Non-Toxic Diapers for Newborns | Cuddle-Kin Plant-Based, Safest for New Skin

What "non-toxic" means for newborns
- Chlorine-free — no dioxin trace from bleached pulp
- Fragrance-free — synthetic perfume is a top contact-irritant
- Phthalate-free — no plasticizer endocrine disruptors
- Latex-free — common newborn allergen
- Plant-based core — no petroleum-based polymers against new skin
- OEKO-TEX 100 certified — third-party tested for harmful substances
Why it matters in the first 90 days
Newborn skin has a pH of ~6.5 (less acidic than adult ~5.5), thinner stratum corneum, and developing barrier function. Wet diapers are in skin-contact 10-12 hours/day. Trace chlorine bleach byproducts + synthetic fragrance accumulate against compromised skin = preventable diaper rash + (in eczema-prone babies) early-life sensitization.
