Biodegradable Baby Wipes: Are They Better For Babies

Premise ===================================

The biggest concern about biodegradable baby wipes is environmental and how the product fairs in the least hazardous quotient compared to regular wipes. This study looks into the health advantages of these natural baby wipes over plain cloth.

Body ===================================

Many brands and eco-activists advocating biodegradable baby wipes put it as a "must have," as if anything else is a "must not have." But sometimes it takes a closer look.

Disposable baby wipes are preferred by busy parents over cloth and other traditional options because of how easy they are to use and maintain.

For a typical adult, it can be considered to pass over issues and effects of the environment and health equally. The foremost criterion for choosing a product for a baby is healthy. But, whether they are biodegradable or not, baby wipes can clog pipes and end up in landfills, producing pollution along the way.

A handful of brands in Europe are making the effort to merge convenience, health and sustainability which cater to mindful parents to shop for baby wipes with peace of mind.

Baby Wipes Manufacturing Process: Sustainability For Environment and Baby Skin

The need for totally dispersible, biodegradable, and plastic-free wet wipes has thrust eco-baby wipes manufacturers into the spotlight as a result of the growing threat of plastic pollution, sewage system obstructions, and stiffer requirements from the government and trade groups.

In the "wet-laid process," which is a step in the production of baby wipes, non-woven fibres are combined with water and other chemicals to create a paste, which is then rolled into flat sheets and dried to create long master rolls of fabric. This is the most crucial step for making a difference with the choice of chemicals and materials to make a truly sustainable and healthy product for the environment and the baby.

The Best Options for Eco Baby Wipes For Babies

While it is common for brands to feature their products as containing “natural” extracts like cucumber, aloe vera, or tea, most of the time this doesn’t make any difference for the baby's skin because they are in the form of chemicals and perfume. It is more about what the product doesn’t have, which makes more sense.

The Danish brand Bambo produces a range of eco-baby wipes under their quintessential “Nordic Swan Ecolabel'' and “Asthma Allergy Nordic Label” as a commitment to sustainability. What makes this product different is not the extracts that they “have” but the ones that they “don’t have”.

➔ Parabens

➔ Perfume

➔ Artificial Colour

➔ Synthetic Materials

It makes a big difference for parents that are willing to choose both biodegradable baby wipes that are good for their babies if they had the option. Because Bambo Nature always makes their ingredient list available, consumers may make informed decisions about how the goods are made and utilised.
