                                      <span class="media-credit image-block__media-credit">Getty Composite</span>
                      
                        
        

    
      <p>If you're worried about having enough wipes for your counters or toilet paper for your bum, don't be -- suppliers have so much of the good stuff now, it's coming out their ... y'know.</p>
  

    
      <p>TMZ spoke with companies in the disinfectant and tush tissue trades, and they assure us they're well-equipped to handle more lockdowns, and even panic buying. The bottom line, if you will ... they've learned from the first time around.</p>
  

    
                          
    
          
                  <img class="img-fluid image-block__img-fluid img-aspect-auto"  data-src="/uploads/2020/11/25/toilet-paper-disinfectant-companies-stocked-for-2nd-lockdown-1.jpg" loading="lazy" alt="">
                                        
                                      <span class="media-credit image-block__media-credit">Getty</span>
                      
                        
        

    
      <p>Take Cottonelle and Scott toilet paper, for example ... a rep for Kimberly-Clark -- the personal care conglomerate owns both brands -- tells us there's absolutely enough supply of both as COVID's resurgence has many states teetering on the verge of hunkering down again.</p>
  

    
      <p>We're told KC cut back on manufacting other products it sells in order to focus resources on cranking out more perforated protection for your caboose.</p>
  

    
                          
    
          
                  <img class="img-fluid image-block__img-fluid img-aspect-auto"  data-src="/uploads/2020/11/25/toilet-paper-disinfectant-companies-stocked-for-2nd-lockdown-2.jpg" loading="lazy" alt="">
                                        
                                      <span class="media-credit image-block__media-credit">Bumboo</span>
                      
                        
        

    
      <p>There's another company called Bumboo -- which makes bamboo toilet paper -- and they tell us something similar ... that they've gotten ahead of an anticipated second surge -- which knocked 'em on their ass the first time around -- and put their manufacturing into overdrive.</p>
  

    
      <p>As a result, we're told Bumboo has a lot of overstock right now heading into winter. The company's also pointing folks to its subscription service as an efficient way to order ahead of time.</p>
  

    
      <p>As for the other wipes -- for objects and surfaces -- a rep for Clorox tells us the company is shipping out about 1 million packages per DAY in an effort to keep up with demand, which, as you'd expect, has been super high.</p>
  

    
      <p>Clorox says it's already shipped out 50% more product this year than all of 2019.</p>

  watchConsent(function (canUse) {
    canUse('twitter') ? accept() : reject();
  });
});
</script>
  

    
      <p>Still, if you went shopping last weekend you know the rush is already on -- many of the big retailers, like Target in Bev Hills, had empty shelves as buzz spread about curfews and new COVID closures.</p>
  

    
      <p>The good news is reinforcements are on the way, which is why manufacturers want everyone to chill out on the panic purchasing.</p>
