gDiapers are a hybrid diaper, so users can choose to use either a cloth insert or a disposable insert that can be flushed or composted.
Design
Being a variation of a diaper, the gDiaper design consists of 92% cotton/8% spandex machine-washable outer "gPants," a machine-washable, water-resistant snap-in pouch, and an absorbent inner pad. For absorbency either reusable cloth or a flushable, compostable Disposable Insert can be used. The disposable insert contents include Chlorine-free farmed tree fluff pulp and sodium polyacrylate. When ready to dispose of the disposable insert, the user tears along the perforation to allow the fluff mixture contents to be emptied into a toilet before dropping in the outer teabag-like containment, stirs the contents to encourage it to break up, then flushes the insert. The wet-only Disposable Inserts can alternatively be home composted; inserts with fecal material should be flushed or disposed of through standard waste collection. The outer pant features back closure to preventinfants and toddlers from removing the diaper themselves. gDiapers gPants are available in a variety of colors and limited-edition prints, some with coordinating tops. gDiapers can also be used with a cloth diaper insert, instead of the disposable insert. The company offers their own reusable cloth insert, though many other options from various sources can be used. gDiapers also offers flushable liners called Cloth Liners to lay on top of cloth diaper inserts, facilitating feces disposal. In addition to the gPants diaper covers, flushable Disposable Inserts, Cloth Inserts, and Cloth Liners, the expanded product line now includes disposable wipes. Replacement snap-in pouches are available separately in 6-packs. Bundled packs of gPants and Disposable Inserts are available through the manufacturer and select retailers in the United States and Canada.
