Kimberly-Clark - statistics & facts
Hearing the word "Kleenex" as a synonym for tissues is really not uncommon, especially in the United States. This word is actually the name of a famous brand owned by Kimberly-Clark, a multinational corporation that primarily produces personal care and medical products. The majority of these items are paper based, for example, bath and facial tissues, feminine hygiene products, and disposable diapers. Established in the United States in the late 19th century, Kimberly-Clark has expanded to become one of the leading household and personal care companies in the world. Among its other well-known brands we can also find Cottonelle, Huggies, and Kotex.
