In the modern manufacturing business, one of the fastest growing areas is the production of toilet paper. Each year, the number of manufacturers increases by 5 - 7 percent, while the business itself remains profitable. Like any other type of production activity, the production of toilet paper requires significant material costs. For successful business, it is best to initially draw up a business plan. After compiling it, it will be possible to make the right choice of equipment and take the right actions in marketing, thereby eliminating unnecessary costs and losses. With the right approach to production, your toilet paper business can pay off in a year.
How to organize the production of toilet paper
To open a workshop for the production of toilet paper, first of all, it is necessary to register it as a legal entity. For this, it is necessary to submit to the tax office the entire package of constituent documents. Then register with non-state funds - pension and compulsory health insurance. Of all the possible forms of registration of an organization, the most optimal option would be an LLC form. The toilet paper production line can be located in any non-residential premises with its actual address. Now, to make non-cash payments, you can open an account with a bank.
The choice of production facilities
The area of the workshop should be sufficient to place a warehouse for raw materials for the production of toilet paper, the technological chain of equipment itself and the warehouse of finished products. It is also necessary to take into account the mandatory presence of water, sewage and electricity in the room. It is desirable that there are convenient access roads for unloading raw materials and shipping finished products.
What equipment to choose
The purchase of the necessary equipment and inventory is the maximum material investment in the creation of production. Therefore, the issues of its procurement and maintenance must be approached with very great care. Equipment for the production of toilet paper is purchased after you have decided on the desired production capacity of the workshop. If you plan to sell 100 kg of toilet paper (the usual weight of one roll is about 110 grams, i.e. about 900 rolls per day), then it’s enough to create a mini production of toilet paper. If you plan to ship finished products in larger batches, it is better to purchase all equipment with approximately the same high capacity.
Many modern enterprises offer various models of units and installations for the workshop at various prices. They have everything in their assortment in order to create any production of toilet paper with any output of finished products. However, in any case, it is better to purchase equipment manufactured in your area. In the event of a breakdown of a node or failure of any part, the supplier is obliged to provide a free warranty service and configuration of the equipment. In order to avoid long downtime of the production workshop, the master of the nearest representative office will be able to quickly reach you.
Purchase of raw materials
Do not forget that the raw stock always has the necessary three-day supply of waste paper. To do this, you must find reliable suppliers, for example, conclude an agreement with any printing house or organize a regular purchase of waste paper from the local population. Raw materials for the production of toilet paper should be clean. Waste paper is sorted into classes. Each type of classified paper is suitable for the production of a product (toilet paper, cardboard, paper napkins and towels). The quality of the final product depends on the quality of the purchased raw materials.
Sales of toilet paper
Typically, toilet paper is produced around the clock. With the continuous production of even a small workshop with a capacity of 100 kg of finished products per day, a decent supply will be accumulated during the month of work in the warehouse.
Therefore, the marketing of products should be focused on large and wholesale buyers. Equally important for the sale is the availability of a range of products. Due to the variety of colors, shapes and sizes, you can achieve a high level of sales. Using the same equipment, you can produce toilet paper or paper towels, as well as paper napkins.
Manufacturing process
The production line is conventionally divided into three parts: waste paper processing, paper production and the formation of the final product. In the waste paper processing zone, raw materials should be prepared in the best possible way, the final product quality depends on this. Here, the waste paper is crushed and mixed with water, resulting in a homogeneous pulp, which is called pulp. In the second zone, more thorough cleaning of small impurities and bleaching of the pulp takes place. Then the pulp enters the drum, with the help of which the pattern is embossed and the paper is dried.
Under the formation of the final product should be understood, winding the resulting paper into bobbins, gluing and cutting rolls.
Staff
To ensure that the products are of high quality, and the production is uninterrupted, try to hire responsible and decent workers. Typically, the production of toilet paper is carried out around the clock, so the staff can be from 6 people, not including an accountant and a storekeeper. Some positions can be combined, this will help to avoid unnecessary costs for labor. You can solve administrative issues, questions regarding the purchase of raw materials and sales of products yourself.
