Nappy Boosters and Inserts
Reusable nappy boosters are used for adding extra absorbency to your reusable nappy. Nappy boosters are often made from microfibre, cotton, bamboo or hemp.
-
Microfibre is quick to absorb but has least absorbency - which make them good for babies who are prone to flooding nappies, and also they dry quickly. Just note that microfibre is not a natural fibre like the others.
-
Cotton is also quick to absorb, but holds a little more than mircofibre.
-
Bamboo is the middle ground - average to absorb but high levels of absorbency.
-
Hemp is the most thirsty material of the 3. But the trade of is that it doesn't absorb as quickly.
Whats the difference between a nappy booster and nappy insert?
Generally an insert is what already comes with the nappy when purchased, where as a nappy booster is something that is added extra to this.
