Been giving this a try since last year, and haven't seen any sales, so thought I would post. If you've seen it and thought of trying, now's a good time.
Not sure when exact end date is. Their post says "this week only" but they only posted yesterday.

This toilet paper is made with 100% recycled fibers, and they also give 50% of their profits to WaterAid to help build toilets and improve sanitation in the developing world.

Quality isn't up there with Quilton, but It's OK paper. Better than Safe, plus extra benefits of this is pretty good. (donates to WaterAid)

Price works out to 22.4c per 100 sheets.

NOTE - it is delivered in a big box with "Who Gives A Crap" written on the outside, so depending on if you want to advertise to your workmates, may want to get this delivered to home. Although, good chance to dialogue!

Blurb from Facebook post:

Happy Earth Day!

We love trees, but we think they're better for hugging than for wiping bums. That's why we're hoping to get as many people as possible to switch to recycled toilet paper this week, in honour of Earth Day. Can you help us? Please share this $5 discount with your friends, family, and all those random people who follow you on Facebook that you haven't talked to since high school. We've already saved almost 5,000 trees, so every person who makes the switch makes a difference!

Visit www.whogivesacrap.org and use coupon code "WEHUGTREES" to save $5 on every order, this week only!

      I'm not actually associated with this company. Error when posting the deal. Do you think a rep would actually say "quality isn't up there with Quilton"? But see the reviews on their page if you want, people like it. I don't mind it, and think the concept is pretty good in helping developing countries with sanitation.

      Quilton Ecoply is not 100% recycled. "Unique Recycled Middle Layer" = 33% recycled.

      Also, it's 30cents per 100 sheets, compared to this - so think your Negative vote might be off the mark.

        My V8 Commodore produces less CO2 than cow's flatulence.

        Even if that was true:

        1) The cow's greenhouse gasses (CO2, methane, etc) comes from the grass it ate (ie, greenhouse gasses that already existed in the atmosphere).
        2) The greenhouse gasses from your V8 Commodore comes from oil pumped out of the ground (ie, NOT already existing in the atmosphere).

        The process the cow follows is a circular system, no new greenhouse gasses generated.

        The process your car follows is ALL new greenhouse gasses into the system.

        Your conclusion that global warming is a myth is caused by your own confirmation bias - you're only looking at the stuff that you think supports you not changing your life style.

        I'm at fault as anyone (ie, I consume lots of energy and contribute to excessive additional greenhouse gasses entering our system) but I'm not going to lie to myself or anyone else about it.

      I guess I feel like a bit of a dolt for asking this, but after you use a bidet don't you have to dry your backside anyway?

      • dealman on 23/04/2015 - 17:36

        don't you have to dry your backside anyway?

        At that point you have a clean bum so you could use a normal towel. Not one time use toilet paper.

        I'd even say even 1 better than bidets, just have a hand held hose to spray clean your bum. Then all you need is soap to wash your hands after. It's common in many eastern countries.

        • [Deactivated] on 23/04/2015 - 20:21

          If you have to launder towels doesn't that negate any environmental gain you've made? The detergents and energy used might be more than what is used to mass produce toilet paper.

          I am not sure spraying your backside clean would be any better than wiping. It might feel fresher, but if it is just water I don't think it would be any better than rinsing your hands without soap. It might feel cleaner, but without a surfactant to hold and be rinsed away…

        • dealman on 23/04/2015 - 21:51

          @Juddy:

          doesn't that negate any environmental gain you've made?

          I like the way you think, and no Answer that q, no it doesn't negate the gain, The most I've lost by washing instead of wiping is probably a litre of water, if that. Maybe one extra Towel in the laundry in a week.

          As far as the towels, they are just being wet and will be dried right there in the bathroom so hardly any extra Laundering because of 1 extra Bum wipe in a day.

          When you compare that to the amount of water and resources wasted in Growing a plant to a tree, cutting it processing it packing and shipping it to the shops and then to your home, Washing is wasy more environmentally friendly.

          They are not even on the same scale. TO say Wiping with this paper saves the environment is a joke, if you are really concerned about the environment washing is the way to go. but again each to his own.

    As well as being ripped off with a lower quality product for more of your dollars note that this product needlessly uses a recycling process on a renewable resource (cellulose fibre aka trees).

    Since almost all paper uses plantation timber this simply means that less trees are planted ie zero reason to use this if you care about the environment.

    • danyool on 23/04/2015 - 19:18

      Not quite sure I follow your logic there. If you've already got the paper, why not recycle it? Otherwise you're wasting that paper and then you've got to plant/grow/water/tend/harvest/ship/process more trees so there's the energy use in that process. It's not just that it's renewable.

      • supaderp on 23/04/2015 - 20:24
        +8

        I am not against recycling but the reason why this should be negged is because it does not cost that much for 48 rolls. This product comes from China and its not like the company revolutionized the industry, the product already exist. Earthcare Australian owned and made 100% recycled toilet paper (same company which makes Quilton paper). Keep in mind, the Australian made product is about ~AUD$30 for 48 rolls for the same product specs.

        So basically the same product made in China cost $18 more than something made in Australia. This company is obviously just getting their paper from supplier, get a packaging company to put their own labels over and says they donate 50% of all profits to charity. This is absolutely ridiculous.

          The 50% off rolls at woolies are 24c per 100, these are 22.4c per 100. This doesn't seem much more expensive to me? These are also 3 ply whereas the ones i mentioned are 2 ply.

          Can people just not math?

          Oh and if you bothered to look at the products they have, you can see that do indeed have a pack of regular 48x rolls for $32. Amazing!

          @cathole: I believe that is for virgin paper. Big difference in quality when compared with recycled.
          I believe now the industry also looks at the paper's GSM, mainly because manufacturer will change the paper's density making each ply thinner.

          This company no doubt sells other paper products. They succeeded in marketing this paper and made huge amount of profits. But huge amount of profits means that charity gets more right? Yes, but at whose expense? Basically this products will not sell in the market because it is just daylight robbery.

          In the end of the day, I don't get anything from posting this, I am just sharing my knowledge I have in the paper commercial sector. Every industry is doing it tough this year, the last thing to do is rip off consumers. Plus I'd rather donate to the Salvos, there is no guarantee that 50% of profits is going to the charity.

          @supaderp: "because it is just daylight robbery"

          Exactly. Dressed up as an something that's "good for the earth" when the product is 100% renewable and biodegradeable. Many people who classify themselves as "enviromentalists" are simply following snake oil like this. I mean if you want to pay more for a lower quality product and pretend that you're "doing your bit" go ahead but I'll just point out you could also just pray and achieve the same thing.

    Is it better to fold or scrunch with this paper

      Wrap it around your hand, turning it into a giant bum spade.

    I support AUS companies so I buy Naturale or Safe toilet paper instead. They're often on sale at 22-24 cents/100 sheets at Colworths. However, I upvoted this deal because this toilet paper seems to be a good product for a good price and a good purpose!

    Recycled usually feels like sandpaper.
