Stinky Couture™ was one of the first cloth diaper designers to be introduced to what we refer to as the new blue superhero….ZORB™.

ZORB™ is a specialty textile designed to improve the performance of cloth diapers and accessory products. ZORB™ absorbs 10x it’s weight in less than half a second — that’s 20x faster than cotton, bamboo or hemp. ZORB™ has incredible holding power too, a single layer holds up to three times the moisture of the best absorbing knits.

Initially we began testing ZORB™ with a local group of parents. We were so very impressed with the results that we will be incorporating the new blue superhero in all Stinky Couture™ soakers and doublers unless specifically requested otherwise. We will be sandwiching ZORB™ in between layers of Organic Cotton Bamboo Fleece and/or Bamboo Velour (Organic 70% Bamboo / 30%). ZORB™ is soft, rinses easily and dries extremely quickly as well being non-toxic and non-allergenic. Though we recognize that ZORB™ is made from a proprietary blend of natural and man-made fibers, the benefits we feel are worthwhile. It is our belief that the energy savings gained by less wash cycles and quicker drying times make this a win-win for parents and the planet.
