Kleenex Trusted Care facial tissues

Kleenex is arguably the most recognizable brand of facial tissues globally, having become synonymous with the product category itself since its introduction. The brand originated in the United States in the early 1920s, initially marketed as a cold cream remover before evolving into the disposable handkerchief known today.

Today, the brand is owned and manufactured by Kimberly-Clark, a multinational personal care corporation. While Kleenex products are distributed worldwide, the packaging in the image indicates that this specific unit was made in the USA using a combination of domestic and imported materials. The manufacturing process involves sourcing pulp through sustainable forestry practices, as evidenced by the FSC certification on the box.

Kimberly-Clark remains the ultimate owner of the brand, headquartered in Irving, Texas. The company manages a vast portfolio of essential consumer goods and maintains manufacturing facilities in dozens of countries to supply local markets, though the American plants remain a core hub for North American distribution.
