Paper Towels and the Environment

[edit]

Any one want to expand section on paper towels and environment?--Jeff 17:56, 1 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Vandalism

[edit]

I removed obvious vandalism "Paper is made from trees which make paper towels" by User:71.242.204.67, which has been there for almost 2 months. Blackboxxx (talk) 21:50, 3 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

That's not anything I'd call vandalism, it could be construed as poor wording especially when it states "Paper towels are made from wood", well one could consider it meaning it is processed from trees. Which by the way, I think it needs to state which kind of trees or wood is used in the production of the paper from which paper towels are made, is it the same source as regular writing paper for example?

Removed "Euro Paper Towels" mention

[edit]

Hi... I removed the following wording from the article - In Europe, domestic paper towels are know as Euro Paper Towels Europe is speciel (sic.) - because it is untrue and seems to be vandalism. It is certainly not the case in any European country I've been to (most of them). That said, if there was some factual basis for the statement, I invite it to be replaced with a reference.

It was a vandal just playing around. Soap 11:49, 10 August 2010 (UTC)Reply

Anyone want to add a section on the various formats of paper towels:

  • roll
  • Z-fold
  • C-fold
  • pull-from-the-center roll (don't know the real name)

Paper towel sheet size

[edit]

Are the sheet sizes smaller than they used to be? They're probably saying it's more economical ~Robinrobin (talk) 13:52, 12 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

History outside USA

[edit]

Does nayone have any history for outside the USA? To my memory they only began to be widely used in the UK in the 1980s, but maybe I just wasn't aware of them before.  Preceding unsigned comment added by Marinheiro (talkcontribs) 16:51, 20 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Dead Sources

[edit]

Multiple links in the History section have been removed. 4 leads to a main page redirect and 5 is dead. Also, is there any veracity to the claims made? 2800:150:14C:BDF:11ED:EDFB:84BA:5B7F (talk) 22:37, 26 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
