About this deal

That said, not all ingredients in baby wipes are good ingredients, which is why parents need to pay attention. Common Baby Wipes Ingredients They are all marketed as fully flushable but many also advise that to maintain a healthy sewer system, it is best to only flush one or two wipes at a time. Why Have They Become So Popular? Many brands now offer these kinds of wipes from ones aimed specifically at children like Kandoo to those specifically marketed towards men like DUDEs.

Now that you know some of the greenest eco-friendly baby brands available, it’s also important to know about greenwashing. The baby wipes market in the UK is awash with green buzzwords, many of them without substantiation. Here are some of the most common terms to be wary of: Flushable More promisingly, some companies use wood pulp exclusively. That means the wipes can biodegrade over time, and won’t fill our landfills for years to come. For the most part, the safest baby wipes included in this list use a range of botanicals for this function.

Lovell says the public needs more education about what can go down the toilet. "People often don't realise their toilet is not a rubbish bin. Just because it goes around the S bend doesn't mean 'out of sight out of mind'." All of the ingredients in Eco Pea’s baby wipes are rated either 1, 2, or 3 for safety on a scale of 1 to 10 in the EWG Skin Deep Database (1 is the best rating, 2 is the worst). When you take into account the eco-friendliness of these wipes, it’s an easy choice to put them near the top of my list! And therein lies the rub. Yup – commercial grapefruit seed extract isn’t typically “pure”– it contains chemical preservatives.

What I do know is the company uses a plant-based formulation made of 99% plant-derived extracts, and it’s hypoallergenic too, making them suitable for children with eczema and sensitive skin. Some chemicals are of concern because of the manufacturing, processing treatment processes used that go hand in hand with the chemicals.

Polysorbate 20, Ceteareth-20, and PEG-75 Lanolin are examples of these chemicals. They aren’t used in any of the wipes on this list at the time of research and writing. Best Non-Toxic Baby Wipes Polypropylene is a type of plastic, meaning these types aren’t exactly good news when it comes to the environment. We put 12 brands of wipes (11 of which were labelled as flushable and one brand that was labelled "do not flush") into the agitator along with 4-ply toilet paper, and ran the device for six hours. The wipes market, and the uses for wipes, has exploded. A stroll down any supermarket aisle now reveals wet wipes for make-up removal, toddlers' noses, floor cleaning, toilet cleaning, toilet training and even (wait for it...) adult bums – promising to leave users "extra clean and fresh".
