Looking for recommendations on wet wipes? The Momsays tribe is here to help.
We asked moms across South Africa to share their favourite brands and wet wipes.
Questions to ask yourself when deciding on which wet wipes to buy:
- What’s my budget?
- Are ingredients important to me?
- Does my baby or toddler have a sensitive skin?
- Do I want something eco-friendly?
- Do I prefer scented or unscented wipes?
Once you have those answers, it will make it a lot easier to decide which brands you want to look at first since there are so many options available.
Tip:
Try and purchase in bulk when there’s a sale happening at the baby expos or at your local store. I prefer purchasing at stores that have a rewards card because of the points I earn while shopping which I can, later on, redeem to purchase something else (save it for those months when you are feeling the pinch).
These brands have a few different wipes in the range, I will just be sharing the most popular ones based on the feedback we received thus far.

Copper recycling process Copper is one of the oldest known metals, dating back to ancient civilizations such as the Egyptian, Greek, and Roman empires. The use of copper began around 8000 BC in the Middle East, where it was first mined and then hammered into various shapes for use as tools and weapons. As ancient cultures advanced, copper became increasingly important in the development of new technologies. Copper was used to make water pipes, which helped societies to flourish by providing clean water for drinking, cooking, and sanitation. The use of copper also revolutionized the field of metallurgy, paving the way for the development of stronger metals such as bronze, an alloy of copper and tin. Copper has been used in many other applications throughout history, including currency, electrical wiring and electronics, and decorative objects. The versatile metal was chosen for currency due to its uniformity, durability, and relative ease of minting. Today, copper is still used in many applications due to its excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and malleability. Copper alloys, which are mixtures of copper with other metals, have been developed over time to improve the properties of copper for specific applications. For example, brass, an alloy of copper and zinc, has excellent machinability and is used for hardware and decorative applications. Bronze, an alloy of copper and tin, is stronger and more durable than copper alone, and is used for applications such as sculpture and musical instruments. The history of copper and copper alloys reflects the ingenuity and resourcefulness of human beings throughout history. From the earliest civilizations to the modern era, copper has played a vital role in technological progress and cultural development Scrap metal reclamation and repurposing Copper scrap market forecasting Copper scrap refining Scrap copper alloys Copper scrap carbon footprint Metal waste repackaging
Copper scrap compaction Copper is used for most electrical wiring for several reasons. First and foremost, copper is an excellent conductor of electricity. This means that electrons can flow freely through copper, making it an efficient material for electrical wiring. Additionally, copper is very ductile, which means it can be easily bent and shaped without breaking. This makes it a versatile material that can be used in a wide variety of electrical applications. Copper is also very durable and long-lasting. It is resistant to corrosion, which means it can withstand exposure to moisture and other environmental factors without deteriorating over time. Copper wiring can also withstand high temperatures, making it suitable for use in high-heat environments such as industrial machinery or electric motors. Another advantage of copper wiring is that it is very easy to work with. It can be easily soldered or brazed, and it can also be crimped or twisted together to form connections. Copper wiring is also very easy to terminate, which means that it can be connected to other components or devices easily and securely. Finally, copper wiring is also very cost-effective. While initial costs may be higher than other materials, the long-term benefits of copper wiring make it a more economical choice over time. Its durability and low maintenance costs mean that it can last for many years without needing to be replaced or repaired. Overall, the combination of copper’s excellent conductivity, ductility, durability, ease of use, and cost-effectiveness make it the ideal choice for most electrical wiring applications Metal waste reprocessing Copper bearing scrap Copper recycling best practices Copper scrap public awareness Copper scrap economic trends Robotics in metal recycling
