Advantages: thinner , environmentally friendlier

Disadvantages: More info needed on the products used in manufacturing

We've just been shopping in Sainsburys and have come accross a new range of disposable nappies...
There called Nature boy & girl and they claim to be environmentally friendly...why?

well according to the pack ....
" the surface of each nappy is covered with a film, based on GM free 100% natural maize which lets your baby's skin stay dry and breathe naturally- not like the plastic surface of other nappies which look similar"
and they go on to say...

"Our nappies are easy to put on and thinner then most nappies without losing their power to absorb. They are so thin that they allow the freedom of movement your baby needs."
and..
"Nature boy & girl is made from 70% natural materials."

well when we got home and I have put my daughter in one and
The first thing you notice about them is the outer covering ,Unlike pampers or Huggies its 'plastic' feeling with no cotton on top of the plastic and yes they are thinner but the velcro tabs are quite thin too not unlike Pampers which I have to get used too.

At the moment Sainsburys have them on special we got a pack of Maxi (34's) for £4.89 .
This is the 1st time I've used anything other then Huggies (apart from half a day useing pampers before they wen't in the bin) so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
They do have a web site at WWW.naty.se but It may as well be written in chinese as its an overseas site (swedish I think)so its not much help.

Oh and it states that the packaging/wrapping is 100% biodegradable, and can be disposed of with other organic refuse.

my daughter was in her nappy all night as she sleeps for 13-14 hours at a time. And when she woke up this morning she was as dry as she would have been wearing a huggies nappy...

Im impressed I just wish I could find out more info on these nappies as there is no address or contact number on the pack and the web site is no
use so I don't know much about them only the blurb on the pack.

They may not be the SOLUTION to disposable nappies and the environmental damage they cause but I think its a step in the right direction and I for one will be using these from now on... we have had no leaks and they fit very nice infact because there thinner then your regular disposable the are more flexiable and allow baby to move more freely.

There worth a try honest
