Scott Paper Company

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Scott Paper Company is a USA-based corporation which manufactures mostly paper based consumer products.

Scott Paper was founded in 1879 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania by brothers E. Irvin and Clarence Scott, and is often credited as being the first to market toilet paper sold on a roll. They began marketing paper towels in 1907, and paper napkins in the 1930s.

In 1995 Scott Paper merged with the Kimberly-Clark Corporation which continues to use the Scott brandname. Scott Paper Limited, formerly a Canadian subsidiary, is no longer affiliated.
