Blah Blah! All this talk about washable nappies are better than disposables. Maybe. Where is the promotion and talk about completely biodegradable nappies? What companies can be arsed to improve? Surely an environmentally friendly nappy that completely biodegrades (apart from tabs) is best. Find out at Spirit of Nature - Bambo Nature Nappies.

P.S. Use less carrier's and pressure shops to introduce biodegradable ones.

Umm, probably not though. You've still got the embodied energy from their manufacture, distribution etc..

What a charming sales pitch! They also do reusable as well

I still prefer the idea of washing and reusing than throwing away.

Anyway in the spririt of friedliness here's the blurb from the website:

Bambo Nature Disposable Nappies Ref: 1770
Eco Disposables from only 12p per nappy (using �1 OFF voucher), Nappies that don't cost the Earth!
Bambo Nature nappies have all the features of leading conventional disposables but are much kinder to your baby's skin and the environment, and from only 12p per nappy they are even kinder to your pocket!

Kinder to the skin
No optical brighteners or perfumes, lotions/moisturisers are used, meaning less risk of allergic reactions and rashes. Raw materials used to produce the nappy are certified free from harmful chemicals like MBT, DBT, TBT CL or Formaldehyde. Bambo Nature has been designed and tested by the manufacturer for skin friendliness.

Environmentally friendlier
Bambo Nature has been awarded the "NORDIC SWAN ECO LABEL", your guarantee that this product has less impact on the environment than conventional nappies. All materials used are approved by the Danish Environmental Protection Agency. The production process minimizes the consumption of energy and uses state-of-the-art techniques that save and recycle raw materials wherever possible.
The Danish manufaturer uses environmentally compatible fluff pulp from a controlled Scandinavian Forestry where more trees are planted than felled. The pulp use is oxygen- rather than chlorine-bleached, therefore having a considerable lower environmental impact.
The absorbent core in Bambo Nature nappies has a high percentage of starch - a natural absorber which is 100% biodegradable.

Kinder to your pocket
Being more competitively priced than other Eco-Brands, Bambo Nature nappies do not cost the earth in more ways than one. With our introductory �1 OFF voucher you can try the new Bambo Nature nappy from only 12p per nappy.

Bambo Nature is available in bags in 5 sizes:

Mini, 3-6Kg 6.5-13 lbs, 30 nappies
Midi, 5-10Kg, 11-22lbs, 56 nappies
Maxi, 8-18 Kg, 17.5-39.5lbs, 50 nappies
Maxi+, 12-22Kg, 26-48lbs, 46 nappies
Junior, 15-25Kg, 33-55lbs, 42 nappies
