Our Experience

Product Origins

Whenever possible, we source our fabrics from the USA.  This not only ensures us that the fabric is manufactured without any possible contaminants that may prove harmful to infants, but we have also found that the quality is more consistent and surpasses that of its imported counterparts.  Using US-made fabrics also helps keep the textile manufacturing industry alive in the US. 

The cotton used to make our organic cotton fabrics is sourced from the US as much as possible.  When supply is low, it is sourced from Turkey.  But no matter where the cotton comes from , the fabric is still milled in the US.

The microfleece we use has a special weave that makes it 95% less susceptible to detergent build-up that causes repelling and leaking issues to cloth diapers made with a polyester wicking layer.  It is 3 times more expensive than imported microfleece or suedecloth, but performance is our main priority and is something we feel must not be compromised.

Even the polyester knit used to make our laminated fabrics are all made in the US.  We design most of our prints and have them printed at a local fabric printing facility that strives to maintain a sustainable and environmentally-friendly operation by using aqueous dyes instead of oil-based dyes, and reusing and recycling majority of the raw materials used in their operation.

We use latex-free elastics exclusively on all our diapering products.  Again, this type of elastic costs 3 times more than your typical polybraid or knitted elastic, but using latex-free elastic ensures us that the possibility of babies getting an allergic reaction with sensitivity to latex is greatly reduced, if not eliminated.  And just like most of the fabrics we use, our latex-free elastic are made in the USA as well.
