Product Details
Same Thing. Different awning.
The Grey Tissue Thing is an Australian-made 4WD and car tissue holder for soft-pack facial tissues, cut and sewn from lightweight grey ripstop polyester reclaimed from a 4WD awning.
Unlike the heavier canvas used for the original Tissue Thing, this awning material is lighter and softer while doing exactly the same job. Drop a soft pack inside, pull one through the opening and stick the Thing somewhere handy. Two Velcro strips on the back let you attach it to compatible roof linings, dash mats and carpeted drawer surfaces.
Cab, canopy, camper, caravan, everyday car or camp setup. Keep the tissues within reach instead of letting the packet get crushed, kicked around or buried under the gear.
The material still had plenty of life left in it, so rather than binning it we've turned it into something useful. They're made in small runs from the awning material we've got, with some variation possible between individual Things.
Why You Need This Thing
- Velcro-Backed. Two strips on the back let you attach it to compatible roof linings, dash mats and carpeted drawer surfaces.
- Reclaimed 4WD Awning Material. Made from lightweight grey ripstop polyester that's already spent time as part of a 4WD awning.
- Made for Soft Packs. Designed around the compact Kleenex Facial Tissue Soft 60 Pack.
- Lightweight and Simple. A reusable tissue holder for 4WDs, cars, campers and caravans without a bulky hard tissue box.
Kitchen Table Made. Cut and sewn here in Australia on my kitchen table, without my wife's approval, from reclaimed 4WD awning material.
Size: Approx. 130mm x 165mm.
Fits: Kleenex Facial Tissue Soft 60 Pack and similar compact soft-pack facial tissues. Tissues not included.
Mounting: Two Velcro strips on the back. Attachment depends on the surface material and grip. Keep clear of airbags, driving controls and visibility.
A note on the material: This isn't new fabric. It's reclaimed ripstop polyester that's already spent time as part of a 4WD awning, so some variation in marks and wear is part of the deal.

Made from an old thing. Turned into a new Thing.
Made for the Rig
Made because it's useful.
A packet of tissues doesn't need to spend its life sliding around the cabin or disappearing under a seat.
The Tissue Thing gives them a dedicated spot in your touring setup, so they're where you want them when you need them.
Stick It Somewhere Handy
Two Velcro strips. Plenty of places to stick it.
Two Velcro strips on the back let you attach the Tissue Thing to compatible roof linings, dash mats and carpeted drawers.
Keep tissues within reach instead of having a loose packet sliding around the cab, canopy or camper.
No drilling. No complicated mounting system. Just find a suitable surface that grips and stick it where it's handy.
A quick heads-up: Velcro grip depends on the surface. Always check for a secure hold and position the Tissue Thing clear of airbags, driving controls and visibility.
Small Thing. Handy Idea.
A place for the tissues.
Made to hold a Kleenex Facial Tissue Soft 60 Pack, with an opening that lets you pull tissues out when you need them.
Simple, practical and one less loose packet floating around your touring setup.
