For the fourth consecutive year, Splash About, has won gold for its Happy Nappy swim nappy in the Best Swimming Product category of the Mother&Baby Awards. Now in its 27th year, the award winners were announced and celebrated with a virtual awards ceremony.

Splash About designs and develops advanced swimwear for babies and young children. Its flagship swim-school approved reusable swim nappy, the Happy Nappy, received gold again for Best Swimming Product; receiving praise for both its fit and the reassurance of a leak-free swim. Parent testers also loved that it is reusable, preventing environmental waste typically associated with paper swim nappies.

Splash About’s new Happy Nappy Sunsuit also won silver in the Best Travel Product under £30 category.

Launched in July, the sunsuit is a winning combination; a lightweight, soft and stretchy UPF50+ Nylon Lycra body and a reliable, reusable swim nappy bottom. It therefore protects babies and toddlers both in and out of the water.

Commenting is Bernadette Spofforth, managing director of Splash About International. “The Mother&Baby awards continue to be a strong benchmark for Splash About. This is because our products are thoroughly tested and judged by our harshest critics – parents.

“This year has been tough, and our leisure and travel sectors have been amongst the hardest hit. Parents have put our products through their paces and judged them on value for money and effectiveness as well as the aesthetic design and making life easier.

“We couldn’t be prouder that our products really deliver in the key areas that are important to parents. Knowing they trust our products and give them their seal of approval is a real testament to our brand and its values.”

Over 150,000 UK babies swim each week in a Happy Nappy.

Over 90% of UK swim schools insist on it. It is also best practice according to British Standards (BSi) guidelines for baby swimming. With its ergonomic shape, flexible but fitted gusset, and specialist pressure fabric ribbing at the waist and legs, the Happy Nappy offers reliable protection against leaks.

The Happy Nappy and the new Happy Nappy Sunsuit are both available to buy wholesale. For further information and trade enquires contact sales@splashabout.com.
