Approved Laundry DetergentUpdated 2 days ago

Choosing a cloth diaper safe laundry detergent:

It is essential to choose a laundry detergent formulated with adequate surfactants and enzymes in order to properly clean human waste from your baby's cloth diapers. Choosing a detergent that lacks these important ingredients may lead to odor, leaks and even diaper rashes.

When selecting a detergent for cloth diapers, look for these features:

  • Enzyme blend: Ensure the detergent lists at least two enzymes, such as protease and lipase, for comprehensive stain removal.
  • Balanced surfactants: A mix of anionic and nonionic surfactants provides optimal cleaning and rinsing.
  • Free of fabric softeners: These additives can cause build-up and reduce absorbency.

Using a detergent with both enzymes and surfactants is the best way to keep cloth diapers clean, fresh, and long-lasting. This combination ensures stains and residues are broken down and washed away, protecting your baby’s skin and your investment in reusable diapers
