Kleenex The Original Tissues

Kleenex is one of the most iconic brands in the world, so much so that its name is often used as a generic term for facial tissues. Originally launched in 1924 by Kimberly-Clark as a way to remove cold cream, it was later repositioned as a disposable handkerchief, which led to its massive global popularity.

Today, Kleenex products are manufactured in multiple countries to serve local markets efficiently, with major production facilities in the United States, the United Kingdom, and various locations across Europe and Asia. The brand remains under the ultimate ownership of Kimberly-Clark Corporation, a multi-billion dollar American personal care corporation specializing in paper-based consumer products.
