It is typically made from recycled paper or virgin pulp and comes in rolls or sheets. Bathroom tissue is available in various thicknesses, textures, and ply counts, which refer to the number of layers in each sheet. The primary purpose of bathroom tissue is to clean the anal area and maintain cleanliness. It is an essential item in most households and public restrooms. In addition to its primary use, some people also use bathroom tissue for other purposes, such as wiping surfaces or cleaning small spills.
