Answer 1

Any paper made from wood fibers can be recycled.

BUT it would not be considered safe to handle  kleenex or toilet paper that contain  any type of body fluids. The risks far outweigh the gain. Thats why they are sent down the drain to the sewage treatment plant and recycled back into the environment. These items can also be introduced into your compost pile

Answer 2

Kleenex is recycled toilet paper

they get away with it because people using kleenex got blocked noses or a cold ,so they do not smell so good ,

and they soak them in parfume

but it is suposed to be a secret,

Answer 3

Kleenex if used, cannot be currently recycled.  Sorry. =(

Answer 4

Kleenex is made out of forest fibers and is not a recycled product. It is NOT RECYCLABLE at all and some people belive that it may be a threat to the environment.

Answer 5

kleenex tissues are not made of recycled paper nor is it recyclable.  kleenex as charged by Greenpeace are made from clear-cutting ancient rainforest which provide us oxygen.  

The best way to help the environment is to buy recycled tissue products.  Trader Joes have great tissues made from 100% recycled paper with 10% post-consumer waste and its only $1.29 for 10 pack.  cheaper than kleenex tissues by a dollar and u get 2 packs more.

hope this helped
