More Euro-diaper info?

Hey,

for those of you nice enough to answer the diaper questions...

Where did you purchase these diapers? Did you ever purchase store brands made by Ontex (the company that makes Moltex)?

I think those are the only other questions he had. Thanks again, the info was actually really helpful to him since he has no other way of really getting valid feedback!

That better be the last time he makes fun of my journal!

It seems to be quite hard to find out which store brands (BrEng: own brands) are made by Ontex - they have a large chunk of the UK sanpro market, but the information on nappies is harder to find out. We buy Boots and Tesco own-brand (Boots is a drugstore chain; Tesco a supermarket) - I can find out that KimberleyClark make Boots' nappies, but nothing on Tesco (from quality and packaging similarity I'd say they're likely the same manufacturer, though). I have a feeling Sainsbury's own-brand might be Ontex, and if so, they also leaked for us! But we had a particularly fussy baby when it came to fit. :)

We use Sainsbury's and Boots ones, but no idea whether they are Ontex or not. Boots ones have changed recently, which might indicate a change in manufacturer.

I bought the Moltex ones in Superquinn, a local supermarket. You can also buy them online from a number of retailers.

I usually buy Nature Babycare disps but I can only source those where I used to live in Dublin (about 50 miles away) so if I have to get them here I buy Tesco ownbrand but I have no idea who makes them.

I get my Moltex either from my local alternative technology shop (I say local, it's abotu 8 miles away) or from an on-line retailer.

I have no idea what else Ontex makes.
