Tissue Paper | Coloured & Acid-Free Tissue Paper, Reams of 500

What Is Tissue Paper?

Tissue paper is the soft, lightweight, easy-folding paper that goes inside gift bags, lines hampers, wraps around delicate items, and turns plain packaging into a finished, considered experience. At a delicate 17–19gsm, it drapes and crinkles beautifully, takes pattern and colour vibrantly, and is one of the most cost-effective ways to add brand, occasion, or care to any kind of wrap.

QIS stocks tissue paper across two distinct ranges — 18 vibrant colours plus an Assorted Rainbow pack for everyday retail and gift use, and acid-free white tissue paper in two sizes for archival storage of textiles, photos, art, and other valuables that need to last. Same-day dispatch on orders before 12pm.

Why Choose QIS Tissue Paper?

Tissue paper does two distinct jobs depending on the type. The everyday coloured tissue is the lightweight workhorse of retail bag stuffing, gift wrap layering, hamper presentation, pom-pom making, and craft — bright, cheap, expressive, and meant to be enjoyed and then thrown away. The acid-free white is the long-term storage tissue used by wedding-dress preservers, archivists, museums, framers, and conservators — pH-neutral so it won't yellow, brown, or damage delicate items even after years of storage.

Choose the type that matches the job — or use both together, since premium retailers often layer brand-coloured tissue over an acid-free white base when wrapping high-value items. Backed by QIS's 5% price-beat guarantee.

Coloured vs Acid Free — Which Do You Need?

A quick guide to choosing the right tissue:

• Use coloured tissue for everyday retail bag stuffing, gift wrap, hampers, florist work, pom-poms, parties, crafts, and event decoration — anywhere the tissue ends up in the bin within hours or days. Cheap, vibrant, and expressive.
• Use acid-free white tissue for storing wedding dresses, christening gowns, vintage textiles, photographs, art, ceramics, framed prints, jewellery, and anything else that's being kept for months or years. Protects against yellowing and damage from regular tissue's residual acids.
• Use both together for premium retail experiences — wrap delicate purchases in acid-free white inside the box, then layer brand-coloured tissue on top inside the gift bag.
