Napkins
How Is Tissue Paper made?
Cellulose is mixed with paper in a very large container. The solution is refined with the series of rotating blades. The Papermill machine then takes the solution and converts it into a soft pulp, which is further drained to produce giant Tissue Rolls.
The large Tissue Rolls are distributed across the Paper Napkin manufacturers based on the desired specifications.
The manufacturers load the Tissue Paper Roll on to the machine. The paper passes through the rotating printing die, which prints the design over the paper. Then the paper is folded, cut, and packed.
Malpractices associated with the Tissue Paper
With the semi-automated Tissue Paper machine, the cut paper is packed manually. The employee makes a guess, picks up the set of Tissue Paper and packs it. You might or might not get the exact number of Tissue Paper Napkins as mentioned on the packet.
Another common problem is the Tissue Paper Packet will have few pieces less. It is done by the manufacturer as per the request of the vendor intentionally.
Many customers don't realize the issue as it's not easy to count and verify the count in every packet.
Types of Tissue Paper Napkins

What is the Recycled Tissue Paper?
The recycled Tissue paper is made from the discarded paper previously used in homes and offices. And its cheaper than the Virgin Tissue paper.
The recycled paper is also used to manufacture paper napkins. There's one problem, BPA.
A thin coating of powdered BPA is used on some kinds of heat-sensitive paper, like cash register receipts, shipping labels. Since BPA is present in a tiny amount, recycled paper napkins are still used.
Even with the low cost, the recycled paper napkins aren't preferred. It'll take twice or thrice pieces of recycled paper napkins as compared to the virgin paper napkin.

Or How we test toilet paper?
Perforation
The toilet paper with good perforation makes it easier to separate the tissue from the paper roll. The easier it is for the toilet paper to tear, the better.
Puncture Test
We measure the strength of the toilet paper by testing its resistance to puncturing. With the good Toilet paper, your finger is less likely to go through the paper.
Disintegration time
The Tissue paper is designed to decompose in the sewage tank. The disintegrating time of the tissue paper is around 15 minutes. For home 15 minutes should be fine. The bigger offices should go for the toilet paper which decomposes quickly.
Softness & Absorption
The soft Tissue paper with good absorption is always preferred. The soft Tissue paper won't produce much friction between the skin and tissue.
The virgin Tissue paper with good absorption will get the job done easily and quickly.
