Silver Lining is a new reusable waterproof pant approved by swim-schools as a double nappy requirement, featuring technology which is scientifically proven to destroy faecal bacteria before it enters pool water.
The new Silver Lining nappy wrap fits snugly under Splash About’s range of Happy Nappy products or regular baby swim costumes, swim shorts or wetsuits.
Lesley Beach, Splash About’s director of finance and operations, commented: “The Silver Lining originally launched integrated inside our Happy Nappy Duo swim nappy. Due to the overwhelming response that the Duo received from parents and swim schools alike, we decided to launch the Silver Lining as a standalone product.
“Baby swim schools insist on a double layer of protection in the pool, our reusable Silver Lining can replace disposables and is worn underneath our existing range of Happy Nappy products, or paired with our Splash Jammers for potty training toddlers.”
Bernadette Spofforth, managing director of Splash About, added: “With the average baby using 5,000 disposable nappies, compared to only 16 reusable ones, choosing a reusable swim nappy is an obvious choice. Not only because it reduces household waste, but it also means fewer nappies going to landfill where they can take up to 500 years to decompose. It makes sense for the planet and your wallet.”
The Silver Lining under swim nappy is a result of four years of scientific development and intensive testing. It is lightweight, soft and soothing on a baby’s skin, and the anti-bacterial liner is designed to hold and trap any faecal matter and the silver particles destroy any bacteria or viruses that chlorine alone could not easily kill. This includes E.coli and cryptosporidium. It is also highly effective against other viruses such as Covid.
The Silver Lining is suitable for babies from birth to three years old.
