The Manufacture of Moltex Öko

The manufacture of traditional disposables results in chemical waste polluting water, directly harming wildlife and entering the food chain. Moltex Öko nappies do not contain these unnecessary products and are therefore significantly reducing damage to the environment.

The nappies are manufactured in Germany (“Öko” means “Eco” in German) with no antioxidants, lotions, dyes or perfumes - all of which are unnecessary and can be harmful to your baby's sensitive skin.

Moltex Öko are the only disposable nappies available in the UK with an unbleached cellulose core. Bleaching has been proven to create a known human carcinogen - dioxin - which you wouldn't want next to your baby's delicate and absorbent skin. Moltex Öko nappies are not bleached which dramatically reduces any risk of cancer. Dioxin pollution is one of the world's most serious environmental problems.

Take a look at the range of Natracare Feminine Hygiene products that are also chlorine free.

Conventional disposables generally have polyethylene for the plastic outer waterproof layer and polypropylene for the inner liner. As a disposable product this is a waste of environmental resources.

Moltex Öko disposables use a special 100% biodegradable protective film for the backsheet.

The most environmentally friendly way of disposing of Moltex Öko nappies is to compost them, earthworm composting (“vermicomposting”) being the most efficient method. Earthworms rapidly penetrate and breakdown the nappy, excreting it as worm castings, which in turn are broken down by microbes. The resulting vermicompost can be used in your garden to great effect.

Composting the nappies does take time and effort, though. We recommend putting the nappy into the compost opened up and preferably torn in two and the compost needs to be regularly turned. Putting the nappy into compost rolled up and in a nappy sack will make the process take much longer (just as you would tear up or shred a newspaper).
