Kushies
Kushies has been manufacturing cloth diapers and baby products in Ontario since 1986. One of the oldest Canadian baby brands, they offer reusable cloth diapers, training pants, bibs, and baby accessories — a Canadian alternative to Pampers, Huggies, and American diaper brands.
Why Switch?
Pampers is made by Procter & Gamble (Cincinnati) and Huggies by Kimberly-Clark (Dallas) — two American multinationals whose profits leave Canada entirely. Kushies has been making cloth diapers in Ontario since 1986, giving Canadian parents a reusable alternative that saves money over time and keeps diaper manufacturing dollars in Canada. A single investment in Kushies cloth diapers eliminates hundreds of single-use diaper purchases, supporting both Canadian manufacturing and a more sustainable approach to baby care.
Canadian parents who want to reduce diaper waste, save money long-term, and support a Canadian manufacturer that has been making baby products in Ontario for nearly 40 years.
