LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, Jan 17, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) –A partnership between gNappies and retail giant Amazon means that inaddition to the full hybrid nappy range being available on thegNappies website, it is also available at – allowingparents and parents-to-be to add gNappies items to their Amazon ‘wishlist’, providing friends and family with an easy way of buying apractical gift.
gNappies, the inventors of the hybrid nappy category which combinesreusable and disposable nappies, has collaborated with Amazon toprovide this option so that the cost of choosing a non-disposablenappy option can be shared among gift buyers. Company co-founder KimGraham-Nye said:
“Amazon is used by pretty much everyone and the ‘wish list’ hasbecome universal, providing a great method for gift buying to ensureyou buy a gift that the recipient actually wants, in such aconvenient way. To have gNappies products on Amazon means that therange is more accessible than ever before and parents can stipulateexactly what they want and need from the gNappies range – negatingthe possibility of receiving duplicate items, or a plethora of babyproducts they just don’t want or need.”
Earth-friendly gNappies is the only 100 per cent certifiedbiodegradable hybrid nappy. The system comprises washable cloth nappypants and either 100 per cent biodegradable gRefills or washablegCloth. gRefills decompose in 50 – 100 days in a home compost and canalso be disposed of in domestic waste. A plastic disposable nappytakes up to 500 years to decompose in landfill.
Kim Graham-Nye co-founded the company with her husband Jason, and wasjust named one Fortune Magazine Top 10 Women Entrepreneurs. Theycreated gDiapers after discovering shocking statistics aboutdisposable nappies and their impact on the environment; disposablenappies account for a third of landfill although only five per centof the population use them. Around 11 million enter UK landfill everyday.
Kim added: “Parents these days are much more eco-aware and willing toconsider ways in which they can reduce their carbon footprint. Thosewho are interested in eco-friendly nappies may be interested in thegNappies system, which offers more flexibility with the cloth andbiodegradable options. Parents can choose one or the other or acombination of the two.”
gNappies are available in all colours, patterns and sizes, includinggBundles to get parents started, at and the gNappieswebsite gnappies.co.uk .
