Top American TP Brands like P&G’s Charmin Get “F” Grades in NRDC’s New Report & Scorecard, As More Sustainable Options Enter the Market

Yet America’s top toilet paper maker, Procter & Gamble , resolutely refuses to stop making Charmin with large volumes of pulp from the boreal, despiteto address forest supply chain impacts, and rapidly growing consumer interest in purchasing toilet paper and tissue brands that are not complicit in clearcutting the last forests untouched by industrial logging.

Many major toilet paper brands — most notably, Procter & Gamble’s Charmin — are made almost exclusively from virgin pulp from climate-critical, centuries-old forests in the Canadian boreal.
