  • Publication number: 20220275584
    Abstract: Disclosed are multi-ply embossed tissue products having improved softness, strength, embossment clarity and/or embossment height compared to prior art embossed tissue products. The multi-ply tissue products may comprise an embossed tissue ply having a basis weight less than about 25 grams per square meter (gsm) and relatively deep embossments, such as an embossment height from about 500 to about 1,000 ?m and relatively narrow bottom portions compared to top portions. The combination of these elements provides an aesthetically pleasing and well-defined embossment, while improving important tissue product properties such as sheet and roll bulk and softness.

  • Patent number: 11124921
    Abstract: The present invention provides multi-ply tissue products having distinctly different first and second outer surfaces or sides. The two-sidedness is generally provided by forming one of the surfaces from a tissue ply having a plurality of macrofolds and the other side from a substantially planar tissue ply. The first ply may be attached to the second ply at transversely spaced apart points by a conventional means, such as crimping. Macrofolds, which may be differently sized and shaped, may generally have a wave-like structure with a transversely orientated void that extends between the spaced apart points of attachment. The combination of these elements provides a tissue product that is both aesthetically pleasing and well suited to cleaning due to the large amount of surface area created by the macrofolds.

  • Patent number: 11111633
    Abstract: The present invention provides multi-ply tissue products having distinctly different first and second outer surfaces or sides. The two-sidedness is generally provided by forming one of the surfaces from a tissue ply having a plurality of macrofolds and the other side from a substantially planar tissue ply. The first ply may be attached to the second ply at longitudinally spaced apart points that define a macrofold therebetween. The length of tissue between the points of attachment may form a wave-like structure having an amplitude and wavelength and having a transversely orientated void that extends from a first edge to a second edge of the tissue. The combination of these elements provides a tissue product that is both aesthetically pleasing and well suited to cleaning due to the large amount of surface area created by the macrofolds.
