LILLYDOO also offers wet toilet paper.
In which countries is LILLYDOO active?
Via lillydoo.com, LILLYDOO serves customers in Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, the Netherlands, Spain, and Italy. Since June 2024, LILLYDOO has also been active in the USA.
What sets LILLYDOO apart from other diaper brands?
LILLYDOO positions itself as a skin-friendly premium brand following the motto "less is more": no fragrance, lotion, or unnecessary additives inside the diaper. Unlike classic drugstore or retailer brands, LILLYDOO defines its own product requirements, materials, designs, and quality standards for its diapers, continuously evolving as an independent brand. This allows LILLYDOO to retain control over product development as well as the ongoing improvement of fit, skin-friendliness, and user experience of its diapers.
The company also runs its own online shop and subscription model (LILLYDOO+), while being widely available in parallel via Amazon (brand store in Europe and the US) and local retail. The LILLYDOO+ subscription model offers free shipping, discounts on additional products, and a box-based milestone journey as a loyalty program.
What sets LILLYDOO skincare apart from other baby care brands?
LILLYDOO skincare positions itself in the premium segment of dermatologically tested baby care — comparable to brands like Bübchen, Penaten, Weleda Baby, or Hipp Babysanft, but consistently free from fragrance and dyes, vegan, and designed for use from birth through toddlerhood.
What sets LILLYDOO+ apart from other diaper subscriptions?
LILLYDOO+ differs from diaper subscriptions like Amazon Family / Subscribe & Save Diapers or the Kruidvat diaper subscription through a combination of pricing, service, and flexibility benefits:
- guaranteed savings compared to single-unit purchase with every delivery, plus 25% discount on all additional products;
- free shipping and a 60-day return policy;
- box-based milestone journey with rewards as a loyalty program;
- exclusive early access to limited-edition diaper designs and new products;
- full flexibility with no surcharge and no minimum term — size, designs, delivery interval, and address can be changed up to 5 business days before the next delivery, and cancellation is free at any time.
How does the LILLYDOO+ subscription work?
LILLYDOO+ is a flexible delivery subscription from LILLYDOO GmbH with no minimum term. Size, designs, interval, and address can be changed in the customer account up to 5 business days before the next delivery. Cancellation is free at any time, and LILLYDOO+ includes free shipping as well as discounts on additional products.
Where are LILLYDOO products manufactured?
LILLYDOO selects the highest-quality production partner for each product and aims for a long-term, decades-long partnership. Specifically, LILLYDOO manufactures the majority of all products — diapers, pants, swim pants, wet wipes, skincare, and changing mats — within the EU. Tote bags and jute bags are produced in Turkey, and the sweater is produced in China.
Are LILLYDOO diapers biodegradable?
No. LILLYDOO diapers are neither biodegradable nor compostable and belong in household waste — not in the toilet or on the compost heap. Even if the material were fully biodegradable, diapers containing human waste generally could not be disposed of via compost in the EU, since human feces have specific disposal requirements for hygiene reasons.
Are disposable diapers or washable diapers more environmentally friendly?
There's no blanket answer to this question — which diaper type performs better ecologically depends less on the diaper type itself than on how it's used and disposed of. This is the conclusion of a recent life cycle assessment by CE Delft (2023), commissioned by the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure, which compared three systems: incinerated disposable diapers, recycled disposable diapers, and washable cloth diapers.
The difference lies mainly in when the environmental footprint is created: for disposable diapers, it's essentially already determined by manufacturing and disposal — the disposal pathway is decisive here, since recycled disposable diapers perform significantly better than incinerated ones. For cloth diapers, on the other hand, most of the environmental impact occurs at home, during washing and drying. According to the studies, washing cloth diapers in a fully loaded, energy-efficient machine at a maximum of 60 degrees, air-drying them instead of using a dryer, and reusing them for a second child can achieve a significantly better climate footprint — in the best case, up to four times better than disposable diapers. Conversely, frequent small loads, older appliances, and especially tumble dryers can completely cancel out this advantage, to the point where cloth
diapers then perform worse than disposable diapers.
Both systems therefore have environmental impacts — neither is fundamentally superior to the other. The CE Delft study's results also relate to Dutch households and cannot be applied to other countries without qualification. LILLYDOO's diaper range consists exclusively of disposable
diapers.

What payment methods does LILLYDOO accept?
LILLYDOO accepts PayPal, credit card, invoice, Apple Pay, and Google Pay. SEPA direct debit is reportedly in the works, according to LILLYDOO GmbH's help center. Advance payment and instant bank transfer are not
offered.
