Flushability

Despite the discontinuation of the Fine to Flush certification in the UK, we remain committed to maintaining the high standards for our product's flushability, so you can be reassured that our plastic-free Andrex Washlets continue to be safe for UK sewers. They continue to meet the relevant UK standards and also have passed international INDA/EDANA flushability standards. We recommend flushing 1-2 wipes per flush.

Andrex® Classic Clean Washlets™ Moist Toilet Tissue packs are now recycle-ready. They can be recycled with plastic bags at large supermarkets. Our other packs (Andrex® Gentle Clean Washlets™ Moist Toilet Tissue, Andrex® Supreme Washlets™ Moist Toilet Tissue and Andrex® Skin Kind Washlets™ Moist Toilet Tissue) will move in to recycle-ready packs in the upcoming weeks. This change will save 121 tonnes of plastic from going into landfill every year.

They have passed international (INDA/EDANA Flushability Guidelines) requirements and the UK Water Industry Standard and can be flushed at home. Andrex Washlets have been specifically designed to be flushable like toilet tissue whereas most non-flushable wipes such as baby wipes, cosmetic wipes and household cleaning wipes are much thicker in order to give wipes strength, so they don’t break up in use. Andrex^® Washlets™ Moist Toilet Tissues, are made from 100% cellulose fibres and contain 0% plastic. They have passed international (INDA/EDANA Flushability Guidelines) requirements and the UK Water Industry Standard and can be flushed at home. We recommend flushing 1-2 wipes per flush. Baby wipes, cosmetic wipes and household wipes must never be flushed down the toilet as they can contribute to sewer blockages and fatbergs and should be disposed of in a bin instead. That s why we voluntarily label all non-flushable wipes with the ‘Do Not Flush’ label on their packs. Not all wipes are flushable and it is important to always check the products’ packaging for advice on how to best dispose of the product. If a wipe is labelled ‘Do Not Flush’, it is important to throw these in the bin.
