Next month, Kimberly-Clark is unveiling a new product for retail stores. Coreless toilet paper in household roll sizes!

Of course, there are already coreless toilet paper rolls sold, generally wholesale for businesses and high volume toilet paper dispensers.

Scott Naturals Tube-Free toilet paper will be sold at Walmart and Sam’s Club stores throughout the Northeast.

Why go coreless?

An estimated 17 billion cardboard tubes are thrown away each year, enough to circle the Earth’s equator more than 45 times, as reported in USA Today. Some people use the cardboard tubes from toilet paper for arts and craft projects, but most end up in the trash. The new tube free toilet paper may appeal to environmental groups.

Our own Toilet Paper King, Kenn Fischburg, said that some toilet paper cardboard tubes actually end up flushed down the toilet. In an interview with AOL News, he said,

You’d be surprised at how many people clog up toilets with the cardboard tubes. You run out of paper and, out of anger, shove the tube in the toilet, or people will do that as a prank.

The tube free toilet paper rolls will retain their shape without the core and still fit on standard toilet paper dispenser spindles.

Are you going to go coreless? Or do you reuse the cardboard for other uses?

A Chicago federal district court judge recently decided that Georgia-Pacific, that produces the Quilted Northern brand, could not trademark its quilted diamond design. The AM Law Litigation Daily reported on the issue.

The reason was that the diamond pattern was found to be a functional part of the product. According to Judge Kendall, “the degree to which Georgia-Pacific emphasized the utilitarian benefits of the quilted diamond design in its advertising” actually strengthened Kimberly-Clark‘s argument that the design was functional, and thus not suitable for trademark.

Kimberly-Clark uses a quilted diamond design in their Cottonelle Ultra, Scott Ultra, and Scott Extra Soft toilet paper brands.

Do you think that the quilted diamond is functional or aesthetic?

Many people have aversions to using public restrooms. Who knows how many people are using these toilets and sinks? At least, at home, you know who you are sharing germs with!

If you must use a public bathroom, there are some important things to remember! Some of recommendations for using a public bathroom include avoiding air hand dryers, using touchless dispensers. Carrying a hand sanitizer with you might also be a good idea, in case you do pick up any germs on door handles or faucets.
