Australia Tissue Paper Market Trends:

Increasing Hygiene Awareness and Health Concerns

The increasing awareness of personal hygiene and sanitation boosts the demand for tissue paper in Australia. Consumers are more conscious of preventing germs and infections, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to higher consumption of facial tissues, toilet paper, and hand towels. The preference for disposable hygiene products in homes, workplaces, and public spaces further fuels the Australia tissue paper market share. The continuous focus on cleanliness throughout restaurants, as well as schools and offices, creates reliable market demand. As hygiene habits continue to evolve, tissue paper products remain essential for maintaining public health and personal well-being across various industries and households. For instance, in July 2024, Yarn’n, an Australian company owned by First Nations, launched its fully recycled toilet paper obtained solely from Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified forests. The company stated that its production processes focus on resource conservation, utilizing 50% less water and 90% less energy compared to conventional methods. Yarn’n remarked that this pledge lessens environmental harm and also promotes sustainable forestry methods that honor Indigenous Peoples’ rights and protect local wildlife.

Rising Demand for Sustainable and Eco-Friendly Products

Environmental concerns and consumer preferences for sustainable products are driving the shift toward eco-friendly tissue paper. Many Australians are opting for recycled, biodegradable, and bamboo-based tissues to reduce environmental impact, which is creating a positive impact on the Australia tissue paper market outlook. The manufacturing industry implements green practices by selecting sustainable materials along with adopting efficient water conservation techniques and switching to plastic-free packaging. Government policies and activities that encourage sustainability help to provide the conditions for this trend. Supermarkets and retailers introduce additional options of sustainable tissue products to fulfill their customers' environmental concerns. As sustainability continues to influence purchasing decisions, the market for green alternatives in tissue paper products is expected to grow significantly in the coming years. According to a Monash University survey, nearly half of Australian consumers (46%) think that sustainability is now a significant consideration when making retail purchases. Australia is one of the biggest markets for toilet paper in terms of volume growth. Toilet paper is predicted to increase in volume by 1.8% in 2025, with a total import of 95.7 million USD in 2023. As consumers place a greater emphasis on making environmentally friendly decisions, the market for sustainable and eco-friendly hygiene tissue and paper is continuously expanding.
