Our MAM Original pacifier with its thin and symmetrical teat shape is a tried and tested product that has been on the market for many decades. The unique MAM design made with bio-renewable materials combined with the wide range of collections make it a reliable and sustainable pacifier for every situation.
Non-nutritive sucking is an important source of comfort for your baby. Therefore professionals recommend pacifiers, when breastfeeding is well established. Yet parents often express concerns regarding the potential effects of pacifiers on their baby's oral development. A particular worry revolves around the thickness and hardness of many pacifier teats, placing excessive pressure on the teeth and jaw. This can result in misalignment of your baby’s teeth. For the MAM Original pacifier we developed a symmetrical, thin and jaw-friendly teat small enough to minimize the impact on your baby’s oral development, while still satisfying your baby’s sucking need.
We are constantly striving to reduce the CO2 emissions of our products. Of course, this is no easy task and takes time. We have taken a first step by converting some of our products to polypropylene traceable to biocircular raw material²1 and have thus taken an important step towards decoupling from fossil raw materials. Nevertheless, CO2 emissions continue to be generated along the value chain for these products. In order to fulfill our responsibility for climate protection in the meantime, until we have implemented further measures, we are making the CO2 emissions of these products climate-neutral. This is possible through the financial support of climate protection projects.
We have taken the following three steps to make our polypropylene products climate-neutral and traceable to biocircular raw materials²:
* Wetenschappelijke rapporten van het Wild Hi-Precision instituut bevestigen dat de speenhals van de MAM Perfect gemiddeld 60% dunner is. Een reeks tests uitgevoerd door de Universiteitskliniek voor Tandheelkunde in Wenen bevestigen dat de MAM Perfect ook gemiddeld 4 keer flexibeler is dan vergelijkbare speentjes. (Tussen: 32-83% dunner en 1,1-19,5 keer flexibeler dan reguliere silicone speentjes).
