Sorbent is an iconic Australian brand that has been a household staple since 1952. Originally established in Melbourne, it gained fame for its high-quality paper products, including toilet tissue and facial tissues. The brand is deeply ingrained in Australian consumer culture, known for its focus on softness and durability.

Over the decades, ownership of Sorbent has transitioned through several major corporate entities. It was famously part of Bowater-Scott and later Carter Holt Harvey. In the 2000s, it was acquired by the Swedish hygiene giant Essity (formerly SCA). However, in 2011, the brand was acquired by Solaris Paper on behalf of Asia Pulp & Paper, bringing it under the ownership of Sinar Mas Group. Today, Sorbent is managed by Solaris Paper in Australia, representing a blend of Australian historical heritage and international corporate investment from Indonesia.
