Switch to real nappies

Published: 17 Nov 2021

Did you know, in Wales each year, we send around 250 million disposable nappies to landfill or incineration?

Dirty nappies in a bin

Or that it takes 1,500 litres of crude oil to produce enough single use nappies to last from birth to 2.5 years?

This nice little video helps explain things a bit more. 

If you or someone you know are awaiting a new bundle of joy and are thinking about nappies then how about giving real nappies a go?

There are many different types and different ones will suit different babies but you can seriously cut down on your waste and plastic use by switching to reusables.  

For more ideas on what you can do on waste issues do have a look at our Zero Waste section.
