Washing at Home

Real Nappies are very convenient; they can be washed in your washing machine at 60oC with non-bio powder. There is no need to boil wash.
Wraps can be washed at 40oC
Using A-rated appliances can reduce energy and water consumption.
You do not necessarily need to wash the nappies every day. Every two or three days is enough. They can be stored in a nappy bucket until there is enough nappies for a full wash load.
Minimise tumble-drying. Nappy life is prolonged if you line dry them and its better for our environment.
Flushable nappy liners can be purchased; this makes using Real Nappies even easier.
Use half the amount of soap powder as you would use with your normal clothes. Your nappies will still be as clean.
Don’t use fabric conditioners, these make the nappies less absorbent
Should any stains appear on your nappies, just hang them out on your washing line in the sunshine and the sun should gently bleach those stains away.
Use Real Nappies for more than one child
Don’t iron Real Nappies
