Cheeky Panda

Sustainable bamboo tissue brand replacing tree-based paper with planet-friendly alternatives for homes, businesses, and institutions.

The Cheeky Panda is a UK-based sustainable FMCG brand on a mission to reduce deforestation caused by traditional paper products. Founded in 2016, the company produces high-quality bamboo toilet paper, kitchen roll, tissues, wipes, and professional hygiene solutions.

By using bamboo rather than trees, The Cheeky Panda offers a fast-renewing, lower-impact alternative that delivers both environmental and commercial benefits. Its products are designed to match — and often outperform — conventional tissue products while significantly reducing carbon footprint and land use.

The business serves both consumers and organisations, supplying offices, hospitality venues, schools, healthcare settings, and large corporate partners. With a strong focus on innovation, branding, and ethical sourcing, The Cheeky Panda has become one of the UK’s leading sustainable consumer brands.
