We choose to use a blend because it offers the best balance between natural comfort and long-term performance. While cotton is soft, breathable, and gentle against baby’s skin, it can lose shape, take longer to dry, and often becomes stiff or hard after repeated washing without the use of fabric softeners. By adding a small percentage of polyester, we enhance the fabric’s structure, helping to improve absorbency while maintaining softness and flexibility over time. It also provides unmatched durability and shape retention, allowing our nappies to withstand frequent washing and wear without breaking down. This means they can be reliably used across multiple children, rather than being discarded after just one or two, reducing waste and keeping more out of landfill.
Our fabric is uniquely developed for us and is knitted locally, ensuring consistent quality and supporting local manufacturing. It has been thoroughly tried and tested to perform in real-life conditions, giving you confidence in both its reliability and longevity.
While polyester is often associated with higher energy and water use during production, its quick drying time significantly reduces energy consumption during everyday use—making it a more efficient choice over the product’s lifetime. The result is a nappy that performs better, lasts longer, dries faster and is ultimately both more cost-effective for families and kinder to the planet.
