Napkin Paper is a different kind of tissue than Bath (napkin shouldn’t dissolve easy while toilet paper should). The big converters (local brands like Cielo, níveo, but also the private label brands of The big supermarkets are 100% made of bath tissue. At the colmado or informal market you light come across toilet paper made of stock and job lots of tissue paper which might be anything. In the past there was a small tissue mill in San Cristobal who made a very dark grey cheap toilet paper (of recycled waste paper), that was even more like sand paper than newspaper. They went out of business. Scott has an imported product and a locally converted product, the latter being cheaper. In San Pedro there is a full tissue mill making their tissue paper from virgen pulp, converting it themselves to toilet paper rolls and selling the surplus of their tissue to local converters, good quality tissue.
By the way, the private labels are by far the most sold in the supermarkets , then Nigua’s and Termoenvases’ brands and the Kimberly Clark imported brands come way back.
What might make you notice a difference though with imported brands is the way they buff up the paper by embossing, more layers and laminations, which will make it notably more comfortable.
