are many factors to consider when buying branded items compared to the cheaper alternatives and this is no different when it comes to the toilet paper world. That is why within this blog, we will take you through:
- The major factors to consider when it comes to buying toilet paper
- What toilet paper is right for you (in depth)
- What we do here at Galleon Supplies
Major Factors To Consider:
First of all, let’s take a look at the major factors to consider when it comes to toilet paper which can be seen in a list format below:
- Absorbency
- Dissolvability
- Dry strength
- Wet strength
- Thickness
- Ply-separation
- Level of ply
- How easily the sheets tear off the roll
- Affordability
With these factors in mind, cheap toilet paper often gets a negative stigma surrounding its quality or its durability as you begin to wipe but in actual fact, it is quite the opposite. Here at Galleon Supplies, we have cheap toilet paper that performs just as effectively as any branded toilet roll manufacturer on the market. As such, we are going to take you through the process of buying that perfect cheap loo roll for your personal toiletry needs.
Nothing is worse than investing in top of the range, branded toilet roll when all that it’s inevitably going to do is be flushed down the toilet. People tend to dismiss a perfectly suitable cheap toilet roll alternative which will perform just as, if not, better than branded toilet roll. Not to mention, cheap toilet rolls come in greater quantities too!
On top of that, you want to make sure to get toilet paper that dissolves easily in your toilet so it doesn’t clog your pipes and cause a septic catastrophe. See our blog ‘can you flush wet ones down the toilet’ for more information about drainage clogs and the common mistake people make when disposing of toilet wipes.
Another thing that’s worth pointing out is that cheap toilet paper from non-reputable manufacturers sometimes won’t break down in water. However, here at Galleon supplies, we can assure you that our cheap toilet roll is strong and dissolvable enough for you to experience the perfect wipe and with no toilet disasters. On the flip side, expensive three-ply toilet paper (which will be discussed later) can sometimes give the same issue if too much is put down the loo at a time as it is too thick for the water to break down.
Finally, expensive toilet paper may not guarantee a better clean, and you’ll still use more anyway just to get a good clean thus, increasing your costs when purchasing cheap toilet rolls which is something to consider if you are on a tighter budget.
What Toilet Paper Is Best For You (In More Depth)
As previously mentioned in the intro of this article, there are many variables which contribute to the perfect toilet paper. As such, we have highlighted said variables below:
- Ply
Ply refers to the number of plies/layers in a singular toilet paper sheet. For example, a 2-ply toilet paper (2 layers) is the most common, but you’ll also find 1-ply, which dissolves faster, and 3-ply, which feels more luxurious. Our cheap toilet roll products come with 2 ply paper and are ideal for everyday toiletry use. It’s not too soft it breaks when wiping and not too thick it potentially clogs the toilet.
- Price
You don’t have to spend a fortune to get high quality toilet paper. More importantly, it pays off to buy in bulk. See our blog on why you should purchase hygiene products in bulk. The more sheets per roll and the more rolls per package, the less you’ll spend overall which seems like a win-win!
- Septic Safe
you’re worried about clogging your toilet system, a high ply toilet roll is not advised which tends to be the more expensive and branded toilet paper products. However, cheap toilet rolls here at Galleon supplies come in 2 ply paper which leaves a lesser avenue for them to clog up your toilets.
- Eco-Friendly
Products adhering to eco-friendly procedures is definitely a hot topic that has generated a lot of noise in recent years and this is no different to the toilet paper universe. Eco toilet paper is either made from recycled paper (which is the most sustainable option) or bamboo. If you do opt for traditional tree-pulp toilet paper, you can check whether it’s made using sustainably-harvested sources. If this is something that applies to you, then we have it here at Galleon Supplies.
We hope we have provided you with sufficient information about the benefits of switching towards a cheaper toilet roll as opposed to branded toilet paper. Here at Galleon Supplies, if you are interested in our cheap toilet roll range, visit our website or alternatively, fill out our contact form.
