Until it is clean, a baby will use over 7,000 disposable diapers, or nearly one ton of waste ... In Canada, more than one billion trees are cut down each year to manufacture disposable diapers ...
course, we first used cloth diapers to reduce pollution and feel we are doing something concrete to preserve the planet. In addition, it saves money! The average cost for layers disposables for 30 months is $ 2 000. For our
Ratatouille, we chose to use pre-formed layers brand Mother Helena. This is a layer of bamboo fiber, molded to be shaped like a disposable diaper equipped with Velcro. The same layer is used from birth to cleanliness, it grows with baby. We must put a cap layer on top to insulate the layer of clothing.
For a kit of 26 layers with 12 diaper covers, a boiler, a bag, sheets, disposable liners and a layer of night for the pool, it cost us $ 600.
It has been proven that it requires less water to wash the layers of water to produce disposable diapers. In addition, we dry coatings on a dryer, which saves electricity by not using the dryer.
I think the choice of nappies is economical and good for the environment. In addition, it provides a livelihood for local SMEs in Quebec that are all excellent products. It is clear that it requires an effort, or do a load every 2 days and bring home dirty diapers when you are visiting ... After 6 months of use, we are satisfied with the product, never had a little rash Rash and we found a nursery who agrees to use our cloth diapers.
PS: A layer 235 replaces washable diapers!
