Our experts have gathered all the kitchen paper towels they could find in national retailers and tested them in our lab to find out which ones:

  • absorb the most liquid
  • are strong and can resist puncturing
  • tear easily at the perforation
  • tear easily when wet.

 

We’ve also partnered with Shop Ethical on this update to show the ratings that the Ethical Consumer Group gives to each company.
