Help Finding Lab Supply: Fussy about Bench Paper

Hi,

I'm looking for some bench paper that I've used in other labs in the
past. Unfortunately, I have no idea where they purchased it or what it
was called. Googling for it has turned up nothing so far.

It is just white paper (contains no plastic) and is woven through with
white thread. It comes in long rolls.

Do you know where I can find this stuff?

Thanks,
Peg

Hi Bob,
Thanks for replying. Makes me feel like at least one person is out
there.
I will contact my old lab if I have to. I just hate bothering them for
something so trivial as bench paper.
My supplier has only offered me paper with the plastic backing, which I
don't want.
The collective power of the internet should be able to find it, right?

Hi Ron,
You're right, we do hardly anything on the open bench except write in
our lab books! This is especially important since I'm working with
dioxins.
The bench paper I'm after was tested for backgroung dioxins by soxhlet
extraction so I know it wouldn't contaminate my samples. I like to
paper my fume hoods because I build several extraction columns by hand
which can get messy.
I've decided to break down and bother my former co-workers for a
catalogue number and supplier. I'll post the results if I get any just
in case there's someone out there looking for a similar product.
