I once did an audit at British Tissues...……..and was treated to a close up of the contraption which turns wood pulp and recycled paper into paper towels...…...it was the size of an articulated lorry, belching steam and looking like something out of Jules Verne.

Basically jets sprayed a watery paste onto a perforated heated steel plate, and the drying out sheet then went around umpteen rollers until paper towels came off the end on something like a huge roll of carpet. It was super impressive to see it up close.

It ran 24/7.

Although the Pretty Polly hosiery factory was more interesting. Did you know they use leg models?????...….on site...……...
