MIAMI, Florida -- Atlas Tissue has introduced the Green Heritage line of recycled tissue products to the at-home market. Atlas Tissue, a business of Resolute Forest Products (RFP) (RFP), is changing the way consumers view recycled products with its Green Heritage premium 100% recycled tissue line that is Soft on you. Easy on the planet.

The company said the Green Heritage brand is designed to offer today's environmentally conscious consumers a first-in-class product that is additive-free, septic-safe and so much more. Green Heritage is manufactured with recycled pulp from Resolute's Fairmont (West Virginia) mill. This allows for precise control of the entire production process, ensuring cost-competitiveness and consistent quality, while offering the flexibility and customization customers demand.

"When comparing Green Heritage products to those of our competitors, third-party testing confirmed that our bath tissue is brighter, thicker and stronger than the leading recycled bath tissues on the market," stated André Piché, senior vice president, Tissue Business Group, for Resolute Forest Products. "We are confident consumers will appreciate the quality and comfort of our new recycled product line."

Atlas Tissue has a manufacturing capacity of 62,000 short tons of tissue across three paper machines and 11 converting lines located in Hialeah (Miami) and Sanford (Orlando) , in Florida . It also operates a paper recycling center in Tampa.
