• What materials are used to make HUGGIES® diapers?

  The inside absorbent padding on HUGGIES® diapers is made of wood cellulose fiber (a fluffy paper-like material), and a superabsorbent material called polyacrylate. Other materials include polypropylene, polyester, and polyethylene - all synthetic materials designed to enhance the fit of the diaper and help stop leaks. The elastic strands in all HUGGIES® diapers are made of synthetic rubber for a snug but gentle fit for baby.

• I have noticed crystals and gel in the diapers. What are these materials, and are they harmful?

  The crystals and gel are forms of a superabsorbent material. Superabsorbent diapers offer significant benefits: drawing wetness away from baby's skin and helping to keep baby's skin healthy. In HUGGIES® diapers, superabsorbent material is mixed with the diaper padding. This material turns liquid into a gel, helping to prevent leakage. Occasionally, you may see small beads of gel on the diaper or on your baby, but the gel is nontoxic and will not harm them. Superabsorbent material, also known as polyacrylate absorbents, are a family of polymers that have extraordinary absorbency. The safety of superabsorbent material has been proven in over 450 consumer safety tests studying every which way a person could come in contact with it - through skin contact, or perhaps a baby's eating it out of normal curiosity. Each study has consistently demonstrated the safety of this material.

• I found some of the ink from the diaper on my child's skin. Is it safe?

  The safety of our product is our number one priority. HUGGIES® diapers have featured colorful graphics for a number of years and you can be confident that all components in our diapers, including the ink, have been thoroughly tested and are safe.
