Abstract
A foam-formed nonlaminated stratified paper tissue and method of making the same includes a first zone of foam-formed paper tissue formed from a furnish of hardwood fiber. A second zone of foam-formed paper tissue is formed from a furnish of softwood fiber. The second zone is formed unitary and entangled with the first zone to form a nonlaminated stratified paper tissue. A high softness integument is defined adjacent to an outer surface of the first zone and a substratum is defined adjacent to a surface of the second zone spaced away from the integument. The integument on the outer surface of the first zone includes an enriched region having a substantial purity of hardwood fiber and the substratum on the surface of the second zone includes an enriched region having a substantial purity of softwood fiber. The enriched region of substantially pure hardwood fiber provides an extremely soft and smooth surface detectable by human somatic sensibility.
