Giant rolls of absorbent paper

Where does one buy those giant rolls of (generally blue) absorbent paper from (like kitchen towel, on steroids)...?


SCATS (sometimes) or you can get them mail order here:

for four rolls

Dang, worth having a look around that site, they also have bigger packs of centre feed rolls:

Arco:

1 ply blue 150m x 20cm 6 rolls =A326.60 + VAT 2 ply blue 110m x 21.5cm 6 rolls =A331.92 + VAT 2 ply white 110m x 21.5cm 6 rolls =A333.52 + VAT

All those are quite narrow, stuff about 750mm wide is available but not sure where from.

That seems an exhorbitant price, if that is for the standard 'extra large' style kitchen roll (but better quality than usual kitchen roll), then I pay £10 for 6. Alan.

Yes, thats what I pay (£10 for 6) at my local cleaning supply Company.

I get white roll now, as the blue dye tends to run if you leave it with cleaning fluid on it. Alan.

For what length/width, these are more or less a "cubic cylinder". I've not bought any so don't know the quality etc. Most "Blue Roll" is far superior to kitchen towel, that normally has very little strength when wet, Blue Roll is fairly robust and isn't the same as the center feed hand drying stuff either.

Be aware that even though you buy as centrefeed, there may still be a cardboard roll at the centre. You have to remove the roll to make it centrefeed. There's a knack to doing this, which involves un-peeling the cardboard roll, which is spiral-wound. It's magic when you get it right.
