Thirsties Cloth Diapers



		Our mission... Thirsties® line of cloth diapers were launched in an ongoing effort to offer quality diapers at affordable prices. Our mission is to make it easy and affordable for every family to choose cloth. We are very proud of the fact that all of our products are now USA made by a group of very talented women many of whom work in the comfort and convenience of their own homes. We use only the best of US sourced components to ensure your diapers will last wash after wash and provide the very best in comfort and leakproof cloth diapering. What makes us GREEN? In addition to offering a green consumer product, we strive to keep the carbon footprint of our business to a minimum. Here is how we do it... Packaging materials are recycled and new packaging is made from the highest post-consumer content available. All of our printing is done on recycled paper with 100% post-consumer content. Our office and packing/shipping space (where we spend most of our days) is heated by solar hot air collectors and supplemented by a pellet stove on cloudy days. Luckily it is sunny in this part of Colorado 325 days of the year, and the average high temperature in the winter is 50F (11C) so we only need to use about 1/4 ton pellets each winter. Our 1000 sq ft overstock area is heated with strategically placed southern exposure windows to allow for passive solar. Only high-efficiency Energy Star rated compact fluorescent light bulbs are used. Lights are turned off when rooms are not in use and we shut down all computers and components completely at the end of each day. All of our fabric and components are sourced as locally as possible thereby cutting down on unnecessary transportation. We choose fabrics that dry quickly and remain soft even when hung to dry to encourage our customers to retire their dryers. All cutting and sewing is also done in Colorado so as to keep transport carbon to a minimum. About us... We honestly believe that we are in the best possible business as you, our customers, share in our values and concerns for happy and healthy baby beginnings and fighting for sound futures. If ever you have any suggestions on how to improve our products or the way in which we operate our business, we'd love to hear your suggestions! If you happen to be cruising through sunny and beautiful, Cañon City, Colorado...we'd love to meet you. Our warehouse is an old grainery that is a part of our downtown home. Let us know you are coming, & we'll throw on a pot of tea and give you the tour. - Erin Kimmett, owner & her inspirations
