The history of Scott Paper Towels dates back to 1879 when Clarence and Irvin Scott, founders of the Scott Paper Company, established the foundation of what would become a significant innovation in the paper industry . Initially, in 1907, the Scott brothers introduced the earliest version of paper towels, primarily intended for medical purposes as a sanitary alternative to cloth towels in the healthcare sector . The accidental invention of paper towels by Arthur Scott, head of the Scott Paper Company, occurred when he found himself with an excessive shipment of thick paper rolls. This led to the repurposing of these rolls into small towel-size sheets, giving birth to the disposable paper towel as we know it today . Over time, paper towels evolved from their medicinal roots to become a staple in households and public restrooms for various cleaning tasks. The public initially hesitated to use paper towels as a replacement for cloth towels, but as the convenience became evident, paper towels gradually gained acceptance and popularity . The environmental impact of paper towels has raised concerns due to their production process involving deforestation and habitat destruction. However, brands like Reel Paper are now offering sustainable alternatives without compromising on convenience . Scott Paper Company continued to innovate and grow over the years, becoming a global consumer products company known for its tissue products like paper towels and napkins. The company's success was marked by its impressive product research and development efforts, leading to dominance in the American market for mid-range tissue paper and paper towels . Ultimately, Scott Paper Company merged with Kimberly-Clark Corporation, maintaining many of its well-known brands under its new parent company.
