About Company
At Irving Tissue, we know the key to success is our people.
We are a leading manufacturer of premium quality tissue products – including national brands Royale® in Canada and Scotties® in the US - and private label.
We pride ourselves in our commitment to providing the best quality products and exceptional service to our consumers and customers.
Our parent company - J.D. Irving, Limited, is a responsible steward of the forests. Each year, its forest operations harvest less than 2 percent of the forest it manages, ensuring that the company grows more wood than it harvests. J.D. Irving has planted more than 1 billion trees since 1957, and the J.D. Irving Forest Supply Chain has been declared carbon neutral.
