Ämne: Compostable= pee diapers can go in yardwaste?
Hello! I’m a big fan and waiting for your Ambassador program to launch in
the USA. In the meantime, is it safe to say that the pee diapers can go in
our yard waste bins? (In Seattle, every other week the city picks up a big
where we can put compost/yardwaste) Tx ML

Dear customer,
Thank you for your e-mail concerning our nappies.
It is not recommended to put the nappies in the compost bin. The reason is
that human faeces contain bacteria that will not be destroyed and that can
contaminate people and water. The rate of degrading depends on the soil,
temperature, humidity, etc.
Our nappies consist of renewable raw materials to 60%, not 100%. Renewable
raw materials come from plants and trees. When the raw materials are burned
the carbon dioxide is released to be consumed by other plants or trees. In
this way you don’t add more carbon dioxide to the air, which you do by
burning petroleum-based products. Even during the production phase, we use
less petroleum-based products than regular disposable nappies. By using
Nature babycare compared to these other disposable nappies you reduce the
green house effect.
If you have any more enquiries do not hesitate to contact us.
