Hawaii Tissue Company β€” Founding Members

Help us bring the machines home.

We started by sourcing clean toilet paper for HawaiΚ»i families. The vision is bigger than that β€” local manufacturing, local jobs, and one less essential that has to cross an ocean to reach us.

Three phases. One vision.

Every phase keeps more money in HawaiΚ»i than what we have today, where 100% of everything leaves the islands.

Phase 1 β€” Now

Island Distribution

We source PFAS-free, BPA-free, chlorine-free toilet paper from a verified overseas manufacturer and deliver it directly to OΚ»ahu households and businesses. Starting on the westside β€” Ewa to Makaha.

Phase 2 β€” Next

Local Warehousing & Scale

Dedicated HawaiΚ»i-based storage and fulfillment. Expand to hotels, offices, B2B accounts, and neighboring islands. Build the infrastructure that stays here.

Phase 3 β€” The Goal

Made in HawaiΚ»i

Convert from import-and-distribute to produce-and-distribute. Local converting equipment, local workers, local jobs. This is when "made in HawaiΚ»i" becomes a factual statement.

What this fundraise is for

This is separate from our preorders. Every dollar here goes toward getting us to Phase 3 faster.

🏭
Manufacturing equipment Tissue converting machines are the bridge from importing a finished product to producing it here. That's the machine that changes everything.
🏝️
HawaiΚ»i-based operations Warehouse space, fulfillment routes, and the infrastructure that keeps this company rooted in the islands β€” not run from somewhere else.
πŸ‘·
Local jobs Phase 3 isn't just about toilet paper. It's about proving that locals can own the supply chain for things we use every day β€” and employ our own people to run it.

Questions

Is this separate from the regular preorder?
Yes. The regular preorder on tp-hawaii.co is for people who want to buy toilet paper and be part of the first delivery wave. The Founding Member program is for people who want to invest more in getting us to Phase 3 β€” local manufacturing. Think of it as backing the bigger mission, not just the product.
When do I get my toilet paper?
Founding Members receive their product supply starting with our first container delivery, with priority over the general preorder queue. We'll confirm your delivery timeline personally when we follow up.
What if I don't want the social media shoutout?
Totally fine β€” just leave the shoutout checkbox unchecked on the form. Your name will still appear on the Founders Wall unless you tell us you'd prefer otherwise.
What if HTC doesn't make it to Phase 3?
We're honest about where we are. This is a vision-level commitment, not a guaranteed outcome. The toilet paper supply is real and confirmed. The manufacturing milestones depend on continued community support and growth. We'll always be transparent about progress β€” or the lack of it.
Can businesses participate?
Absolutely. If you'd like your business name on the Founders Wall instead of or alongside your personal name, just let us know in the message field. We'll work out the details personally.
What's included in the custom website or web app perk?
At the $2,500 tier, we'll build you a custom landing page or a single-feature web tool for your business β€” think an online booking form, a simple product page, or a service menu. At the $5,000 tier, we'll build a full small business website including online scheduling so your customers can book directly. This is built personally by the HTC team, tailored to your business. We'll reach out after your contribution to scope it out together.
