Product Description
The gDiapers diapering system is an innovative, convenient, and "green" alternative to traditional disposable diapers. gDiapers consist of a "little g" pants reusable, washable outer layer, which is fitted with an absorbent, fully decomposable refill. The gDiapers Flushable Refill pack for Medium and Large sizes includes 32 refills. They are for use with medium- or large-sized "little g" pants, which fit children 13 to 28 pounds and 26 to 36 pounds, respectively
Flushable, Decomposable Diapers
The gDiaper refills are completely decomposable. They're made from sustainably farmed wood fluff pulp, sodium polyacrylate (SAP), which provides absorbency, and cellulose rayon. And they can be flushed down the toilet, which has a couple of wonderful benefits. First, it eliminates the need to keep smelly diapers around in a diaper pail. Second, it keeps unnecessary waste out of the landfills. And finally, the entire contents of the diaper gets processed by sewage treatment plants, which return treated, completely sanitized solids to be converted into valuable fertilizer. It's recycling at its best!
If you're unable to flush the liners, they can still be thrown in the trash without guilt, since they will decompose in 50 to 150 days -- a much better turnaround than their plastic counterparts. And, if you're a gardener, you can simply throw the wet liners in your compost bin. (Note: for sanitary reasons, never put poopy diapers in the compost.)
As Easy As Traditional Disposables -- but Healthier
To use the gDiaper refills, simply fit the disposable refill into the "little g" pant's washable liner. Once the diaper is soiled, simply remove the refill from the liner and flush it.
The "little g pant" itself sports an adorable style and trim silhouette. With easy-to-use rear Velcro closures, it's just as easy to put on a baby as traditional disposable diapers -- no pins to deal with here. Plus, its breathable qualities help keep baby's skin healthier by minimizing diaper rash
Tips for Successful gDiaper Use
Some plumbing systems may have problems with the flushable liners, including systems with tree-infested pipes; non-standard plumbing systems, including grinders or house traps; and septic tanks, which require close monitoring to make sure the outflow is clear. It is recommended that only poopy diapers be put into septic systems, and wet ones be composted.
But even if your plumbing system won't accept the gDiaper flushables, you can always simply throw them in the trash where they'll quickly decompose, making a much more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional disposable diapers.
