A box tissue manufacturer must evaluate it separately from steady-state dispensing after the stack has relaxed.", "The opening film or slit adds friction, while box clearance controls how tightly the stack presses upward. Interfold depth transfers motion from one sheet to the next. If those variables are unbalanced, the first tissue tears, stays below the opening or pulls several sheets.", "Sansheng’s product archive notes that facial tissue box height should allow clearance above the stack. That planning rule helps avoid excessive compression, but it does not define the exact pull force for every sheet size, count, lotion or box opening.", "Separate user complaints into first-sheet tear, no presentation, double pull, continuous chain and excessive steady pull.

The box tissue manufacturer and buyer should record peak first-sheet force, steady-state force and visual failure mode.", "Use the final retail box and opening film. A stack tested outside the box removes the friction and confinement that the buyer wants to evaluate. Record whether the opening tab was removed and how the first sheet was prepared.", "Test several consecutive pulls after the first sheet. Report force trend, torn sheets, multiple-sheet events and lost presentation. A low first-sheet force is not a pass if three tissues leave the box together.", "ISO 12625-4 provides dry tensile and stretch methods for tissue products.

More sheets without added box height can raise compression and first-sheet force.", "Opening film stiffness and slit length control friction. A cosmetic artwork update that changes the opening shape is therefore not purely visual.

Finished tissue boxes need an adapted plan that covers converting, box packing and carton positions. A convenient top carton is not enough.", "Test after the agreed conditioning and, where relevant, after transport simulation.

The box tissue manufacturer should repeat approval after changes to tissue grade, count, interfold, box size or opening film.", "Set both force and event criteria. Averages can hide a small number of boxes with no presented first sheet. Define how those categorical failures affect lot disposition.", "Keep one master specification linking tissue and packaging revisions. If the stack count changes but the box drawing does not, the approval system should flag the mismatch before production.", "Use the retained approved box as a commercial reference, while recognizing that aged paper and film may change. Rebuild the reference when materials or the review period changes.", "The release record should separate startup adjustment from stable production. A box tissue manufacturer may produce acceptable samples after manual correction while the normal line setting still creates intermittent double pulls. Record the number of boxes tested, the sequence of pulls and each failure event instead of reporting only an average force. For retail programs, repeat the check after the master carton has been stacked and handled under the agreed distribution simulation, because compression damage can narrow the box opening or disturb the interfolded stack during warehouse handling, pallet transfer and final delivery to the buyer’s regional distribution center and retail channel." ] }, { "id": "factory-evidence", "heading": "Sansheng evidence scope for facial tissue boxes", "content": [ "Context: Sansheng’s archive separates sheet dimensions, count, stack height, board grade and box process, and recommends clearance above the stack.", "What we observed: Those construction fields explain likely pull behavior but do not create a universal force limit.", "What this means for buyers: Approve the complete boxed SKU and record first-sheet and steady-state results.", "Limit: Final acceptance depends on the exact tissue, opening design, pack count and buyer user experience." ] }, { "id": "first-sheet-pull-fields-for-the-rfq", "heading": "First-sheet pull fields for the RFQ", "content": [ "Use these fields when comparing a box tissue manufacturer.
