About Us

GreenPomelo® is a small family business, based in London, UK. It was started by a passionate mum, Su, who is using modern cloth nappies on her baby boy, little Ethan. The discovery of GreenPomelo® was an organic one. Su enjoys design works and as a design graduate from London Metropolitan University, she understands and cares about the impact and the importance of saving our planet environments.

Su is currently a volunteer representative for Real Nappies for London, Hackney Real Nappy Network, and is also a spoke person for Hackney Real Nappy Network on Yeah! Hackney. We are a group of parents and carers who use and promote real nappies. We run regular events such as nappuccinos, real nappy swaps and 'sew your own nappy accessories' workshops. We also give talks at classes, run information stalls at events and have regular network meetings. Plus, we are also a big fan of Elimination Communication: Infant Potty Training. It is only natural for the little ones to start as soon as they could. So, by-all-means, using modern cloth nappy can be use as a back up plan!

We are also a registered suppliers for Real Nappies for London and accept their vouchers scheme. This means that if you are eligible for a financial incentive from your local London Borough Council, your voucher may be redeemed directly through our store.

As long as you launder properly, it can be used for the entire duration of your baby’s napping years. Although it may seem a little expensive to start a cloth nappy system, but it is all worth it! It will pay off! Think about all the money you’ll spend compared to buying disposable nappies for many years to come.
