2. Hello Tushy
Bidet company Hello Tushy has been making a splash since 2015. Along with their signature bidets, Hello Tushy has branched out into the toilet roll business, and their bamboo TP is a top-seller. Unbleached and BPA-free, their 3 ply toilet paper is available to order in boxes of 36 rolls.
Good as they might be, common complaints include the high price point and small roll size, with some reporting that the cardboard core is too small to fit standard holders.
3. Reel Toilet Paper
Reel Toilet Paper boasts bamboo TP that is tree-free, plastic-free, fragrance-free free and lint-free.
Their biodegradable product comes in a variety of subscription and order size options — packed in 12, 24 or 48 roll parcels — arriving at intervals of anywhere from 4 to 24 weeks.
Extra-sensitive tushes may want to take note: Reel’s rough texture is a common complaint among many reviewers.
4. Plant Paper
Since 2016, Plant Paper has delivered bamboo toilet paper with no bleaching or dyeing agents of any kind.
Plant Paper’s 3 ply FSC certified bamboo toilet paper comes in packs of 16, 32, or the super-sized 96. Subscriptions can be tailored to arrive every 6, 9, 12, or 18 weeks, with a handy quiz to help determine a customer’s TP needs.
Despite its eco-credentials, reviews note that the texture may cause irritation for some, and it’s priced on the premium end
5. Save Trees (formerly Cloud Paper)
Based in Seattle, WA, Save Trees is a supporter of reforestation initiatives, making bamboo toilet paper that admirably aims to reduce the toll of toilet paper made from virgin trees. At last count in 2024, Save Trees’s efforts have protected over 100,000 trees, with over 4700 trees planted. We love to see it.
Their 3 ply rolls are available in subscription packs of 24, with boxes shipping out at intervals of two, three or four months.
There are a few things in the cons column, however — some reviews suggest Save Trees is a bit rough on the bum. And though their toilet paper is on the less expensive side, reports suggest rolls are slightly smaller than the rest.
6. Seek Bamboo
First rolled out in 2018, Seek Bamboo’s bamboo toilet paper is sustainably sourced with no inks, dyes or scents.
Subscriptions are available every few weeks, from 4 to 12, with 24 or 48-roll packages to choose from.
A common critique is the texture, though many users note it’s something they quickly adapt to.
7. Cheeky Panda
Cheeky Panda has been rolling out bamboo toilet paper since 2016, Cheeky Panda aims to bring sustainability to consumers with particularly sensitive skin.
You can grab their rolls in packs of 9, 24, or 45, with flexible options for one-time purchase or sign up for a subscription to save some money, with monthly subscription choices, of up to six months.
While they’re budget-friendly, reviews note that the rolls are on the smaller side, and not as soft as other bamboo brands.
8. Bim Bam Boo
Based in Minneapolis, MN, Bim Bam Boo’s sustainable toilet paper is designed specifically with women’s health in mind.
Free of toxic chemicals and pH neutral, Bim Bam Boo (say that three times fast!) offers the option of a low-commitment, single-roll purchase to get you started. After that, packages come in rolls of 24, with monthly subscription options ranging every one to four months.
Bim Bam Boo promotes toilet paper made of regenerative bamboo, but reviews are mixed, with many reporting super thin sheets that fall apart too easily.
9. Betterway
Easy on septic tanks, Betterway’s bamboo toilet paper is sourced from FSC® certified farms and comes with a 100-day money-back guarantee.
Betterway’s bamboo pulp is sourced from panda-free zones and is highly rated for its strength. Plus, they offer free shipping throughout the continental United States (tough luck, Alaska), with subscriptions sent out every 4 to 10 weeks.
Despite a lot of pluses, Betterway’s bamboo is commonly knocked for the price point, along with their not-so-soft sheets.
10. Grove Paper Co.
The Grove Paper Co. partners with The Nature Conservancy in support of Indigenous-led conservation in Alaska’s Tongass National Forest.
One of the cheaper options to purchase, this bamboo toilet paper can be ordered solo or in a subscription, in packs ranging from 4 to 24 rolls.
Some reviewers suggest that though Grove Paper Co.’s toilet paper is strong, it can be a little on the rough side. Also, some folks describe it as too thin.
