Flats + Prefolds
Flats and prefolds are just like traditional nappies - they require folding and a nappy cover to use but are the most economical and earth-friendly nappy style.
Flats are your standard traditional nappy, a large square of fabric such as cotton terry or muslin that is folded into a nappy shape.
Prefolds are similar to flats however they have been pre-folded and stitched with extra layers through the middle panel. Prefolds are easier to use than flats and can also be used as extra absorbency in other nappies.
