Terry Nappies & Flats

When someone asks "what is a cloth nappy', the traditional terry toweling nappy fastened with nappy pins and a plastic cover may be the image that comes to mind, particularly for the older generations. But modern cloth nappies have come a long way, and whilst the traditional flat nappy still has a firm place in the nappy market, it is often used in an upgraded way. Metal pins have been replaced with safe nappy grippers, and pull on plastic pants have been upgraded to comfortable nappy covers.

Flat nappies such as terry squares and prefold nappies are known for their high absorbency and many parents opt for these choices at night time.
