Charmin

Is Charmin made from renewable material? Our paper products are made of a pulp blend that includes sustainably-sourced, fast-growing renewable fibers. 100% of our virgin fibers come from sources that have been 3rd party certified to ensure they adhere to responsible sourcing principles and criteria.

Flushable wipes must immediately start breaking down in water in order to be safe for septic systems. In order for this to happen, they must be plastic-free and be made from natural plant-based fibers. An added feature you can look for is biodegradability. Biodegradable flushable wipes are even more septic-safe [1].

The difference is in how the fibers break down (or don't break down) in water over time. Flushable wipes are manufactured using wood pulp fibers and are engineered to lose strength as they move through properly maintained plumbing and sewage systems. And they sink, not float, so are safe in septic systems.

Yes. Charmin is septic safe and thoroughly tested to ensure it will settle in a septic tank and then undergo biodegradation in the tank.

Mehoopany, Pennsylvania Where Does Charmin Toilet Paper Come From? The company Procter & Gamble gets about 33% of the pulp needed to make toilet paper as well as other hygiene products from Canada's boreal forest. The product is manufactured in the United States. The company's largest factory is located in Mehoopany, Pennsylvania.

Ever wondered where the name Charmin came from? An employee at the Hoberg Paper Company in Green Bay, Wisconsin, once described their toilet paper as “charming” and boom just like that Charmin was born. The design reflected feminine fashions of the time. Charmin's always been known to be soft like a baby's bottom.

The Hoberg Paper Company invented Charmin toilet paper in 1928. It quickly became a necessity for everyone instead of a luxury item reserved only for the very wealthy. They eventually changed the name to Charmin Paper Company in 1950 and were later acquired by Procter & Gamble in 1957.

We know, we know. The package says “flushable.” And technically, those wipes are “flushable” – in the sense that they will flush down the toilet. But so will golf balls, Legos, plastic army men, pens, etc., but you probably don't want those in your plumbing.

The Truth About “Flushable” Wipes Wrong! Even though these wipes do eventually break down, they take a longer amount of time to do so compared to toilet paper. Since the breakdown of wet wipes isn't as rapid, clogged pipes and blockages occur more frequently.

The reason flushable wipes aren't truly flushable is that many are “designed to be stronger and tougher than toilet paper,” says Jake Romano, general manager for John The Plumber Toronto. “While they will degrade in water, they don't degrade nearly as quickly as toilet paper,” he says.

So, Should I Flush Flushable Wipes? Manufacturers provide test results stating that flushable wipes are deemed safe to flush - however, there is evidence that supports the flushing of these wipes can increase the risk of clogged sewer lines and require pumping of septic tanks more often.

Charmin is among the worst offenders, earning an F in the report's scorecard, which grades household tissue brands based on their sustainability for forests. Charmin uses zero recycled content in its toilet paper, relying entirely on virgin fiber for its tissue products.

Unfortunately, Procter & Gamble, the maker of Charmin, refuses to stop making its toilet paper from intact boreal forests, which has dire impacts on the global climate, treasured wildlife, and the ways of life of Indigenous Peoples.
