Mānuka, (Leptospermum scoparium) is a plant native to New Zealand. Mānuka has many medicinal properties, its most valued for its antiviral, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits produced from plant distillation.

These natural benefits make Mānuka perfect for Noopii® nappies and pants, as Mānuka also has natural anti-bacterial properties. We've harnessed this natural property and created nappies and pants that contain Mānuka Hydrosol (Mānuka Leaf Water), a natural end-product from the steam distillation of Mānuka Essential Oil.

Mānuka Hydrosol contains a complex combination of over 100 natural organic compounds, produced via the distillation process. The final product is naturally antibacterial and anti-microbial. This addition of Mānuka Hydrosol means we've created nappies that are naturally antibacterial; inhibiting the growth of bacteria, preventing nappy rash.

This product and process is proudly New Zealand made, we acquire our Mānuka Hydrosol from New Zealand Mānuka Bioactives in Opotiki. You can learn more about our Mānuka Hydrosol, where it comes from and how its made here.
