Why choose coreless toilet paper for your business?

When choosing the ideal hygiene products for your facility, it’s important to balance key priorities like operational efficiency and sustainability. Meeting these goals starts with noticing often-overlooked areas that can have a big impact. Such is the case of washrooms, where even minor details can make a difference. And when it comes to toilet paper, going coreless can benefit your business in multiple ways, helping maintain high hygiene standards while streamlining your operations.

Let's take a more detailed look at what coreless toilet paper is and how it could transform your facility for the better.

What is coreless toilet paper?

Simply put, coreless toilet rolls look like any other, just without the cardboard tube in the middle, which usually keeps the rolls’ structure intact. Instead, coreless products are rolled around themselves to create the same configuration.

Where are coreless toilet rolls often used?

Because this kind of product is more compact, you can usually fit more toilet paper into a matching coreless dispenser. Therefore, it’s common in high-traffic areas like large factories and busy offices. Nonetheless, going coreless can benefit any business, including restaurants and airports.

So, what exactly can Tork® coreless rolls do for your facility? Let's dive deeper:

What are the benefits of Tork coreless toilet paper?

Shifting from traditional toilet paper solutions to our coreless high-capacity toilet paper systems can streamline your operations. Here’s a closer look at how.

Increased efficiency

Our coreless products increase efficiency in many ways, such as:

Helping your washrooms stay well-stocked, since each high-capacity roll holds more paper than conventional toilet rolls. [1]
Freeing up room for other essential supplies or equipment, as you need only half the storage space compared to regular rolls. [2]
Reducing refilling time and allowing your staff to focus on other tasks, thanks to the longer yield of each roll. [3]

For high-traffic environments, it’s a good idea to consider opting for a 2-roll dispenser for even greater efficiency.

Boosted sustainability

Tork products are created with your business as well as the planet in mind. When it comes to coreless toilet paper, this means:

Less waste

Because our coreless rolls have no core or wrap to throw away, nothing goes to waste. [4] Better still, they use 89% less packaging than regular toilet rolls, minimising packaging waste. [5]

Reduced emissions

By taking up roughly half the storage space of traditional rolls, our coreless toilet paper lets you transport more in fewer trips, helping to reduce your business’s carbon footprint (the amount of carbon dioxide released through your activities). [2]

Improved user experience

By eliminating cardboard cores altogether, your bathrooms stay tidier and well-organised, letting visitors see that you prioritise both cleanliness and efficiency.

Not only that, but when toilet paper lasts longer, you can give users a smoother, more comfortable washroom experience and improve their overall perception of your business.

Keeping toilet paper stocked can be a challenge — but this is where Tork Vision Cleaning comes in. Our facilities management software provides your staff with an overview of cleaning and refill needs, helping prevent runouts and ensuring your bathrooms remain hygienic and well-stocked.

Sometimes the biggest improvements start with small changes. Switching to coreless toilet paper may seem like a minor update, but it can transform the way you manage washrooms in your facility. Choosing this kind of product can lead to smoother operations, better user experience, and even improved sustainability — all without sacrificing performance. Whether you’re in charge of an office, hotel, or factory floor, going with coreless rolls can set the tone for smarter facility management.
