Commercial jumbo toilet papers – Commercial jumbo toilet papers are the large-diameter rolls used in public washrooms, staff facilities and high-traffic areas where the frequency of refilling has to be kept low. Selection is based on the roll length, the core diameter, the ply count and the fibre grade, since these rolls only work with dedicated jumbo or mini-jumbo dispensers rather than the holders found in guest bathrooms.
When requesting a quotation, state whether your dispensers take jumbo or mini-jumbo rolls, give the core diameter and indicate the monthly volume. In guest-facing washrooms a two-ply white grade is usually preferred; roll length, diameter and grammage are listed in the technical data.
Commercial jumbo toilet papers: procurement considerations
- Roll length: Several hundred metres per roll significantly reduce how often a washroom has to be serviced during the day.
- Core diameter: Jumbo and mini-jumbo cores differ, and a dispenser will accept only one of the two formats.
- Ply count: Two-ply grades are expected in guest-facing washrooms, while single-ply is adequate for staff and service areas.
- Fibre grade: Recycled grades lower the cost per metre, whereas virgin cellulose gives a whiter and softer sheet.
Frequently asked questions about this category
What is the difference between jumbo and mini-jumbo?
Mini-jumbo rolls have a smaller outer and core diameter and fit compact dispensers, while jumbo rolls hold more paper but require the larger unit.
Are jumbo rolls used in hotel guest rooms?
Rarely. Guest bathrooms normally use small boxed core rolls, and jumbo rolls are reserved for public and staff washrooms.
