Sustainability
Proof, not performance.
We don’t shout about sustainability because we don’t need to — it’s the floor we built on, not the story we’re selling. Here’s what that looks like, in plain English.
Material
Bamboo + pulp
Inner layers
Plant-based
Packaging
Kraft
Plastic vs. conventional
−80%
Decomposition
3–5 yrs
Forest certification
FSC
Bamboo
The fastest-growing plant we know.
Bamboo regrows up to a metre a day. It needs no pesticides, little water, and the same root system keeps producing for decades. It’s soft on skin, naturally antibacterial, and gentle on land.
Our bamboo is FSC-certified and processed without chlorine. The brushed top sheet that touches your baby is unbleached, undyed, and unfussed.
End of life
Gone in years, not centuries.
A conventional nappy takes around 500 years to decompose. Born Bare nappies break down in three to five — with around 80% less plastic in the build to begin with.
We’re honest about what we can’t do yet: home- composting a nappy isn’t something we recommend. Our job is to make the best version available today, and to keep moving toward the version that ends in soil.
The version they inherit.
Better for them now. Lighter on the world they’ll grow up into. That’s the whole calculation.
