Product Description
gDiapers Plastic-free, Flushable refills Not cloth. Not disposable. The new earth-friendly hybrid diaper you can flush, compost or toss. Use with gDiapers lsquo;little grsquo; pants, available in gDiapers Starter Kit. gDiapers consist of a washable, breathable cloth outer pant--a lsquo;little grsquo;--and a plastic-free refill you can flush, compost or toss. gDiapers refills come in two sizes: the small refills fit the small 'little g' pants, while the medium/large refills fit into both the medium and large 'little g's'. gDiaper's plastic-free flushables have no elemental chlorine, no perfumes, no smell, no garbage, and no guilt. gDiapers flushable refills are plastic free. They contain super-absorbing lock away cells (SAP) for high absorbency both day and night. The outer material is made of all natural fibers and has a stay dry feel. Refills can be flushed, composted (wet ones only) or thrown away. Getting started with gDiapersBegin by ordering a Starter Kit. It has everything you need to try gDiapers: 2 pairs of 'little g' pants (golden orange and genuine vanilla bean), and 10 plastic-free flushable refills. Why are gDiapers good for the planet?No landfill required. 50 million disposable diapers enter the landfill every day, where they sit for up to 500 years. gDiapers are plastic-free, so they break down in 50-150 days. gDiapers are cradle to cradle certified which means that everything that goes into making the refill is reabsorbed by the planet in a neutral or helpful way. Itrsquo;s very cool. Naturally, best for your baby.gDiapers are breathable. Plastic-free flushable refills keep babies dry and happy, so theyrsquo;re less likely to get diaper rash. Features flushable no elemental chlorine no plastic no perfumes no inks or dyes no latex no garbage, no guilt. Use with gDiapers lsquo;little grsquo; pants (available in gDiapers Starter Kit.) Snug, easy, non-bulky natural fit. Soft velcro closures around the back. More stretch in the waist and legs fits all

Amazon.com 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.

gDiapers offer:
  • Flushable, decomposable diapers that offer an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional disposables
  • Breathable, non-plastic diapering system that keeps baby's skin healthier
  • Decomposable liners can be composted
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.

4 out of 5 stars 5 stars for all prior shipments...but   October 23, 2009
Paty Kay (Chicago Area)
I have ordered a few cases of these and they are great! This last case was not as good as the others. They were not as absorbant and I had some break apart getting the clear gel beads all over my son (ugh, that's what I hated about Huggies with my first (now 7). I'm going to order one more case to see if they are making them different now or if I just got a dud last time, then I'll try gCloth.


1 out of 5 stars Shipping to Alaska???   October 19, 2009

Please ship to Alaska! It is ridiculous that gDiapers can't be shipped to Alaska. If you're willing to ship to Florida from Oregon, then you should be willing to ship to Alaska from Oregon!


5 out of 5 stars luv gdiapers!   October 14, 2009
Jennifer Schwisow (GA)
I have been using gdiapers for the last 9 months and love them. I have a 2 kids in them, a 2 yr old boy and 1 yr old girl. They take a few days to get used to, but once you get the hang of it you will never want to use a disgusting disposable again. It's so easy to tear, swish and flush the insert. You can even compost the wet ones if you're into composting. And you no longer have to live with the guilt of A)putting a toxic filled plastic disposable on your child and B)filling up our landfills with human waste filled disposables that take 100's of years to decompose! Yea gdiapers!!


5 out of 5 stars GREAT ALTERNATIVE TO CLOTH DIAPERS!   October 13, 2009
DABLACKMAESTRO (BOSTON, MA)
We have been using gDiapers since our son was born in July 2008. These diapers are super absorbent and seem to last longer than regular diapers. We also noticed that he's had fewer rashes when wearing gDiapers versus regular diapers. Besides, you can get the shells in funky stylish colors. Yes, disposal can be messy (not as messy as cloth diapers), but saving the planet for our little one is well worth it.


5 out of 5 stars I love gDiapers!!!!   October 8, 2009
B. Noble
We exclusively use gDiapers for our 3 month old baby boy and we absolutely love them. They are so cute and comfy for our little guy and they are GOOD for the environment. I personally beleive that all diapers should have to be made disposable or biodegradable...there is no excuse!!
