Soft packs suit refill, value and flexible retail formats. Pocket tissue suits travel, convenience and promotional channels.", "The format changes more than appearance. It changes dispensing, shelf footprint, pack protection, print method, carton layout and consumer use. A buyer should define the channel and price architecture before asking the facial tissue manufacturer for packaging artwork.", "Boxed tissue gives broad print area and protects the stack, but board, finishing and box height add cost and cube. Soft packs reduce rigid material but need reliable film sealing and dispensing. Pocket packs require compact folding, small artwork and pack durability during handling.", "Where several formats share a brand, keep sheet and softness claims SKU-specific. A pocket tissue sample should not approve the paper or dispensing of a boxed product unless the construction is actually the same." ] }, { "id": "section-2", "heading": "How should a facial tissue manufacturer control sheet dimensions and count?", "content": [ "Sheet width, cut length, ply, GSM, count, fold and softness treatment determine stack height and pack dimensions. Freeze the tissue stack before designing the box or film.", "Sansheng’s source records list facial-tissue widths around 17, 18, 19 or 20 cm and cut lengths around 18, 19, 19.5 or 20 cm for relevant equipment, with base-paper references around 12 to 15.5 gsm and colored references around 17 gsm. Those ranges show available planning options, not a universal catalog.", "The production width may be constrained by the converting machine while cut length can offer more flexibility. Buyers should therefore confirm feasible dimensions before finalizing a retail footprint copied from another supplier.", "For a box, leave enough internal clearance for dispensing without creating excessive empty space.

The tissue and package must be approved together.", "Sansheng’s records distinguish grey-back white board and white card options for boxed products and note that stronger premium or lotion-tissue programs may require a more suitable board. Finishes can include water-based varnish, film lamination, UV or embossing, each adding cost and changing recyclability review.", "For soft packs, reserve a clean sealing area and avoid artwork that interferes with the seal or opening. Printing plate cost can be significant relative to a trial order, so approve repeat artwork carefully before production.", "Boxes should be loaded in an orientation that protects shape. A visually attractive box can still fail if glue, compression or carton orientation is not validated for shipment." ] }, { "id": "section-4", "heading": "How should buyers compare landed economics from a facial tissue manufacturer?", "content": [ "Compare paper, packaging, tooling, carton cube, freight and expected damage per saleable pack. Do not assume soft pack is always cheaper or a box always creates more value without using the final dimensions and channel price.", "A compact format may improve container count but reduce shelf impact or dispensing quality. A stronger board may increase packaging cost but reduce crushed boxes. Put these trade-offs into the commercial model rather than selecting from unit price alone.", "For a multi-SKU private-label program, share compatible paper and artwork elements where practical, but keep a separate approved specification for every count and pack. The facial tissue manufacturer should identify which tooling and minimums are shared and which are unique." ] }, { "id": "factory-evidence", "heading": "How Sansheng sequences facial tissue development", "content": [ "Context: Sansheng facial-tissue planning starts with sheet, ply, GSM, count and feel before the final box or flexible pack is approved.", "What we observed: Packaging designed before the tissue stack is frozen can require rework when stack height, dispensing or carton cube changes.", "What this means for buyers: Approve the tissue stack and dispensing trial first, then lock retail packaging and master-carton dimensions.", "Limit: Machine ranges and packaging allowances are planning references.
