This French company was founded in 2011. It originally specialized in baby diapers, but diversified its offering in 2017 by launching into feminine hygiene paper products. However, diapers account for 80% of Love & Green's sales.
The company positions itself on the market by offering diapers that are free from toxic products and respectful of the environment. Their diapers carry various labels attesting to this (ECOLABEL, TCF-certified cellulose - Total Chloride Free - and FSC - forest-friendly. The company should also see demand for its product boosted by the ANSES revelations.
Love&Green diapers (as well as wipes and feminine hygiene products) are available in supermarkets (in 30 to 40% of them), as well as in their boutique on their website. They are made in Switzerland.
