Kleenex is basically synonymous with tissue paper in the US but I’ve never heard of them selling toilet paper before. Cottenelle is the TP brand from Kimberly-Clark in the US.
Napkins and cotton swabs too? Here Kleenex is strictly for your nose (or nut). I think the tissues did so well that the idea of Kleenex for your butt is weird.
It’s just toilet paper, which is probably made in the same factories as tissue paper, so Kleenex decided to cut out the middleman there. Not sure why they only do it in some places though. Maybe the US has too competitive of a toilet paper market?
No its a simple matter of branding. Kleenex is a brand owned by Kimberly Clark, which also owns the TP brand Cottonelle. No reason to compete against yourself unless you’re trying to make another brand look good by comparison.
Theres also the fact that the Kleenex brand in the US is extremely closely tied to facial tissues that its basically synonymous. Making a Kleenex TP would dilute that reputation.

Really? Over here (Aus) they’re known for both. There is a Kleenex product for every orifice!
Apparently they own Kotex as well, so every orifice is truly accounted for.

For us, tissue paper is the thin packing paper that comes with fancy chocolates or gifts. We call facial/jizzual tissues just ‘tissues’
Yeah we do too, I’m just being weird there.
