What Are Multifold Paper Towels?

Folded paper towels are thick and absorbent towels for hotels, restaurants, offices, and at-home use. Some multifold paper towels are made from 100% recycled material, which is good for the environment. They come in one or two-ply options, depending on your cleaning and drying needs. Display multifold paper towels on accent tables next to sinks in the office bathroom to replace traditional air dryers that can spread germs if they are not frequently cleaned.

What Are the Features of Multifold Paper Towels?

Multi-fold paper towels usually come in white or brown, depending on how the folded paper towels are made. In each case, plant fibers are pulped and formed into thin sheets. Since wood fibers are naturally brown in color, the resulting pulp and paper are also brown. Brown varieties are usually eco-friendly versions that don’t use any chemicals in processing. Some companies will then use different chemical processes to whiten the paper. These white folded paper towels are the most common type of paper towels that are familiar to most people. Others paper towels are made from recycled fibers, including bleached paper, without any additional chemicals. They might use anywhere from 20 to 80 percent recycled fibers. Folded hand towels come in different-sized packs for small and large offices.
