Proven - Cloth are better for the enviroment

Washable Nappies Are Best for the Environment

It's official. A new governmet report comparing the environmental impact of reusable versus disposable nappies has concluded that reusable nappies are up to 40% better for the environment than their disposable counterparts. The key finding of the report shows that the environmental benefits are achieved by following simple washing guidelines like:

avoiding tumble drying nappies

using A-rated appliances and

washing in full loads at no more than 60 degrees

These are all measures we recommend and are commonly used by parents . The report highlights that unlike disposables, washable nappies put parents in control of the impact they have on the environment. Parents using cloth nappies will also be financially better off. It has long been known that real nappies save parents hundreds of pounds and now this advice on washing methods, which are supported and promoted by the NZ Nappy Alliance, will help reduce fuel bills too.

Hamilton Nappy Workshops

Hi everyone,

Just a quick note to let you know that I have another 2 Hamilton Workshops coming up at the end of November. The date is the 29th and we have 2 sessions running, one at 10am and the another at 1pm.

Bookings are a must as there are only 10 spaces available per session and the cost is $15 per couple and each couple takes home over $70 worth of free nappies.

Go to the website and contact me for more details.

Have a nappy day
