Abstract

See full text

This invention is directed to a facial tissue dispensing system which is a portable, flexible pack for dispensing large tissues. The portable, flexible pack container is thin yet contains regular-sized or large-sized tissues for cleaning in the alternative to paper towels or rags. Before being placed into the container, each of the tissues is first reversibly folded three times onto itself to decrease the size of the tissue in first or lateral dimension and is second reversibly folded onto itself at least one time to decrease the size of the tissue in a second or longitudinal dimension, which is generally perpendicular to the first dimension. The tissues are folded such that they unfold as they pass through the tissue dispensing opening of the container. The tissue dispensing opening may be covered by a resealable closure flap. In this manner, tissues are kept from the environment to keep them clean and dry. This invention is also directed to a container for containing and dispensing the portable, flexible packs.
