Puffs and The Industry
There are currently five kinds of Puffs facial tissue: Puffs, Puffs Plus, Puffs Ultra, Puffs Plus with Vicks, and Puffs Travel. New for 2008, an industry first, Procter and Gamble have begun allowing consumers to create their own box designs and have the boxes shipped to them, allowing people to give one of a kind gifts. Puffs is made exclusively at the P&G Paper Products Co. in Green Bay, WI. In 2008, Puffs Plus with a touch of shea butter was launched, preceded by Puffs Plus with the scent of Vicks, launched in 2007.
Puffs' mascots are the Puffs Pals, stop-motion animated children who get "sorenositis" until handed a Puffs Plus tissue or whose noses literally run until given a Puffs Ultra tissue. They include Tom, Sam, Stan, Karen, Winnie, Oliver, Daisy, Peter, Jenny, Scott, Rudy, Rhonda, Owen, Myron and Molly. Each commercial is told in rhyme to go with the slogan. Then after the slogan, a different tissue is mentioned, usually Puffs Plus, Puffs Ultra, or Puffs Plus with the scent of Vicks.

Famous quotes containing the words puffs and, puffs and/or industry:
“The young men float on their backs, their white bellies bulge to
the sun, they do not ask who seizes fast to them,
They do not know who puffs and declines with pendant and bending arch,
They do not think whom they souse with spray.”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
““But there’s always been rich and poor, and that’s all there is to it. And us two won’t change it, either.”
The carpenter calmly puffs away: “Only the ones that likes it ought to be poor. Let the others have a try at it first. I ain’t got no liking for it. A fellow gets tired of it after a while.””
—Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)
“... we’re not out to benefit society, to remold existence, to make industry safe for anyone except ourselves, to give any small peoples except ourselves their rights. We’re not out for submerged tenths, we’re not going to suffer over how the other half lives. We’re out for Mary’s job and Luella’s art, and Barbara’s independence and the rest of our individual careers and desires.”
—Anne O’Hagan (1869–?)
