Marcal Products | Review & Giveaway! (Closed)

marcal logo

recycle-binWhen it comes to paper goods for my home (paper towels, toilet paper, tissues), I have had the great opportunity to work with a company that has been saving trees and the wildlife it supports, since 1950. While I don’t consider myself a ‘tree hugger’, I do care about our environment.

I had never heard of Marcal Paper until recently and I am already excited about everything about the company and products.

We received a nice variety of paper towels, tissue paper, napkins & toilet paper. I will be honest and say that I have never heard of this brand or seen it in my stores, but when I went shopping the other day, I saw them and I bought some while I was there. The price is very comparable to what we were already purchasing and I like that Marcal cares about our environment so deeply.

Who is Marcal Paper?

Marcal Paper Products LLC, the proud makers of new Small Steps™ by Marcal® brand products has been saving trees and the wildlife it supports, since 1950.

Small Steps™ by Marcal® brand products focuses squarely on the company’s green heritage. For over five decades, Marcal has been saving trees and reducing landfill by making its paper products from recycled paper. Marcal uses paper collected from curbs in residential neighborhoods in cities and towns across America; from the small blue baskets in office buildings, unwanted junk mail, and waste from printers; all in an effort to do something good… to produce something that people need.

Marcal 2Marcal is an integral part of the northern New Jersey community. The company uses recyclables from more than 600 municipalities from New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York and New England. The company is one of the largest employers in New Jersey, employing over 900 people.

It is so easy and affordable it easy to be green at home with Marcal Small Steps products. Did you know that today, 98% of the paper towels, napkins and toilet paper we buy in our local grocery stores comes from deforestation. Some from old growth forests. Some from forests clear-cut long ago, now replanted, harvested, and replanted in a cycle devastating to wildlife who don’t understand what the heck we humans are doing to their habitats. Just 2% of our paper towels, napkins, and toilet paper comes from recycled paper.

We really liked the quality of the products. We use the napkins on a daily basis and the kids like that they are not rough on their little faces.
