Maine Factory Cranks Out Rolls of Tissue Paper
Special | 4m 12sVideo has Closed Captions
Maine factory cranks out rolls of 'white gold' as demand for toilet paper soars.
The covid-19 pandemic has led to the panic-purchasing of paper products in general and one item in particular: toilet paper. Some stores have sold out, others are rationing the goods, in some cases, as little as one roll apiece. The sudden demand for what some are calling "white gold" is proving a challenge and an opportunity for one fledgling family business.
