The Best Eco-Friendly Diapers
I’m a nerd, so you guessed it! I put together this handy chart to help you understand this complex topic. It compares the cost versus sustainability of each diaper brand on this list! If you want to sum up this eco-friendly diaper guide into one picture, here it is!
Bambo and DYPER are the most eco-friendly diapers. Surprisingly, they are not the most expensive! They are in the middle of the pack.
Bambo diapers are 95% naturally sourced. They are manufactured in an eco-friendly way that reduces the use of chemicals.
DYPER diapers are 65% biodegradable, can be composted, and are carbon neutral.
The most budget-friendly sustainable diaper brand is Earth + Eden. They are produced in a zero waste-to-landfill facility.

Babyganics focuses on skin-friendly diapers free of allergens and irritants. They do not make any claims about environmental friendliness or sustainability. They’re available in many major US stores and are manufactured in North America.

Eco Friendly Diaper Definitions
Many brands describe just how eco-conscious their diapers are. But what do these terms and buzzwords actually mean?
Bamboo
Bamboo is often touted as more sustainable than crops like cotton. This comes up a lot when we talk about fabrics or the absorbent parts of diapers.
Part of this is true. Cotton requires a lot of land, water, fertilizer and pesticides to grow successfully. And bamboo does grow quickly without irrigation, fertilizer, or pesticides.
But it takes significantly more energy to turn bamboo fiber into fabric than cotton. And much of the world’s bamboo is grown in China. That means there is very little information on if it’s grown in a sustainable way.
Also see viscose section below.
Bio-based
Bio-based products come from renewable materials like plants. They are often used in place of petroleum-based materials.
Biodegradable
Biodegradable products break down and decompose over time.
But this term can be misleading when it comes to disposable diapers. Some companies may use the word biodegradable. But they might not mention how much of the product is biodegradable. Look for brands that have a biodegradable certification or more details.
For example, DYPER has third party certifications that their diapers are 65% biodegradable.
Carbon neutral, carbon offsets
Some diapers claim to be carbon neutral. It takes energy to make stuff, including diapers. And carbon dioxide is generated in the process.
A carbon neutral product does something to make up for, or offset that carbon dioxide. That’s where we get the term carbon offset. Usually this means a certain number of trees are planted.
Compostable
Some diaper brands claim their products are compostable. This means that the diaper can be broken down and used as plant fertilizer.
Take this claim with a grain of salt. Most health agencies recommend not composting diapers at home for safety reasons. Since diapers contain poop, composting them can potentially breed harmful bacteria if it isn’t done correctly.
Some brands like DYPER let you return the dirty diapers to the manufacturer. Then, they can be composted safely in an industrial scale process.
Chlorine-free pulp
Most of the diapers on this list use chlorine free pulp in the absorbent core of their diapers. What does this mean?
To turn pulpy wood fibers into a diaper core, the wood pulp must be bleached. There are lots of ways to do this. The two that are important for eco friendly diapers are:
Elemental chlorine free processing. It doesn’t use chlorine gas, so no dioxins or carcinogens are generated.
And then there’s the more eco-friendly totally chlorine free processing. It doesn’t use any type of chlorine for bleaching. [Source: Wikipedia]
Naturally resourced ingredients
See bio-based section above.
Oil-based materials
Oil-based materials are typically plastics that are made using oil byproducts. This is in contrast to bio-based materials (see above),
It is possible to make plant-based plastics, like viscose (see below), and PLA. These are used in some types of eco friendly diapers.
Plant derived materials
Plant-derived materials is a tricky phrase. Derived means that some sort of processing is used to turn the plant into something else.
Renewable materials
Renewable materials, similar to bio-based materials, can be grown or generated again. Plants and trees are the most common renewable materials.
Viscose
Viscose is a synthetic and natural fabric. Bamboo is made of cellulose fibers. Those fibers go through extensive chemical processing to become a fabric. It’s also known as rayon or artificial silk.
When we’re talking about disposable diapers, viscose usually refers to bamboo-based fabric.
See bamboo section above.
Zero waste to landfill
Zero waste to landfill is an impressive certification. It means that any waste generated at a factory doesn’t go into a landfill.
That’s right, no trash is generated by the factory. Everything from garbage to scrap products to leftover raw materials do not end up in a landfill.
The waste can be recycled, converted into fuel, or reused.
Eco-Friendly Certifications and Projects
Many eco-conscious brands have certifications or work on larger sustainability projects. We’ll dig into the details on those here
Ecocert Cosmos
Ecocert Cosmos, the first certification body for natural and certified organic cosmetics, ensures that products meet high environmentally friendly standards, straight from ingredients to packaging. Only products with a minimum of 95% naturally sourced ingredients by weight are eligible for certification.
Source – Bambo Nature USA
Bambo diapers are certified by Ecocert Cosmos.
Eden Reforestation Project
The Eden Reforestation Project is a nonprofit organization. They employ local people to plant trees. They reforest impoverished areas like
- Nepal
- Honduras
- Madagascar
- Haiti
- Indonesia
- Kenya
- Mozambique
- Nicaragua.
You can learn more on their website here.
Purchasing Andy Pandy diapers supports the Eden Reforestation Project. Two trees are planted for each item purchased from Andy Pandy.
Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and FSC- certified wood pulp
The Forest Stewardship Council certifies that wood used in products is sustainably sourced. And that it’s not harvested illegally or from protected forests. They have three different labels you might see on your diaper’s packaging.
- FSC 100%: All the materials are sourced from sustainable forests. This is the FSC’S highest mark of distinction.
- FSC RECYCLED: All the materials with this label are made with 100% recycled content. Recycled materials protect forests since no new wood must be harvested.
- FSC MIX: These products use a mixture of sustainable, recycled, and controlled wood. Controlled wood is not from FSC certified forests. But it is verified not to be illegally harvested.
You can find more information on the FSC’s website here.
Nordic Swan Ecolabel
The Nordic Swan Ecolabel is an extremely stringent licensing system. It looks at a company’s environmental, quality, and health impacts. They set strict environmental requirements and restrict usage of certain chemicals.
What does this mean for diapers? They have a 98 page list of requirements for sanitary products, like diapers. It goes into extraordinary details on what exactly is required.
To summarize it in less than 98 pages:
All components of the diaper must be manufactured without harmful chemicals. And as much of the diaper must be made of recycled materials. Plus, the product must perform similarly to “regular” products. That is to say, a certified diaper can’t leak, or only absorb a little bit of urine.
You can read more on Nordic Swan’s website here.
TÜV Austria bio-based
TUV Austria certifies products based on “how much renewable raw material” is used to make them. Products receive between 1 and 4 stars, based on how much bio-based material they contain.
You can read more on TUV Austria’s website here.
USDA Certified Biobased Product
The USDA Certified Biobased Product label guides consumers. It certifies that the USDA verified the amount of renewable ingredients.
You can read more on the USDA website here.
