Description
Brand new to the UK market (and at the moment, exclusive to The Flats Company) these stretchy hemp/bamboo 70cm squares handmade in Portugal are just beautiful.
Made of Hemp terry and Bamboo this unbleached fabric is super soft and smooth on one side and on the other has soft hemp terry loops which hooks easily on to nappy fasteners.
Composition: 67% bamboo viscose, 28% hemp, 5% stretch terry cloth fabric.
Size 70cm
One size fits most- A super slim nappy, could fit a newborn without being too bulky and fits my 2.5 year old with ease.
How to use
These can be fitted to baby with a nappy fastener such as a pin or nippa, cover with a waterproof wrap and make sure all the nappy is tucked inside the wrap to prevent leaks.
For extra absorbency add a booster inside the flat, or outside between the flat and the wrap to avoid compromising the fit of the fold.
Top with a fleece or disposable liner to keep baby dry and to simplify the disposal of solids (post weaning).
Remember, you can reuse your wraps 3-4 times by wiping them out with a wet cloth if they do not come in to contact with poo.
How to wash and dry
Pre-wash once before use on a short gentle wash (30/40 degrees) to remove manufacturing residue.
These flats are made from natural materials and will shrink up a little after several washes. When using brand new, natural fibre flats it takes 4-5 washes for the fabric to begin reaching peak absorbency because the natural oils in the fibres need to be removed.
Once in use, wash at 40-60 degrees. Do not use fabric conditioner.
Dry naturally if possible. Can be placed on radiators to speed drying.
Low tumble only.
