Frequently Asked Questions...
What are eco-friendly nappies?
Eco-friendly nappies are made from sustainable, biodegradable, or compostable materials that reduce the environmental impact of traditional disposable nappies. They're often free from harsh chemicals, plastics, and synthetic fragrances, making them safer for both baby and planet.
How do eco-friendly nappies compare to traditional disposable nappies in terms of performance?
Eco-friendly nappies are designed to offer similar performance to traditional disposable nappies, including absorbency and leak protection. However, the specific performance can vary by brand. Many eco-friendly nappies are tested rigorously to ensure they meet high standards of absorbency and comfort. Cloth nappies may require more frequent changes but can be very effective with proper use.
Are eco-friendly nappies more expensive than conventional nappies?
Eco-friendly nappies can save money in the long run since they are reusable and can be used for multiple children if cared for properly. The higher cost of eco-friendly disposables often reflects their sustainable production and materials. Our Muumi Nappies range is 15% off using the ‘Mummi15’ code at the Checkout.
How should I care for cloth eco-friendly nappies?
To care for cloth eco-friendly nappies, wash them in a large load with a mild, eco-friendly detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, bleach, or high heat, as these can damage the fabric and reduce absorbency. It's best to follow the manufacturer’s care instructions for washing and drying. Regularly stripping the nappies can also help maintain their performance.
Are eco-friendly nappies suitable for all babies?
Eco-friendly nappies are generally suitable for most babies, but individual needs can vary. For babies with particularly sensitive skin or specific medical conditions, it’s important to check for any skin reactions and consult with a healthcare provider if needed. Always choose nappies that fit well and provide the necessary absorbency for your baby's age and size.
Are eco nappies as absorbent as regular disposable nappies?
Yes – modern eco nappies like Muumi Baby are designed with high absorbency and leak protection, comparable to leading disposable brands, while using natural and biodegradable materials.
What makes Muumi Baby nappies eco-friendly?
Muumi Baby nappies are made in Finland using 100% FSC-certified cellulose, chlorine-free oxygen bleaching, and biodegradable packaging. They're manufactured with renewable energy in a carbon-neutral facility, making them one of the most sustainable nappy options in New Zealand.
Are Muumi Baby nappies suitable for sensitive skin?
Absolutely. Muumi nappies are free from fragrances, lotions, dyes, and chlorine, making them ideal for babies with eczema, allergies, or sensitive skin. They're dermatologically tested and recommended by Finnish Allergy, Skin and Asthma Federation.
Can I compost Muumi Baby nappies?
The main absorbent core of Muumi nappies is biodegradable, but because not all components break down easily (like tabs and elastic), they are not fully compostable in home systems. Check with your local waste provider for commercial composting options.
What’s the difference between Muumi Baby and other eco nappy brands?
Muumi Baby stands out for its carbon-neutral production, minimalist ingredients, and eco-conscious packaging. While other brands also focus on sustainability, Muumi combines environmental responsibility with high performance and Nordic quality.
Are eco nappies more expensive than regular nappies?
Eco nappies can be slightly more expensive due to their sustainable materials and ethical production. However, many parents find the benefits for baby’s skin and the environment well worth the investment.
Do Muumi nappies perform as well as regular disposable nappies?
Yes! Muumi nappies are known for excellent absorbency, a snug fit, and leak protection, providing performance comparable to mainstream brands without compromising on sustainability.
Are Muumi nappies safe for newborns and sensitive skin?
Absolutely. Muumi nappies are dermatologically tested and suitable for babies with eczema or delicate skin, thanks to their chemical-free, breathable materials.
