Hand roll paper towels are the workhorse format for kitchens, prep areas, plant floors, and any environment where users need to grab a length of towel on demand — not just dry their hands. We carry three case sizes (600ft × 12 rolls, 800ft × 6 rolls, and 1000ft × 6 rolls) so you can match the format to your dispenser hardware and refill cycle. ISO 9001 certified, code NHT06100 for the 600ft variant.
Why Hand Roll Beats Multifold for Kitchen Work
Multifold towels are designed for controlled, one-at-a-time dispensing in public washrooms. Hand roll is the opposite: users tear off as much as they need for the task at hand — wiping down a prep surface, drying a freshly washed pan, mopping up a spill. That free-tear convenience is exactly what kitchen and shop-floor workflows require. Trying to do kitchen prep with multifold towels is slow and frustrating; hand roll is built for the job.
Choosing Between 600 / 800 / 1000 Foot Rolls
All three lengths fit the same standard hand roll dispenser hardware. The choice is about refill frequency and per-foot economics:
- 600ft × 12 rolls (NHT06100) — 12 rolls per case is the highest count, useful when you want to stage rolls across multiple stations without opening another case.
- 800ft × 6 rolls — middle ground; longer roll cuts refill frequency without committing to maximum length.
- 1000ft × 6 rolls — longest run between refills, ideal for high-traffic kitchens where staff don't have time to swap rolls mid-shift.
Dispenser Compatibility
All three sizes fit standard commercial hand roll dispensers — including Tork, Cascades, Kimberly-Clark, and most generic units. The roll core is sized to the standard spindle. If you're upgrading from a different brand, the rolls are physically interchangeable. For pull-down or sensor-activated dispensers, all three lengths are compatible.
Other Formats — Available on Request
We also stock Centre Pull, Single Fold, and Inter Fold hand towel formats by request. If your facility needs one of these alternatives — or you're spec'ing a mixed-format paper program — email Sales@clwdistributor.com and we'll quote the full range.
Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between the three roll lengths?
The towel itself is the same — only the roll length and case count change. 600ft × 12 rolls gives you the most rolls per case (good for distributing across multiple stations). 800ft × 6 is a middle option. 1000ft × 6 gives you the longest run between refills. All three fit the same dispensers.
Will these fit my dispenser?
Yes — all three lengths fit standard commercial hand roll dispensers (Tork, Cascades, Kimberly-Clark, Georgia-Pacific, and most generic brands). The core diameter and roll outer diameter are industry-standard. If your dispenser is unusually compact or labeled as a specialty model, send us the brand and we'll confirm.
Are hand roll towels strong enough when wet?
Yes. The fibre blend is engineered for wet-strength — it'll handle drying hands, wiping wet surfaces, and absorbing spills without falling apart. They're not as strong as a microfiber cloth (different category entirely) but they perform comparably to all major commercial hand roll brands.
How long does one case last in a typical kitchen?
A 600ft × 12 roll case in a moderate-volume restaurant kitchen typically lasts 4–7 days. High-volume facilities (catering operations, food processing) burn through faster. For monthly pallet planning, work backward from your weekly consumption — most kitchens run 3–6 cases per week.
What is NHT06100?
It's the supplier code for the 600ft × 12 roll case. When re-ordering, citing NHT06100 ensures you get the same product. The 800ft and 1000ft variants have their own codes — request a quote and we'll document them on your order.
Do you carry Centre Pull, Single Fold, or Inter Fold towels?
Yes — by request. Those formats serve specific dispenser ecosystems (e.g., Centre Pull for top-load tabletop dispensers, Single Fold for compact wall-mount units). They're not stocked as routinely as multifold or hand roll, but we can source and quote them for any facility that needs them. Email Sales@clwdistributor.com with your dispenser brand/model.
