The Kleenex® Brand Offers a Range of Tissues Designed to Provide the Care You Need for Both Everyday and Targeted Facial Tissue Use Can Kleenex® Tissues be used to clean eyeglasses? While we know that many consumers use Kleenex® Tissues to wipe or clean their lenses, we have not tested Kleenex® Tissue for this purpose; therefore, we cannot recommend it. We suggest that consumers check with their lens care providers for the best method of cleaning their lenses. How many tissues are in my Kleenex® Tissue box? All Kleenex® Tissue cartons currently include information regarding the number of sheets, sheet size and color of the tissue on the package opening area. You will find these details either on the perforated, tear-out portion of most cartons or on the removable plastic overwrap of certain cube or upright styles. How many different kinds of Kleenex® Tissues are available? The Kleenex® Brand offers a range of tissues designed to provide the care you need for both everyday and targeted facial tissue use. Each of our varieties offers softness, strength and absorbency with customized features for tissue performance, personal convenience and aesthetics. From Kleenex® Go Packs, which put essential care in your purse or pocket, to tissues made especially for your worst colds and allergies and the most sensitive noses, our products are designed to meet your individual care needs and your lifestyle. Explore our full range of options here. Describe the manufacturing process for Kleenex® Tissue. Pulp manufacturing mills are usually located near the wood source, while tissue manufacturing mills are located close to major markets. At the tissue manufacturing mills, the bales of pulp are put into a hydrapulper, which resembles a giant electric mixer. The pulp is mixed with water to form a pulp slurry of individual fibers in water known as stock or furnish. As the stock moves to the machine, more water is added to make a thinner mixture which is more than 99 percent water. The cellulose fibers are then thoroughly separated in refiners before being formed into a web, or sheet, on the forming section of the creped wadding machine. When the sheet comes off the machine a few seconds later, it is 95 percent fiber and only 5 percent water. Typically, much of the water used in the process is recycled. Water not reused is treated to remove contaminants prior to discharge. Careful controls and monitoring ensure that the water leaving the mill meets or exceeds water quality standards. A felt belt carries the sheet from the forming section to the drying section. In the drying section, the sheet is pressed onto the steam-heated drying cylinder and then scraped off the cylinder after it has been dried. The sheet is then wound into large rolls. The large rolls are transferred to a rewinder, where two sheets of wadding (three sheets for Kleenex® Ultra Soft and with Lotion Tissue products) are plied together before being further processed by calendar rollers for additional softness and smoothness. After being cut and rewound, the finished rolls are tested and transferred to storage, ready for converting into Kleenex® Tissue. In the converting department, numerous rolls are put on the multifolder, where in one continuous process, the tissue is interfolded, cut and put into Kleenex® Tissue cartons which are inserted into shipping containers. The interfolding causes a fresh tissue to pop out of the box as each tissue is removed. Throughout the manufacturing process, Kimberly-Clark continuously looks for ways to reduce the amount of energy used per unit of production. Each of the company's mills in the United States has energy conservation programs and receives technical support and advice from the corporate energy staff. Kimberly-Clark is also committed to the reduction of waste going to the landfill. Active waste reduction and recycling efforts are in place at each mill. I see a paper-recycling symbol on my Kleenex® Tissue box. Is Kleenex® Tissue made out of recycled fiber? This symbol refers only to the content of the carton itself, the Kleenex® Tissue inside is made from nearly 100 percent virgin fiber. While we are developing alternative fibers for future use, virgin fiber is currently used because it provides the superior softness consumers expect from Kleenex® Tissue. What types of trees are used to manufacture Kleenex® Facial Tissue? Selected tree species, including spruce, fir, aspen, maple and eucalyptus contain thin wood fibers which contribute to the desirable characteristics of softness, absorbency and strength in Kleenex® Tissue. Can Kleenex® Tissue boxes be recycled? Our cartons are fully recyclable with the poly insert attached. They are accepted at recycling facilities across the country. .

Structural Mechanics ISRN LUTVDG/TVSM--03/1015--SE (1-129) ISBN 91-628-5563-8 ISSN 0281-6679 BASIC TESTING AND STRENGTH DESIGN OF CORRUGATED BOARD AND CONTAINERS Doctoral Thesis by TOMAS NORDSTRAND Copyright © Tomas Nordstrand, 2003. Printed by KFS i Lund AB, Lund, Sweden, February 2003. For information, address: Division of Structural Mechanics, LTH, Lund University, Box 118, SE-221 00 Lund, Sweden. Homepage: http://www.byggmek.lth.se Detta är en tom sida! ABSTRACT Packaging serves a lot of purposes, and would be hard to do without. Packaging protects the goods during transport, saves costs, informs about the product, and extends its durability. A transport package is required to be strong and lightweight in order to be cost effective. Furthermore, it should be recycled because of environmental and economical concerns. Corrugated board has all of these features. This thesis is compiled of seven papers that theoretically and experimentally treat the structural properties and behaviour of corrugated board and containers during buckling and collapse. The aim was to create a practical tool for strength analysis of boxes that can be used by corrugated board box designers. This tool is based on finite element analysis. The first studies concerned testing and analysis of corrugated board in three-point- bending and evaluation of the bending stiffness and the transverse shear stiffness. The transverse shear stiffness was also measured using a block shear test. It was shown that evaluated bending stiffness agrees with theoretically predicted values.

  • Models and Software for Corrugated Board and Box Design
    INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ENGINEERING DESIGN, ICED11 15 - 18 AUGUST 2011, TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF DENMARK MODELS AND SOFTWARE FOR CORRUGATED BOARD AND BOX DESIGN Vahid Sohrabpour1 and Daniel Hellström2 (1) Lund University, Sweden (2) Lund University, Sweden ABSTRACT To design and develop boxes which protect, and at the same time utilize fiber material efficiently, models and software for predicting corrugated board and box properties are needed. The purpose of this research is to provide propositions toward improving the use and development of models and software for corrugated board and box design. By using an abductive approach, 18 models and four software for predicting corrugated board and box properties were identified, compared, and categorized depending on the needs of different supply chain actors. Eight of the models use paper properties for predicting board properties while ten models predict corrugated box properties. In order to decrease the gap between theory and practice new insights, in the form of propositions toward improving the use and development of models and software for corrugated box design, are suggested. A holistic perspective for modeling corrugated board and box is proposed and enables practitioners and researchers to identify causes to variation in predictions by considering control and noise factors. Keywords: Prediction model, simulation, packaging design, corrugated, board, box 1 INTRODUCTION Corrugated boxes have been used for protecting products for over a century. To design and develop boxes which protect, and at the same time utilize fiber material efficiently, models and software for predicting corrugated board and box properties are needed. Without these predictive models and software the corrugated industry needs to produce a set of samples and conduct physical tests which involve high costs and require more time.

Analytical framework bases on Heimerls assumption with a modification to a critical force, which is here computed by a numerical algorithm. The proposed method is compared herein with the successful McKee formula and is verified with the large number of experiment results of various packaging designs made of different qualities of corrugated cardboard. The results show that, for various hole dimensions or location of openings in no-flap and flap boxes, the estimation error may be reduced up to three times than in the simple analytical approach. Keywords: corrugated board buckling; orthotropic panels; laboratory tests; box strength; openings; ventilation holes; McKee formula 1.
