The opportunity: Develop a convenient, innovative package to encourage consumer acceptance of tissue products made from recycled material. The outcome: A distinctive, patent-pending carton offering maximum sustainability and production protection for bathroom tissue without a cost premium over conventional poly-wrapped products in corrugate cases.
