Produce 100% compostable baby diaper inlays, transform used one into rich soil, ready to plant fruit trees.
DYCLE is a fundamentally new way of how baby diapers are to be produced, used and recycled, or rather upcycled when they are no longer a waste but a nutrient for plants, transformed into fertile soil.
The project will create small communities of around 100 families each living in the same neighborhood, meeting regularly at the diapers distribution/collection points, planting fruit trees together, living their lives in a more connected way. We believe that many people’s small change in everyday life can bring bigger changes afoot – strengthening communities from the bottom up.

From diaper waste to fertile black humus: we reduce waste and gain back valuable nutrients. It is good for the climate, too.
