There’s no doubt a baby creates a lot of waste. Baby wipes whilst being a mum staple, can really mount up and can leave you with a little eco-guilt. So what if we told you there’s now a baby wipe that is totally biodegradable in as little as 15 days?

Mum & You set about creating plastic-free, 100% biodegradable wipes so that mums everywhere could rest assured that today’s sticky mess won’t become a problem for tomorrow’s generation.

Made from plant-based fibres they’re strong enough to tackle the yuckiest nappy or stickiest face and still fully break down after use. In fact, tests show that they break down in landfill conditions in just 15 days – that’s faster than food waste! 

At Mum & You, products are designed by their team of mums, who want to make other mums lives easier.

Since launching in 2016, Mum & You wipes have been 100% biodegradable, plant based and plastic-free. The aim was to develop wipes that are strong enough to tackle the stickiest situations yet still break down after use. 

Mum & You baby wipes are made using sustainably sourced, naturally derived viscose - a special material made from the most renewable wood fibre on Earth.
Biodegradable wipes are so important because a baby can get through as many as 15,000 wipes during their lifetime. If these wipes are plastic based (as many are) then that’s a huge amount of waste added to our environment. Tests show that Mum & You wipes break down quickly after they are thrown away; in as little as 15 days plus they’re suitable for home composting too!

Mum & You understand how delicate and sensitive baby’s skin can be, so their wipes are 99.4% water making them suitable for use from birth as they are as gentle as cotton wool and water. Approved by dermatologists, they are hypoallergenic, unperfumed and safe for use on sensitive or eczema-prone skin.

Plus Mum & You are proud to be Leaping Bunny approved, certified Vegan and use PEFC certified sustainable fibres*
