Hemp Inserts
Our hemp inserts are a 55% hemp /45% cotton mix, providing superior absorption, strength, durability, breathe-ability, and softness.
Hemp fabrics absorb twice as much as an equivalent weight and size of cotton only fabric and can absorb up to 20% its own weigh whilst still being dry to the touch (when compared with polyester which can absorb a maximum of 6%) therefore keeping baby's bum drier to the touch even when it is absolutely soaked.
Our inserts are made as 2 layers to allow quicker drying and flexibility of use as either double or triple folding to suit absorbency requirements and multiple size settings.
Pleae note with hemp, they achieve maximum absorbency after a few washes typicaly 5 - 6 washes. but lets be honest- nobody washes anything 5 times before using it, so whilst the first few times you use it you wonder what the hype is, after about 5 washes - the difference will show!
They come in 3 sizes with the small and medium inserts having snaps which can be fixed into the nappy covers to keep them in place or can be simply folded and laid in the cover without fixing it with the snaps. The large insert do not have any snaps as they can be wrapped around baby (up to 13 kg) and secured with a fastener or simply folded into the nappy cover.
Our hemp inserts can be used on their own, or as boosters with other insert types. These are ideal boosters for times when added absorbency is needed such as at night time or long car journeys. they offer such great flexibility, how you choose to use the hemp inserts is completely up to you.

What is it with all these snapping?!!
The snaps are mostly there to help keep things in place, should you wish not to use them, the inserts are still very functional, simply fold in half or thirds and place the snap free face touching baby's bum.
When folding in halves, you may want the blue snap caps tucked under the the front flap of the nappy cover
For triple fold: (Large hemp inserts Only)
Simply fold in thirds using the stitch lines as a guide. the large size does not have any snaps.
You may need to fold down the front a bit for it to fit to the Small and Medium settings of the One-Size (OS) nappy covers. An example of this is illustrated below.
You can tuck the folded down ends in to hold it in place. the folded ends should be placed to the front of the nappy where more absorbency is required.
If using with our bamboo inserts, they can be fixed together with or without the snaps. further information will be posted shortly.
For our prefolds they can be placed inside a pad fold or at the centre of the wrap fold.
If using our flap style AIO, the small insert fits nicely underneath the flap.
For our pocket style AIO, the small or medium inserts can be stuffed inside the pockets for added absorbency.
If wrap folding the large insert, other inserts may be placed a the center to improve the absorberncy at the central area.
