海角社区 Consumer Goods, one of our business units, has launched the toilet paper brand Mimmo.With superior quality and unique design, Mimmo was developed to surpass the expectations of Brazilian consumers and show that higher quality also bring advantages in terms of yield and cost-benefit trade-off. Mimmo is softer, plush and yields more than the one-ply toilet papers available on the market.

The brand鈥檚 advantages include the exclusive 鈥渃ut here鈥 smart perforation, which indicates the ideal amount to use, and easy-start rolls that avoid waste. The new brand will be represented by a teddy bear designed exclusively to serve as its mascot.

The Mimmo teddy bear will be featured on the packaging and sheets and in advertising campaigns.
