Question

Is recycled toilet paper really safe to use?

Answer 1

perfectly safe the process is really no different.

Answer 2

As a safety rope for abseiling?  Probably not.

However, you'll probably find that it is as safe as any toilet paper.  Any volatiles that were present in the old paper should have been driven off and any bacteria and viruses should have been killed by the bleaching process.

In terms of irritation of the mucous membranes, you are probably better looking for an unbleached toilet paper.

Answer 3

It depends on how it was recycled.

Yes. Just as safe as the recycled containers and paper food comes in. Recycled papers go through a process and is treated.

Its not 'recycled toilet paper' as such, but paper that has been recycled into toilet paper.  God, I would hate to think that I was using toilet paper that another person had already used before me, ewwwww.

Answer 21

Yes its safe........

a little messy but safe

Answer 22

yes they are as long as you'll use them straight from the package and not from someone else hands... you see, during the process of recycling the materials are being sterilized thus killing the microorganisms in it... so recycled toilet papers are sure to be safe for use just don't let anyone touch it or any form of contamination get in the way... so better keep its package sealed or closed rather when not in use...

Answer 23

I don't think anyone recycles toilet paper because of the image.  Yeech!

Answer 24

its "recycled toilet paper" meaning its from other papers recycled not from used toilet paper it self.

It wasn't that many decades ago when newspaper was used without having been 'recycled' first.  At least today's recycled toilet paper isn't covered in newsprint!
