who patent toilet paper?

Toilet paper as a product has been around for a long time, and there have been many patents related to toilet paper over the years. However, it is difficult to determine who specifically holds the first patent for toilet paper, as the product has evolved and been refined over time by many different inventors and manufacturers.

One early patent for toilet paper was filed by Seth Wheeler in 1891. His patent described a roll of perforated paper that could be hung in a bathroom and torn off in individual sheets. This basic design has been used in many toilet paper products since then, and subsequent patents have focused on improvements to the paper, the rolls, and the dispensers used for toilet paper.

Today, there are many companies that manufacture and sell toilet paper, and while some may hold patents related to specific aspects of the product, it is unlikely that any single company or individual holds a patent for toilet paper as a whole.
