Kinoa Shop is managing by a
mummy of two children, who tried 5 different brands and choose for her and for
you the best for babies, two kinds of Eco-friendly nappies:
- "FUZZI BUNZ",
washables nappies to stay at home and for the night
- "MOLTEX OKO",
eco-friendly disposable nappies (chlorine free, unbleached cellulose, 100%
biodegradable) to go out with baby.

Why use washable
nappies?
3 goods reasons
to start doing with the washables nappies:
Better
for your baby health:
Disposable diapers contain
traces of:
- Dioxin, an
extremely toxic by-product of the paper-bleaching process. It is a
carcinogenic chemical, listed by the EPA as the most toxic of all cancer-linked
chemicals.
- Tributyl-tin (TBT)
- a toxic pollutant known to cause hormonal problems in humans and animals.
- Sodium polyacrylate,
a type of super absorbent polymer (SAP), which becomes a gel-like substance
when wet. A similar substance had been used in super-absorbency tampons until
the early 1980s when it was revealed that the material increased the risk of
toxic shock syndrome.
-Parfum
- and the
conventional diapers increase scrotal temperature in boys wearing
disposable diapers, and that prolonged use of disposable diapers will blunt or
completely abolish the physiological testicular cooling mechanism important for
normal spermatogenesis.
Better
for your wallet:
We estimate that each baby
will need about 6,000 diapers during the first two years of life.
Better
for the environment:
- 5 billion diapers were sold and consumed in Europe
per year.
- No one knows how long it
takes for a disposable diaper to decompose, but it is estimated to be
about 250-500 years, long after
your children, grandchildren and great, great, great grandchildren will be
gone.
- Disposable diapers
generate 60 times more solid waste and use 20 times more raw
materials, like crude oil and wood pulp.
- Disposable diapers are the
third largest single consumer item in landfills, and represent about 4% of
solid waste. In a house with a child in diapers, disposables make
up 50% of household waste.
