Do your baby wipes contain plastic?
A BURN TEST REVEALS THE TRUTH!
When deciding which baby wipes you want to use for your family, always check the ingredients, and not just the ingredients in the liquid, you will want to know what the cloth is made of too! Terra Baby Wipes packaging clearly states all of the ingredients we use for the cloth AND the liquid—and you can easily read them all!
The cloth we use for our wipes is made of 100% Biodegradable FSC Certified Bamboo Fiber, NOT Bamboo from Viscose. The liquid is made with 99.7% Pure New Zealand Purified Water and Hydrolyzed Soy Protein. Our Kiwifruit Wipes also have Kiwifruit Extract and our Manuka Honey Wipes have Organic New Zealand Manuka Honey.
Lots of baby wipes brands contain plastic in the cloth they use! One of the best ways to test if a wipe contains plastic is a burn test.* When burned, a baby wipe that uses a plastic-based cloth will release a noxious black smoke of dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls (BCP) along with other toxic particles. A natural fiber will mostly release carbon and water.
*This test was conducted under controlled conditions and we do not recommend you try this yourself.
