About REDYPER™ Powered by EarthBaby

EarthBaby was started by two Bay Area dads in 2008 and merged with DYPER in 2020. 

After searching for a convenient and environmentally friendly alternative to disposable diapers they found that single-use compostable diapers were available, but no service existed to actually compost them. They learned that unless these diapers were composted by a licensed commercial compost facility, they would still end up in the landfill where nothing has a chance to compost.

Disposable diapers constitute the 3rd largest contributor (by volume) to US landfill sites today.* EarthBaby addresses this problem and closes the loop, ensuring that diapers stay out of the landfill.

Currently EarthBaby diverts more than 14 tons of diaper waste from Bay Area landfills each week and converts it to nutrient-rich soil.
