Performance we can prove
(and sleep on)

We're obsessed with making a nappy that actually does its job. But do n't just take our word for it. We sent our nappies to an independent lab to test them against other leading brands where it really matters: leaks, dryness, and sleep.

How we selected which competitors to test against
To ensure our performance tests were relevant to the choices you face every day, we asked our community of Peachies parents which brands they used before switching. Their feedback showed a clear pattern: many were looking for a better-performing alternative to other eco-focused challenger brands and popular supermarket own-brands.

Based on these responses, we selected a representative group of these key challenger brands to put to the test in an independent laboratory. This included some of the most frequently mentioned names from our poll, such as Kit & Kin, Eco by Naty, and Aldi Mamia, alongside other key players in the eco-challenger space like Pura. This ensures our comparisons are not only fair and objective but are directly relevant to you.

Here’s the proof:

Test 1: Maximum absorption

What it means for you and your baby: Peace of mind against leaks for longer stretches.

This test measures the absolute maximum amount of liquid a nappy can absorb before it's full.

A higher number = better leak protection.

Total Absorbency Results (in grams)

  • Peachies: 649.8g
  • Pura Baby: 604.5g
  • Kit & Kin: 592.5g
  • Eco by Naty: 591.1g
  • Mamia: 574.9g

👉🏽 The Peachies difference: We hold the most.

The data is clear: Peachies nappies hold significantly more liquid. Our super-absorbent core is engineered for maximum capacity, giving you the confidence that your baby is protected, day and night.

86.89% of Peachies parents think Peachies performs better on overnight leak protection than their previous brand.2

Test 2: Liquid retention

What it means for you and your baby: Liquid stays locked in when baby is wriggling, sitting or snoozing. This test checks how much liquid stays locked in when weight is applied to the nappy.

A higher number means the nappy locks wetness in and won't leak, even when full.

(Or: Higher = Better)

Wetness Retention Results (in grams)

  • Peachies: 481.7g
  • Mamia: 400.6g
  • Pura Baby: 375.0g
  • Kit & Kin: 370.6g
  • Eco by Naty: 278.4g

👉🏽The Peachies difference: locked-in dryness.

It's one thing to absorb liquid; it's another to keep it locked away. Peachies retain more wetness under pressure, preventing those dreaded leaks on the go,or after a long night's sleep.

78.6% of Peachies parents reported an improvement in their baby’s sleep thanks to Peachies.3

Test 3: The surface dryness test

What it means for you and your baby: Dry skin, fewer rashes. A lower number is better, as it means skin stays dry and comfortable, helping to reduce the risk of irritation. This test measures how much moisture comes back to the surface of the nappy that sits against your baby's skin.

Surface Rewet Under Pressure (in ml) - Lower is Better

Brand Result (ml)
Mamia 0.14
Peachies 0.47
Pura Baby 0.79
Kit & Kin 0.95
Eco by Naty 4.19
Industry Target for Excellence < 0.5 ml

👉🏽The Peachies difference: Skin that stays peachy.

Our advanced top-sheet is designed to feel instantly dry, pulling moisture away from the skin. We hit the industry gold standard for dryness - comfortably. Nearly twice as dry as Kit & Kin, and 8x drier than Eco by Naty. No soggy bums here.

The results are in.
