Tree-Free, Toxin-Free: Why I Love Plant Paper 🌱🧻
When it comes to everyday sustainability swaps, few feel as simple—or as impactful—as switching the paper products we use daily. Enter Plant Paper: a brand that’s redefining what bathroom and household essentials can look like when they’re kinder to both people and the planet.
Most of us grew up with traditional paper products (think toilet paper, tissues, and paper towels) made from virgin tree pulp, bleached with harsh chemicals, and wrapped in plastic, because white and fluffy equaled good quality. Plant Paper turns that whole system on its head with products that are:
✨ Tree-Free – Made from fast-growing, renewable bamboo instead of old-growth forests. Did you know, traditional TP causes 27,000 trees per day to be flushed down the world’s toilets, including thousands of acres of boreal forest per minute?!
✨ Toxin-Free – Free from bleach, formaldehyde, and dyes that are often used in conventional paper products (and that you use on some pretty important body parts!)
✨ Plastic-Free Packaging – Shipped in minimal, thoughtful packaging that skips the plastic wrap.
Bonus: Plant Paper may be best known for their TP (yes, the rolls are super soft and sturdy 👏), but they also make facial tissue—a simple, eco-friendly swap for what most of us call “Kleenex.” Same comfort, way better for the planet.
Education Meets Ease
One of my favorite things about Plant Paper is their voice as a brand. Their monthly newsletters are not only educational but also fun, breaking down environmental issues in ways that are approachable and inspiring. They make it easy to learn and to laugh—a rare combo in the sustainability space.
Plus, they have a subscription model. You can set it and forget it, making sure you never run out of the essentials.
Why It Matters
Swapping tree-based, toxin-laden paper products for bamboo alternatives isn’t just good for your health—it’s also a meaningful way to reduce deforestation, chemical pollution, and waste. It’s one of those “small switches” that, when multiplied by millions of households, makes a huge difference.
If you’ve been curious about making your bathroom (and beyond!) a little more mindful, Plant Paper is one of the easiest, most impactful swaps you can make.
