Tissue is the single largest office paper consumable by volume. A 100-seat Bangalore office burns through 800–1,200 toilet rolls, 1,500–2,000 multi-fold hand towels, and 200–300 facial tissue boxes per month. Yet most procurement teams treat it as a forgotten line item — until housekeeping runs out at 3pm on a Friday.
This guide tells you what to source, in what brand tier, and how to consolidate to one tissue paper supplier in Bangalore without losing flexibility.
The cheapest 1-ply roll looks cheaper but employees use 3-4 pulls instead of 1, doubling consumption. A mid-grade 2-ply roll at ₹18/roll often beats a ₹12/roll 1-ply on total cost-per-week. Run a 2-week swap test with your housekeeping team — track rolls consumed per day.
For BRSR-reporting companies, source FSC-certified or recycled-content tissue: FSC Mix Credit (responsibly sourced virgin fibre), 100% recycled content (lower whiteness but acceptable for back-office), or bamboo tissue (rising category, premium pricing).
A 100-seat office typically goes through 800-1,200 toilet rolls, 1,500-2,000 multi-fold hand towels, and 200-300 facial tissue boxes per month. Volume tracks closely with seat count plus daily visitor flow.
For BRSR-reporting companies, yes — FSC Mix Credit certification gives a documented sustainability claim for Scope 3 disclosures at a 10-15% per-roll premium. For non-listed offices it is optional; the bigger sustainability win is moving from 1-ply to 2-ply (reduces per-use consumption by half).
Yes from suppliers with a Bangalore warehouse. OfficeSmart delivers in-stock tissue SKUs same-day across Koramangala, HSR, Whitefield, Indiranagar, Manyata, and ORR. Custom 3-ply or branded tissue takes 7-10 days.
OfficeSmart is a one-stop tissue paper supplier in Bangalore for offices. Toilet rolls, multi-fold hand towels, facial tissues, jumbo rolls, centrefeed rolls, kitchen paper — all on a single GST-compliant monthly invoice with same-day Bangalore delivery. Pair tissue with cleaning supplies, hand soap, sanitiser, and bin liners on the same invoice and your Admin team handles one supplier instead of five.
