Behind the Brand: BumGenius & Flip
Added on 05 January 2013 in Behind the Brand, BumGenius, Ethical manufacture, FlipJenn Labit started her company, Cotton Babies, in 2002 with $100 worth of product in a tiny green milkcrate stored on a shelf in her kitchen. It grew from there to a bookshelf, then a closet, then a bedroom, then a basement and finally, the business exploded into commercial space.

In 2009, Jenn and Cotton Babies developed and launched the best selling Flip System, a hybrid nappying system. Flip provides parents with an affordable hybrid All-in-Two system. Options include organic inserts, stay-dry inserts and a disposable insert. The Flip Training Pants are also been added to the lineup and are proving very popular.
The Bumgenius and Flip nappies are made in Cotton Babies facilities in Colorado, USA and Alexandria, Egypt (with some production in Pakistan and China) where they are committed to providing workers with fair and ethical wages and conditions. [Update 2013: Cotton Babies have returned production of all their nappies to the USA].
