Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is PUL fabric and why is it used for DIY cloth diapers?
A: PUL (Polyurethane Laminate) fabric is a knitted polyester fabric bonded with a TPU waterproof coating on one side. It is the industry standard material for making reusable cloth diapers because it is breathable on the outside while being completely waterproof on the inside — keeping your baby dry and comfortable during everyday wear and swim time.
Q: How much fabric do I get per meter, and what can I make with it?
A: Each piece measures approximately 1 m (length) × 1.5 m (width), giving you 1.5 square meters of fabric. This is typically enough to sew 3–5 cloth diaper covers, a swim diaper, multiple bibs, a wet bag, or a combination of smaller baby accessories — making it excellent value for DIY crafters.
Q: Is this PUL fabric safe for use against baby skin?
A: Yes. The fabric is SGS certified and contains no high-concern chemicals. The breathable polyester outer layer is designed to sit comfortably against or near baby's skin, while the inner TPU layer acts as the waterproof barrier. Always pre-wash new fabric before first use as a best practice for any baby textile project.
Q: Can I wash finished items made from this PUL fabric in a washing machine?
A: Absolutely. Items made from this fabric can be both hand washed and machine washed. To maintain the waterproof properties and vibrant prints, wash in cool water (under 30°C / 86°F), avoid bleach and fabric softeners, and air or sun dry when possible.
Q: How do I choose between the plain colors and printed patterns?
A: With 14 plain colors and over 153 printed patterns available, you can select your preferred design when adding the product to your cart. Printed patterns include a wide variety of fun summer and seasonal themes suitable for both boys and girls, while plain colors are perfect for mixing and matching or minimalist designs.
