Hankies Vs Tissue: Which is better?
Do you think in the war on waste, handkerchief will be making a greater comeback?
On one end we have the most popular, easily accessible, overly used tissues, and on the other hand we have the handkerchief that many thought to be retired but we believe it is set to make a greater comeback in this upcoming year. From last two years people prefer more hygiene due to this pandemic situation. Do you prefer single use tissue or handkerchief? I personally prefer handkerchief over tissue.
One of the biggest arguments towards single use tissues is to stop the spread of germs, but let’s be honest how many people put a tissue in the bin straight after use? It’s normal for them to end up on desks, beside draws, at the bottom of handbags or in our pockets which means the germs are still hanging around until you dispose of the tissue.
In past few years there has been quite increase in the use of single use tissue. 70% of people have switched to Single use tissue from handkerchief. But have you thought for it once? Is it eco-friendly? Is it good for planet? Moving towards reusable items is, of course, good for our planet. In past days as cold and flu season was to hit up, more people seemed to be carrying hankies. But gradually that use of hankies has decreased. Still there are people who look for handkerchiefs to stay hygienic.
There are many people who even have skin irritation issues if they use wet tissues. Wet tissues are not suitable to everyone. If someone has sensitive skin they may not prefer using wet tissues. So the best option preferred is to use cotton handkerchiefs which are reusable, washable, and even organic. If we look for tissue, used tissues are not recyclable, and facial tissues made out of recycled materials are pretty rare because it can be difficult to make soft enough.
In present days, due to the Covid-19 pandemic it has become mandatory for everyone to maintain hygiene and cannot be at all careless if you want to save yourself and your loved ones. Along with mask it is even better to carry handkerchief and use it whenever you feel to sneeze. So not only these days people use handkerchief just for blowing nose, even we get many designer handkerchiefs that can be used by girls as fashion to tie their hairs, tie on head, use as scarf and much more. Also use cotton handkerchiefs as pocket square in wedding seasons in their blazers and suit. There are many sites that provide handkerchiefs online, but we at Rumaal provide you the best designer printed, embroidered cotton handkerchiefs online.
