Disposable nappies take 300-500 years to decompose in landfill. By using modern cloth nappies, together we will divert approximately 5,500 disposable nappies entering landfill per child.
Conder House’s modern cloth nappy service is designed to take all the hassle out of nappies for you. We’ll drop off clean nappies and take your dirty ones away. It’s all about making it easier to get on with the important things!

Every business has an environmental footprint. We have processes in place that reduce it as much as possible. We only use bio-degradable chemicals. We have a solar system that is large enough to provide all of our daytime electricity usage, and we have ‘opted in’ for Carbon Neutral Gas. We also offer linen bags and nappy pail liners to clients to reduce the use of plastic bags. When using plastic bags and disposable gloves, we use Bio-Gone products, which biodegrade in landfills 90% faster, producing organic matter (a natural fertiliser) and no microplastics. Lastly, we have partnered with Textile Recyclers Australia so that decommissioned linen and nappies are recycled rather than sent to landfill.
Conder House has its own branded nappies. They are known as ‘pocket nappies’ as there is a pocket at the top of the nappy that holds the insert. The water-resistant outer fabric is made from polyester with a polyurethane laminate. We supply five pastel colours (pink, blue, yellow, purple and green). We also mix it up by providing holiday print nappies during Christmas, Easter, Halloween and St Valentine’s Day as well as swim nappies during the hotter months. The inside of the nappy has a soft polyester suede inner which wicks the moisture away from the skin. The inserts, which hold the fluids are a combination of microfibre and bamboo.
Our operations are in accordance with Australian and New Zealand standards for Laundry Practice (AS/NZS 4146:2000).
