• If needed you can do a cold pre-rinse
• Please wash in cold/warm water
• Please do not soak in bleach or similar products
• Please do not use fabric softener
• If you feel you have detergent residue building up on your nappies you can try doing a double rinse at the end of the wash cycle
• Line drying is best but if you must you can occassionally tumble dry on the lowest setting. Please remember that like any garment, dryer use may reduce the lifespan of your nappy.
• Remember to wash before use!

WASHING AND DRY-PAILING

When it comes time to wash the nappies (with a good nappy system in place this can be every 2-3 days) you just pop them in the washing machine with a little detergent and wash on warm/hot. A pre-rinse can also work. *No fabric softener as this coats the nappy which can result in less absorbency or can be the cause of irritation to the skin.

Then all you need to do is hang the nappies out to dry! Sunlight is best as it works as a natural bleacher. This might sound like the most tedious part but with all the washing a little one generates, what's an extra load? It's really not that hard to hang a few nappies on the line!

Dry-pailing is the most popular (and much safer) option compared to wet-pailing as water in a nappy bucket can be a safety hazard around small children. Believe it or not, there is no need for soaking nappies these days. Dry-pailing just means you pop the soiled nappy in the nappy bucket after disposing of waste down the toilet (if necessary).

NAPPY SPRAYERS

These fabulous inventions can make disposing of waste easier. The nappy sprayer is like a spray gun that just attaches to the toilet and you use it to spray the waste off the liner or nappy. Our nappy sprayers are available under the Accessories page of our website.
