Abstract

A tissue paper web composed of one or more layers. At least one layer includes pulp fibers originating from at least one plant belonging to the genus Miscanthus wherein the pulp fibers are selected from chemical pulp fibers, mechanical pulp fibers subjected to a chemical pretreatment and mixtures thereof. The use of Miscanthus pulp fibers can lead to a major absolute increase in tensile strength along with good softness values.
