Why Reusable Nappies?

This week is Reusable Nappy Week which coincides nicely with yesterday’s Earth Day, let's focus on a simple change that can have a massive impact on our planet.

Switching from disposable to reusable nappies is not just a parenting choice—it's a step away from unnecessary waste and a move towards a more sustainable lifestyle.

Less Carbon, More Future

Did you know that reusable nappies generate 25% less CO2 than their disposable alternatives? With the production environmental impact over 90% lower for reusables, it’s clear that the choice to switch is a powerful one for the planet. Every reusable nappy or pair of washable pants used helps towards a cleaner, greener Earth.

Material Matters: The Raw Truth

Consider this: over two and a half years, disposables use up a staggering 128.36Kg of raw materials compared to just 3.22Kg for reusables. By opting for reusable nappies, we significantly reduce the depletion of our natural resources.

The Practical Benefits of Going Reusable

Water Wise: A Clear Difference

While washing three loads of nappies a week uses about 220 litres of water, producing disposables for the same period consumes approximately 1,550 litres. Reusable nappies aren't just about reducing waste; they're also about conserving another precious resource: water.

A Hefty Issue: Reducing Waste One Nappy at a Time

More disposable nappies are found in UK household waste than anything else. By switching out just one single-use nappy a day for a reusable, you could save 912 nappies from landfill each year. If every child/parent in the UK made this switch, imagine the lasting impact we could have!
