The Upcycled Diaper Project

Reusable Diapers, Sustainably.

Turning unwanted t-shirts into reusable diapers.

Our Process

Permanent Diaper Relief turns unwanted t-shirts into diaper absorbency, allowing all babies to have clean and healthy bottoms until toilet training. We use 4 dimensions, dependent on the t-shirt size, to maximize fabric usage from each t-shirt.
