COVID-19 emergency has caused a big revolution in terms of habits and ways to go of all of us. The usage of disposable products is destined to be ever greater in order to ensure maximum hygiene and comply with regulations for infection prevention. Interfolded products have been specifically designed to allow the fruition with the simple use of a single hand, without touching other products. The usage of interfolded products, as towels and interfolded kitchen towels, makes all the process completely hygienic.
