ECOdirect
www.ecodirect.com.au
ECOdirect was started with the aim of offering Australian mothers an environmentally and baby friendly nappy not previously available on the Australian nappy market. The company now delivers nappies direct to the doors of hundreds of families across Australia, along with biodegradable nappy bags and a new range of natural baby care products called WotNot Baby.

Their Moltex Eco Nappies are the only disposable nappy licensed by Good Environmental Choice Australia (GECA) to carry the Ecolabel. The GECA Ecolabel rewards environmental excellence and recognises these nappies as environmentally preferable to the highest international standards.

The certified biodegradable ECO Nappy Bag comes in a convenient roll of 50 with easy-to-tie handles to ensure no leakage. The WotNot baby care range is free from sulphates, petrochemicals, parabens, artificial preservatives and fragrances. The products do not use animal derived ingredients and are not tested on animals.

Generation Wonder

The range is for little citizens of the world from 0-12 years. The organic and fairtrade product range includes clothes, shoes, bags, accessories, bedding, games & puzzles, organic baby food, books & magazines, keepsakes, stationery & cards, toys, dolls and gift vouchers.

The clothes are always popular, as they are really unique, organic cotton or fair trade cotton, Australian made, sweat-shop free and sales support charities (lots of ticks in lots of boxes!). People love our range of books because they represent diversity and this kind of book is not readily available in shops.

Anything that is whimsical and innocent and speaks of simpler times is popular — like our fair trade dolls that are so sweet and handknitted finger puppets.
