Types of Paper Towels
Not all paper towels are built the same. The right choice depends on the task at hand and where you plan to use them.
- Kitchen paper towels:These are the everyday essential for countertops, spills and drying hands, coming in a range of ply options and perforated for easy tearing for greater convenience.
- Hard roll paper towels:Designed for dispensers commonly found in garages, workshops and restrooms, hard roll paper towels deliver a continuous feed that holds up to frequent, high-volume use.
- Shop towels:Built for tough cleanup jobs, shop towels offer greater wet strength and thickness to handle grease, grime and workshop messes that would overwhelm a standard kitchen roll.
- Multi-fold hand towels:A practical choice for busy bathrooms and break rooms, multi-fold hand towels stack neatly in dispensers and offer a hygienic single-use format for shared spaces.
Buying in bulk is a smart way to stay stocked in busy households, workshops and high-traffic spaces, delivering better value without sacrificing quality.
How to Choose the Right Paper Towels
With so many options on the shelf, it helps to know what to look for before you buy.
- Absorbency:Look for soft paper towels with high absorbency for everyday kitchen spills, where soaking up liquid quickly is the priority.
- Wet strength:Strong paper towels that hold together when wet are essential for scrubbing surfaces or handling heavier cleaning tasks without falling apart mid-job.
- Thickness:Multi-ply paper towels offer more cushion and durability, while single-ply options are lighter and better suited for quick, light-duty tasks.
- Sheet size and format:Select-a-size paper towel rolls let you use only what you need, which helps reduce waste and stretch each roll further.
