Tissue products having one or more plies, such as facial tissue, bath tissue and paper towels, are made having a Wet Compressed Bulk of about 4.5 cc/gm or greater, a Loading Energy Ratio of about 50 percent or greater, and a Wet Springback of about 50 percent or greater. Each ply has a basis weight of from about 10 to about 70 grams per square meter and a flexibility, as measured by the ratio of the geometric mean modulus to the geometric mean tensile strength, of 4.25 km/kg or less. Such products exhibit superior integrity when in use. |
