How to Wash
Step 1
Knock of soiled nappies into the toilet then rinse. Store in a dry pail this is a designated basket or buckets that allows airflow.
Step 2
Pre wash nappies every 1-2days on a warm short cycle with half a scoop of nappy friendly detergent. Pre washed nappies can be stored in a separate dry pail until you have enough nappies for a main cycle.
Step 3
Main wash every 2-3 days on a long 60° cycle with a full scoop of nappy friendly detergent.
Step 4
Line dry shells and inserts out of direct sunlight. Inserts can be machine dried on a low temperature.
Tips
We do not recommend soaking or bleaching the shells as this can damage the waterproof lining.
Do not exceed 60° when washing nappies
Use a nappy friendly detergent. Make sure it contains the following
SURFACTANTS – this is the ingredient that lifts soiling from fabrics and crucial for washing cloth nappies.
ENZYMES – enzymes help remove stains, prevents piling and maintains effective procedures throughout the wash cycle. Different enzymes target different purposes in your washing cycle so ideally a blend of enzymes is what you’re looking for the perfect detergent.
Detergents that we recommend
Supermarkets - OMO/PERSIL or BIOZET
Natural - KIN KIN LIQUID or BCLEAN BABY
Please note inserts will reach their full absorbency after 7-8 washes, this time frame can be reduced by soaking inserts over night before their first wash.
