Grab one of these thirsty hemp/cotton trifold and bamboo booster sets for extra absorbency! Pair with Monarch's Pull-Ups or Ultimate Nappies! Monarch Store's hemp trifolds and bamboo boosters can be used interchangeably between their Snap & Wipe Ultimate Nappies and their Pull-Ups! Stuff them in the pocket of the Pull-Ups, Snap them into the Ultimate shell, or simply lay them in for a super absorbent, versatile nappy!
4-layer Hemp/Cotton Trifold Insert
- The trifold inserts are made of 4 layers of hemp/cotton, providing 12 layers of extreme absorbency when folded into 3. Hemp is a natural fibre which is one of the most absorbent fabrics available on the market.
- Hemp is so incredibly absorbent that it can absorb up to 20% of its own weight while still feeling dry to the touch, reducing the amount of moisture sitting against your little one's bum.
3-layer Bamboo Booster
- This snap-in booster is perfect for a little extra & quicker absorbency. It can be snapped into the shell to boost the built-in absorbent core or layered with the hemp trifold.
- The booster can be folded in half or in thirds to allow you to customise absorbency where your little one needs it most, whether that's at the front or the middle.
- They are made from 3-layers of pure thirsty bamboo and will hold the extra moisture for those longer car-trips or nap-times.
You will receive one 4-layer hemp/cotton trifold and one 3-layer bamboo booster in each Set.

Your wash | dry routine is integral to maintaining the lifespan of your nappies and helps to keep your nappies in tip top condition.
Below is a generic outline only and we recommend that you follow the wash instructions specified by each brand and read all about what NOT to use on your cloth nappies!
Washing your new nappies? Read what to do here.

* Note: Some brands recommend rinsing all nappies as soon as they come off to help prevent the build-up of ammonia smell
* Night nappies tend to be the smelliest due to the higher concentration and quantity of urine they withhold. A thorough hand-rinse in hot water with detergent, in the morning, is recommended *(but here at TCS we do our daily prewash as soon as the morning nappies come off to avoid this step) *


*Removes bulk of soiling here to allow the main wash to be done in clean water.
*Most brands recommend a daily pre-wash on the nappies used within the last 24hrs
*A full load is recommended for the best agitation and clean. Pad out the load with tea towels or clothing if required.
*Most brands recommend a main wash every other day
*A full load is recommended for the best agitation and clean. Pad out the load with tea towels or clothing if required.
* If you follow a good wash routine and wash at the correct temperatures, then barrier creams will wash out! More details here.
Detergent: Most of our stocked brands recommend a good quality main stream detergent. Here at TCS we alternate between OMO Ultimate, OMO Sensitive & Biozet Attack Regular Laundry Liquids.....whatever happens to be on sale at the time! Woolworths and Coles regularly offer half price sales on these brands so keep your eye out for the sales. Prefer a more natural solution? Then look no further than Kin Kin Eco Laundry liquid which is available here.
