Asda makes major change to own-brand toilet paper in UK supermarket first

Asda has announced that it has made a major change to its range of own-branded toilet paper in a bid to help reduce its plastic and cardboard waste.

The Big Four grocer has become the first UK supermarket to double the length of its toilet paper in a move that will see it remove 74 tonnes of plastic and save 760 tonnes of cardboard a year, reports HullLive.

All packs of own-branded toilet paper from Asda will now come with double the amount of paper per roll and a reduced number of rolls per pack, which will reduce its cardboard and plastic usage in the process and removing over 1,200 lorries from the road each year.
