Mama Bamboo nappies have a commendable set of eco and free-from credentials. They’re partly compostable, vegan and free from alcohol, preservatives and PVC, but does this make for a nappy that is quick to absorb liquid and protects against leaks? Read our nappy review to find out how they fared in our in-depth lab tests.

How we test disposable nappies and nappy pants

Absorption rate

Overall
Daily use
Night use

How we test absorption rate

We apply synthetic urine to the nappy and time how long it takes to fully absorb the fluid. We repeat this four times to measure the rate of absorption as the nappy fills up.

Protection against leakage

How we test protection against leakage

We apply synthetic urine to the nappy and record the amount of liquid that leaks out of the nappy. We repeat this four times to record leakage as the nappy fills up.

Holding wetness inside

How we test holding wetness inside

We place filter paper on top of a fully fluid-loaded nappy and weigh it down. We measure the amount of liquid absorbed by the filter paper to work out how well the nappy holds in fluid.
