Recycling paper into soft tissue


Our advanced paper recycling plant in Brisbane produces 20,000 tonnes of hygienic soft , recycled tissue from high quality waste paper every year. At every stage of the recycling process we employ environmentally responsible techniques.

Our revolutionary de-inking process does away with the need for bleaching. This even enables all wastewater in the mill to be recycled.

Recycling our packaging


All Quilton Toilet Tissue packaging is recyclable in Australia as part of the ‘REDcycle program’.

Just bring the plastic wrapping to selected Coles and Woolworths stores nationwide and drop them into the ‘REDcycle collection bin’.

The RED Group will do the rest, turning the wrapping into new products such as sturdy outdoor furniture and signage.
