You know how sometimes you get a kitten and you name it Sprinkles, only to later look at the kitten and think “huh, she’s a much better Moo Moo.” So you change her name. But she’s still the same cute kitty as ever.
Right. We did that. You’ll notice that some of our products look a little different and even have new names. So here’s your roadmap to make sense of it all!
say hello to the family.
disposable inserts
Previously known as gRefills. Use disposable inserts inside gPants for a biodegradable* disposable diaper that goes easy on the planet.
*Disposable inserts are biodegradable in home composts per ASTM standards by a third party independent lab (wet ones only please). Nothing truly biodegrades in a landfill. But gDiapers give you 3 options for disposal. Flush, compost or toss. The choice is yours.
cloth inserts
Previously known as gCloth. That was easy. Use cloth inserts inside gPants for a trim-fitting reusable diaper option.
newborn bundle
Previously known as the gBaby bundle. The newborn bundle has all you need to get started using gDiapers from day one.
gWipes
Previously known as … gWipes. See? We’re not changing EVERYTHING. gWipes are a customer favorite. Gentle on baby, gentle on the earth, and good for tackling whatever mess your baby makes.

I like the new names! It’s a lot clearer and there’s no mistaking what they are. When I was first buying the system and registering for it, it was confusing both for myself and for people looking at my registry.
I like the new names, too. More intuitive. I think it’s closer to what I was calling them anyway!
I like the new names. When we first started daycare I went in and said “this is a new kind of disposable diaper” and they have let us use them ever since (Aug 2009). We just started a new daycare this month and I said the same thing, and they are allowing us to use them as well. Both of these daycares have a “no cloth diaper” policy. It’s all about marketing sometimes – way to go G!
