Why Chlorine Free Oxygen-Bleached Wood Pulp?    (nappies top)

Before disposables, mothers worked long and hard to keep their cloth nappies nice and white. 
They used chlorine bleaches and boiling water. 

Traditionally, nappies contained chlorine-bleached wood pulp. The use of chlorine caused
significant environmental damage, and attracted a lot of attention from Greenpeace and others.

The first Moltex Eco nappies contained unbleached wood pulp. The obvious off-white colour of the
nappy was unacceptable to many parents on aesthetic grounds, although others saw it as
a 'statement' that the nappy was clearly eco friendly, and not just an 'ordinary' nappy.

However, unbleached materials were made in small quantities, and so were more expensive. Also,
there was a need to make the Eco Nappy more visually appealing.

Moltex introduced oxygen bleached material to overcome objections. An added benefit was
an improvement in absorbency over the traditional unbleached material.

So, more parents found it easier to change to the Moltex Eco Nappy, and those who
did change, found the nappy to perform fantastically compared to ordinary nappies and
to other eco-friendly products.

The Moltex Eco Nappy continues to smell fresher for longer on the baby. Unlike some
ordinary nappies, a small amount of wetting does not make the Moltex Eco Nappy
smell horrible, so you don't change nappies as often, saving money and the environment.
