Tissue paper
Tissue paper products are often considered as simple products, however a lot of product research and development work is undertaken to meet consumer and sustainability expectations. Each characteristic is interlinked and influences its performances (like resistance, absorption, softness). We offer a range of methods, derived / improved from current test standards.
Twice a year our laboratory completes inter-laboratory test sessions to confirm the accuracy of our measurements. Microbiological and chemical analyses (including food contact for kitchen rolls) can be conducted within our network of laboratories. Application range • Toilet paper: kitchen rolls, tissues and other tissue-based papers Relevant tests THESE INTERNAL METHODS ARE DERIVED FROM ISO 12625: • POA/C0 – Sampling and conditioning of tissue paper products
• POA/A2b – Dimensions of tissue paper products • POA/B – Basis weight • POA/A2 – Thickness of tissue paper products • POA/A4 – Fibre composition • POA/C3 – Tensile strength of tissue paper products • POA/C31 – Pre-cut efficiency • POA/DO2 – Ball burst test • POA/C33 – Absorption of tissue paper • POA/C34 – Dispersion time of a toilet paper • POA/C35 – Colour / brightness measurement
