Royale Velour Toilet Paper, 12 Double Rolls
A soft Canadian made 2-ply roll, held back by lint and a modest sheet count.
The short version
- Households in Canada that want a soft 2-ply roll from a Canadian maker
- Homes on septic systems, given the maker's septic safe statement
- Lint on skin or bathroom surfaces would bother you
- You buy mainly on cost per sheet
What owners like
- Soft and thick feel that buyers compare well against other supermarket brands
- Reasonably strong for a soft roll
- Liked by shoppers who want a Canadian made brand
Common complaints
- Leaves lint and small white bits behind, the most repeated complaint
- Some find it thinner than expected and use more per visit

What it does
A 2-ply Canadian toilet paper from Irving's Royale brand, sold as 12 double rolls that equal 24 regular rolls, with 142 sheets per roll.
- Velour is Royale's soft and thick line, which the maker markets as plush and thick
- Double rolls mean fewer roll changes than a single roll pack
- Royale says its bathroom tissue breaks down easily in plumbing and is safe for septic systems
- Royale says its tissue products are carbon neutral across their footprint, verified to ISO 14068-1, with no purchased offsets
A good pick for Canadian shoppers who want a soft, thick 2-ply roll from a brand made in Canada. The trade-offs are lint, which comes up again and again in forum threads, and a modest sheet count per roll that makes it a weaker deal per sheet than bulk or triple roll packs.
