By identifying the four key indicators of raw materials, layers and weight, execution standards, flexibility and water absorption when selecting daily toilet paper, it is possible to effectively avoid inferior products and balance practicality and health.

1. Prioritize raw materials: determine safety and skin friendliness

Raw materials are the foundation of toilet paper and directly affect its safety and tactile sensation. Therefore, it is important to pay close attention to the "raw material composition" label on the packaging.

Preferred 100% virgin wood pulp/bamboo pulp: This type of raw material has long fibers, less impurities, finer and softer paper, and has undergone strict processing, high safety, and is suitable for long-term use, especially for sensitive populations such as the elderly and children.

Careful selection of "mixed pulp" and "recycled pulp": Mixed pulp may be mixed with waste paper pulp, while recycled pulp is processed from recycled paper. Although the price is low, the fibers are short, prone to shedding, and there may be a risk of bacterial residue. Long term use may irritate the skin.

2. Pay attention to the number of layers and weight: balance thickness and practicality

The thickness, toughness, and durability of toilet paper are determined by both the number of layers and weight. It is not necessarily better to have more layers and higher weight, and should be selected based on the usage scenario.

Number of floors: For household use, priority should be given to choosing 3 or 4 floors. Two layers of paper are relatively thin and easy to break and penetrate when in use; The thickness of 3-4 layers is moderate, which can ensure toughness, prevent hands from getting dirty when wiping, and avoid waste due to excessive thickness.

Weight: Single roll weight of 120g-180g (standard household size) is recommended for reconstruction. Low weight implies sparse paper, fast usage, and lack of durability; If the weight is too high, the single roll volume will be large, which may not be suitable for household roll paper racks, and the price is usually higher, with low cost-effectiveness.

3. Verify execution standards: Ensure compliance with national security requirements

The "execution standard number" on the packaging is a hard indicator to determine whether the toilet paper is qualified, and it must comply with national standards before it can be purchased.

Household toilet paper needs to comply with GB/T 20810: this is a specialized national standard for "toilet paper", which has strict restrictions on the total number of bacterial colonies, impurities, fluorescent agents, etc., so you can use it with confidence.

Be cautious of products without standards or with incorrect standards: If the packaging does not indicate the implementation standard, or if it indicates other category standards such as "GB/T 24455" (hand towel standard), "GB/T 34454" (kitchen tissue standard), there may be quality hazards, and it is not recommended to purchase.

4. Test flexibility and water absorption: avoid problems such as shedding and breakage

These two indicators need to be judged through simple testing, which directly affects the user experience. Poor quality paper usually performs poorly in these two aspects.

Flexibility: Take a piece of paper and gently pull it, the qualified product is not easy to break, and after kneading, it is not easy to shed fluff or powder; If it breaks easily when pulled or becomes covered in debris after rubbing, it indicates poor fiber quality and is not recommended to buy.

Water absorption: Pour a small amount of water onto paper, high-quality paper can quickly absorb and is not easily rotten; If it absorbs water slowly and breaks when wet, it is easy to leave paper scraps when wiping, and the user experience is poor.
