ℹ️General Overview
For school-age children (5 years and up), wood pulp used on the skin is very safe. It’s a natural absorbent found in wipes and bandages and is not expected to cause harm.
✅What to Do
Use products containing wood pulp as directed. For children with sensitive skin, try a small patch test on the arm first. Don’t apply products with wood pulp to deep cuts or open wounds. If your child gets any redness, itching or swelling, stop use and rinse the area. If swallowed, contact poison control or a doctor.
⚠️Warnings

Still, avoid putting wood-pulp-containing products in your child’s mouth, and avoid using them on broken skin. Watch for signs of irritation (redness, itching, rash) and stop use if they appear.
