Tork is the professional hygiene brand from Essity, a global hygiene and health company formed in 2017 when it split from SCA. Building on more than fifty years of hygiene product development, Tork has grown into one of the most recognized names in commercial washroom, wiping, and cleaning solutions across North America and worldwide.
Product Lines
SupplyHouse carries Tork dispensing systems and refills across several core categories: paper hand towels, bath tissue, soap and sanitizer dispensers, napkins, and industrial wipers. Product families range from manual and automatic dispensers to matched refill rolls and sheets, allowing facility managers and plumbing contractors outfitting new or renovated washrooms to standardize on one dispenser platform throughout a building.
Why Contractors Specify Tork
Plumbing and facilities contractors who handle washroom buildouts and renovations often specify Tork because the dispenser and refill systems are designed to work together as a matched set, simplifying ordering and reducing callbacks over mismatched components. Restaurants, healthcare facilities, schools, and office buildings represent Tork's core markets, so contractors serving those sectors can rely on a product line built specifically for high-traffic commercial washrooms rather than residential-grade paper goods.
How to Choose Tork Products
Selecting the right Tork system starts with matching the dispenser type and refill size to the traffic level and washroom layout of the building. High-traffic commercial restrooms typically call for high-capacity roll towel or jumbo tissue dispensers, while lower-traffic offices may be well served by standard folded towel or standard roll systems. Contractors should also consider whether a facility wants manual or touch-free dispensers, and confirm that refill sizes and mounting hardware match the existing or specified dispenser model before ordering replacement stock.
