Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS)

What's 'new' about Brawny paper towels? Why did you decide to change the towel?
We at Georgia-Pacific are always endeavoring to bring to you the best possible products we can to help you live a better, fuller life. New Brawny is the culmination of many people's months and even years of work, and is redesigned to do more, so you can do less. This paper towel is softer, thicker and more cloth like than before. It combines the classic strength you expect from Brawny paper towels, so it's durable enough to clean a greasy skillet, yet soft enough to wipe a child's face.

Brawny paper towels help you to make light of everyday messes!

Can Brawny paper towels be used for cleaning glass?
Yes, as well as many other surfaces. We recommend white towels because the printed towels may transfer ink to the surface being cleaned.

Can Brawny paper towels be used in the microwave?
Yes; however, we recommend white towels for any food use. Improper microwave use can cause any paper product to burn, so please follow the precautions in the owner's manual of your microwave.

Is the Brawny man real?
The Brawny Man was conceptualized in 1974 as a symbol of working strength of Brawny paper towels. Although the Brawny Man has worn many styles and faces, he is not based on a real person.

Can I find this particular print?
We don't offer just any print designs in Brawny paper towels. Our prints are carefully designed, researched and vetted, and crafted to appeal to you. We like to keep things fresh for you, and so we often change our print designs.
We are unable to provide a print design that existed earlier, but you can check the current designs available here.

You may check with your favorite store if they carry the specific print you're looking for. Since printed towels are packed in mixed cases, some stores may not carry a specific pattern.

Who makes your prints now?
Our prints are designed and crafted by a panel of designers, in-house and external.

What happened to Brawny paper napkins?
We don't make or sell Brawny paper napkins anymore. But we'd recommend you try Vanity Fair® paper napkins, Dixie™ paper napkins, and Mardi Gras® paper napkins, also made by Georgia-Pacific Consumer Products LP.

Where can I find Brawny Industrial™ Wipes?
You may contact a local distributor in the customer's area (city and state). Contact Commercial Customer Service at 1-800-558-5858 for the distributor(s) contact information.
