WHAT DOES IT REPLACE?
Paper tissues! Every day 51 million facial tissues are used in the US, which is an unnecessary waste of water, energy and creates needless pollution for only one use.
Deforestation puts the "issue" in tissue. Tissues cause more damage than you might think. Every day more than 41 million trees are cut down around the world. The paper and pulp industry is the third-largest industrial emitter of global warming gasses. Every year around 8,000,000 trees are cut down to make facial tissues for the US alone.
Deforestation can lead to a direct loss of wildlife habitat. The removal of trees reduces available food, shelter, and breeding habitat. It also removes the miraculous effect the trees have of cleaning our carbon emissions to breathable oxygen - helping to prevent climate change. Every time you blow your nose with a LastTissue, you save 2 liters of water.
⚡It takes 3 times more energy to produce paper tissues compared to the reusable cotton tissues. With one LastTissue pack, you will save the planet from more than +3100 single-use tissues as well as their plastic packaging.
BORING (BUT USEFUL) STUFF
LastTissue contains 6, 7" X 7" organic cotton tissues in a silicone case.
How to use: Simply take a tissue from the bottom, use it, and then store it on top of the marked-tissue barrier. This way, you’ll push the clean tissues down, making them ready to use and dividing them from the used. You’ll know you’re on your last tissue when the marked one appears - that means it’s cleaning time. After washing, you repack and use them all over again.
No need to worry about wrinkles or folding, just stuff them in. It's easy.
