Finally much needed sustainability-led innovation to come to the diapers markets. Well done Amrita Saigal and team!
Kudos is the first and only disposable diaper where baby’s bum touches 100% cotton all day. Not plastic. Why cotton? It’s naturally soft and sustainable, and it’s the #1 doctor-recommended material for those suffering from rash or eczema. Combined with patent-pending DoubleDryTM tech, designed with two moisture-trapping layers instead of the traditional one, these diapers are a real game changer when it comes to protecting baby’s sensitive skin, the planet, and your couch;)
Highlights:
100% cotton: Kudos is the only disposable diaper lined with 100% cotton. Cotton is clinically proven to be hypoallergenic and gentle on sensitive skin.
4x the green: Kudos diapers are made with 4x more plant-based materials than the leading diaper brand. We’re talking cotton, sugarcane, and trees.
2x the layers: The Kudos team of former MIT and P&G engineers designed our patent-pending DoubleDry tech with two absorption layers instead of one to prevent sneaky leaks.
I love the amazing work Amrita does (she's been recently featured in TechCrunch). Give this a try!
This looks awesome @saigal88 ! Can't wait to try them out for our little ones.
Hey Everyone 😀,
Big thanks @justinkan for hunting us!
💡 While working as a manufacturing engineer at Procter & Gamble, I saw first hand how much plastic goes into baby diapers; in fact, diapers are the 3rd largest contributor to landfill waste. Surprisingly, with most diapers out there (even the most natural ones), everything that touches your baby’s skin is 100% plastic. This inspired me to build the most natural diaper on the market that did not make any compromises on performance - after all, no one wants to deal with a diaper blowout, no matter how natural a diaper is.
🌱 Kudos is the first and only disposable diaper to have earned the cotton natural seal for having your baby sit in 100% breathable cotton all day. Not plastic. Kudos diapers are made with 4x more plant-based materials than the leading disposable diaper and are free of harmful ingredients. Kudos’ patent-pending technology is a game changer when it comes to diaper rash, which our early adopters are ecstatic about.
🎁 For those of you with kiddos in diapers, I’d love for you to give Kudos a try and let me know your thoughts. Use promo code "PRODUCTHUNT15" for 15% off your first order.
Kudos to diapering the world differently!
@justinkan @saigal88 I didn't know diapers were the third largest contributor to landfill waste. Well done.
Absolutely love these diapers. It's like the Apple of diapers - very high quality, just touching them you feel the difference. very natural and good for the baby!
Nice idea! How organic are these diapers though? And where does the cotton come from? I understand the eco-friendliness of this move but cotton may imply other controversies
@rubenwolff Great questions! We wrote up two blog posts to answer both these questions! Our cotton is sourced from the US.
Here is a blog post describing the details of our cotton:

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Really a great product. I bought these right when they launched for my friends baby. I love the different designs you can choose from and the fact that they are 100% cotton.
@lauren_peterson2 thanks so so much Lauren for your support and for spreading the word to your friends <3
This is awesome! I am not a mom yet but I'm already thinking of the environmental impact of diapers when I do have kids. I've been working to cut down my plastic use more and more (Stasher bags, biodegradable/reusable sponges, shampoo bars). I know there are re-usable diapers but this is a more accessible option for a lot of moms who are struggling with time.
@sarah_wright7 I love that you are taking all these steps to reduce your everyday plastic use. All these changes add up to be quite a lot over time - so THANK YOU!
Love the name. Shocked to know we did not have disposable diapers before. The product looks amazing. First movers always have an advantage. All the best
And a real game-changer when it comes to protecting your brand new yellow dress. Trust me, I'm an aunty! Much needed and innovative product. Congrats!
@eve_rad Our goal is to protect all the brand new yellow dresses in the world;)
We decided to beta test with my 2yo son and his only explosions have been the ones of joy from having a dry, comfortable and rash free diaper. Then we get the added comfort of knowing we’re using the best disposable diaper for the environment. Kudos all around!
@eric_s_bernstein I'm so happy to hear you had a great experience. Thanks for beta testing:)
Wow! I am OBSESSED with this diaper - not only doing good for our babies bums but also doing good for our planet Earth!!!
Really impressed that Kudos has pulled off a diaper that is this sustainable - congratulations to Amrita and team!
