Do we import toilet paper?

Published in Trade & Manufacturing 1 min read

Yes, the United States imports toilet paper, but the vast majority is produced domestically.

According to available data, over 90% of toilet paper consumed in the US is manufactured in domestic factories.

Here's a breakdown:

  • Domestic Production: Over 90%
  • Imports: Less than 10%, primarily from Canada and Mexico.
  • Transportation: Imports most likely arrive by rail or truck.

In summary, while the US does import toilet paper, it relies heavily on domestic production to meet the demand.
