We simply reuse the baby wipe containers that are
collapsible. |

To the extent that tissue boxes are a standard size, one could
make a device to retrofit this to existing boxes. It would be a set
of toothy metal jaws which would fit over the top of the box and,
when sat on, would introduce the necessary perforations to
allow a concertina effect. |

I offer you a belated welcome. |

Given that minimization of the described problem is the primary factor on the overall depth of a tissue box and hence directly linked to its capacity, collapsible tissue boxes would naturally be able to break this inherent barrier on the number of tissues stored. A tall box, perhaps three feet high, with an industrial quantity of tissues, utilising perhaps a telescopic collapsing mechanism, would initially live on the floor, then at the halfway mark be transferred to desk-height, and finally collapsing to nothing would resemble a conventional tissue box. |

However, supposing the cardboard to be 1/2 a mm thick, and
allowing a cm for each zig and each zag of the concertina fold,
your three-foot box would still stand about 5cm tall when fully
collapsed, leading to the eventual return of the original
complaint. |

Can not some solution employing combustion be implemented ? |
