Abstract: This invention concerns a dispensing box for paper towels comprising a container and a cover linked by a strap hinge to the container. A retractable inner box inverted in the container defines a section for receiving a stack of towels. The inner box has a base and an elongated opening arranged in the base for removing the towels therethrough. The cover opening and the towel passage through the elongated opening enables the towels stored in a chamber with controlled atmosphere to be pulled out for use. The section can be divided into two chanbers, one moistened and one dry, by a partition to provide two types of towels for use. A cover storage can also be installed inside the cover.
