Why Plastic-Free Wipes Belong in Your Changing Bag
Why Plastic-Free Wipes Belong in Your Changing Bag
Baby wipes have become one of those everyday essentials that parents reach for without thinking. They're in the changing bag, beside the changing table, in the car and often scattered around the house.
But when something is used this often, it's worth asking what it's actually made from.
Not all wipes are created equal
Many conventional wipes contain plastic-based fibres. That can make them strong and durable, but it also means they can remain in the environment for an extremely long time after they're thrown away.
Moss takes a different approach.
Our wipes are made using plant-based bamboo and are designed to break down naturally in just 133 days.
99% purified water
When something is going on your baby's skin, simpler can be better.
Moss wipes contain 99% purified water with a touch of soothing chamomile. There is no need for a long list of unnecessary ingredients.
The result is a wipe designed to be gentle enough for everyday use while still being strong enough to handle the messier moments of parenthood.
One wipe can do more
A wipe shouldn't fall apart halfway through a change.
Moss wipes are thicker and more absorbent, allowing one wipe to do more of the work. In parent testing, the wipes were widely praised for being stronger, softer and gentler than the brands parents usually used.
That means fewer wipes reaching for the bin during every change.
Designed for one-handed parenting
Anyone who has changed a wriggling baby knows that you don't always have two free hands.
That's why Moss wipes feature an easy one-hand pull dispenser. One hand can hold your baby while the other reaches for a wipe.
It's a small design choice, but small improvements can make everyday parenting feel significantly easier.
Soft enough for delicate skin
Baby wipes aren't only used for bottoms. Parents use them on hands, faces, feet and all the unexpected places that somehow end up covered in food.
Moss wipes are designed to be soft enough for a newborn's face while remaining strong enough to resist tearing during a change.
Better for today, better for tomorrow
The changing table can be a busy place. But every wipe eventually leaves it and enters the waste stream.
Choosing a bamboo wipe means choosing a plant-based material designed to return to nature far sooner than plastic alternatives.
Moss wipes break down in approximately 133 days.
It's one small choice, repeated every day, that can make a meaningful difference over time.
Pure, practical and considered
The idea behind Moss Wipes is simple: make a wipe that parents genuinely enjoy using, without relying on plastic or unnecessary ingredients.
Soft skin. Strong performance. Simple ingredients. Less plastic.
That's what we believe a modern baby wipe should be.
