We would like to introduce you to LastTissue. It’s like if a handkerchief and a tissue pack had a baby ?.
We’re bringing you the best of both worlds: the easy, on-the-go ?♀️ availability of the tissue pack and the environmentally-friendly?, soft-on-the-nose handkerchief. We want to bring the handkerchief back into mainstream culture.
Simply take a tissue from the bottom, use it, and then store it on top of the marked-tissue barrier. This way, you’ll push the clean tissues down, making them ready to use and dividing them from the used. You’ll know you’re on your last tissue when the marked one appears – that means it’s cleaning time. After washing, you repack and use them all over again.
The paper and pulp industry is the third largest industrial emitter of global warming gasses?. Every year around 8,000,000 trees ? are cut down to make facial tissues for the US alone.
Deforestation can lead to a direct loss of wildlife habitat ?. The removal of trees reduces available food, shelter, and breeding habitat. It also removes the miraculous effect the trees have of cleaning our carbon emissions to breathable oxygen – helping to prevent climate change ?.
?Every time you blow your nose with a LastTissue, you save 2 liters of water.
⚡It takes 3 times more energy to produce paper tissues compared to the reusable cotton tissues.
? With one LastTissue pack you will save the planet from more than 2800 single-use tissues as well as their plastic packaging.
Imagine a world with more trees?, less production⚙️, less shipping✈️ and less CO2 emissions. Imaging a world with objects that last. Together let us reduce – and even eliminate – the need for single-use products.
Every day 22,000 trees? are cut down just to supply facial tissues for The US. Imagine how many trees are cut down worldwide. This is simply unnecessary. Reusability can make a huge difference.
137 species of animals are going extinct every day because of deforestation. Our five colors represent five species that are endangered due to deforestation.
? Raccoon Blue. The pygmy raccoon, is a critically endangered species off the coast of Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico.
? Dragonfly Turquoise. 163 Mediterranean dragonflies and damselflies shows that five species are critically endangered.
? Fox Peach. Darwin’s fox originally found in southern temperate rain forests is considered to have the highest extinction risk of any Chilean mammals.
? Palm Green. With only 40 trees left in the wild, the Carpoxylon Palm is listed as Critically Endangered.
? Redwood Red. The redwood species contains the largest and tallest trees in the world. Endangered due to habitat losses.
71,910 km² of forest is cut down every year to make single-use tissues for the US alone. That’s the size of Rhode Island, Delaware, Connecticut, New Jersey and New Hampshire COMBINED ?. And this is for something you use ones and throw away.
By reusing we are eliminating the need for a product that uses our resources, is manufactured, packaged and shipped constantly. In the long run you save money, save the planet and in this case a whole lot of trees!
Change our everyday actions in order to change our lives and the world will change with us.

Last year we made LastSwab that was crowdfunded with more than 30,000 backers (THANK YOU?).
The last year has been a quite a ride. We have learned the following, be 100% sure we are shipping plastic? free, be 100% sure we are shipping EU and US friendly?, make all molds before launch, do a test production before launch and make sure to deliver on time or before promises.
Everything has been set up?, we are ready and so excited to share LastTissue with all of you. We just hope that Murphy and his Law don’t come around. If he does, we will work around the clock until we’ve fixed the issues and we promise to communicate openly about everything.

At LastObject we are always dedicated to creating sustainable alternatives to single-use items in pursuit of a cleaner environment ?. Since our successful launch on Kickstarter with LastSwab our small team has crowned into a handful of Waste Warriors that share the same goal from all over the globe.
-To eliminate single-use items globally-
We work with trusted American, Canadian and French partners that have all been sourcing out of China for more than 10 years. They take pride in making sure all their factories have verified certification. Good work conditions, a responsible supply of materials and recycling are all areas that are supported in our factories.
From our last Kickstarter (LastSwab) we learned that tooling (molds) and tests take an awfully long time, so this time everything has been sourced beforehand and all molds tested.
We have even made a test production of 1000 pieces that have been handed out to people for testing and feedback. We have done this so you can receive a high-quality product within three months of the campaign ending.
All pledges are shipped from Denmark with the exception of US addresses, they will be shipped from the US. This way no Europeans or US citizens will be taxed or charged extra VAT.
We are shipping 100% plastic free.
Please note that people living outside of Europe and The US will be responsible for duties, fees and taxes applicable to their region.
MANUFACTURING: •We’ve made a test run of 1000 pieces and found a few improvement for the final product, because of this test we are confident that everything will be going smoothly, but unforeseen things might occur, if this should happen we promise communicate honest about it, please read our updates here on Kickstarter for more information. •We have chosen the same manufacture as we use for LastSwab + an extra manufacture so if something will cause a delay, we will hopefully still be able to ensure timely delivery.
