gDiapers loves the Earth.

For the last 40 years there have been but two choices in diapers. Cloth or disposable. That’s it. Now gDiapers offers a third option. 100% biodegradable*, flushable diapers. gDiapers puts waste where it belongs, in the toilet. Not the landfill.

gDiapers have no elemental chlorine, no perfumes, no smell, no garbage and no guilt. In fact, our gRefills are so gentle on the Earth you can even garden compost the wet ones in one compost cycle, approximately 50 – 150 days. Just think of the standing ovation you’ll get from the planet.

Leave less of yourself behind.

While nothing truly biodegrades in a landfill, gDiapers plastic-free refills give you several disposal options that no other diaper offers. You can flush, compost, or toss them. Flush and you're putting poop where it belongs. Throw the wet ones in your garden compost and in 50 – 150 days you've turned a wet diaper into a soil amendment. You're actually giving something back to the planet and reducing your family's footprint. Even throwing gRefills away isn’t the end of the world. After all, less petroleum went into the production of gRefills, so tossing is ok, too. All we ask is that you put the poop in the toilet first.

Cradle to Cradle.

cradle to cradle gDiapers are designed using the Cradle to Cradle** design principles of Bill McDonough and his firm MBDC. That means everything that goes into our gRefills gets re-absorbed back into the eco-system in a neutral or beneficial way. So you are turning waste into a resource. At the same time, you are putting poop in the toilet, where it belongs.

We appreciate there is a lot of information in this section, but we want to make sure that parents who are concerned about the earth feel their questions and concerns are answered, and backed up with independent scientific research. For us, it is all about being Fair Dinkum. You can also feel free to contact us…we love talking diapers!

*Certified 100% biodegradable per ASTM standards in commercially managed and home composts.
**Cradle to Cradle CertifiedCM is a certification mark of MBDC.

Environmentally Friendly Diapers

"I just started using gDiapers and I absolutley love them! My 7 month old daughter, Adyson seems very comfortable in them and I am happy knowing that it is an environmentally friendly product that will not be sitting in a landfill in hundreds of years from now. I must admit, I still get a little giggly when I swish and flush! The outer pant is so cute too!"
