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.
The MAM Original comes in a pacifier sterilizer box that is a handy carrying case and lets you sterilize your pacifiers in a few simple steps. The sterilizing function of this box enables to disinfect pacifiers hygienically and quickly in the microwave in an energy-saving process. Using the sterilizer box saves up to 77% of energy and CO2.³
We produce safe products to the highest standards of quality while also focusing on conserving resources. We use plastics that can be traced back to bio-circular raw materials², continually optimise our packaging, and help our consumers reduce CO2 in the use phase of our products.
Short transport routes are an important criterion in choosing our suppliers. We are continually expanding the photovoltaic systems at our production sites, and our sales offices carry out climate protection activities on an ongoing basis.
Based on our ethical principles, we create safe and fair working conditions and ensure equality of opportunity. We also require the same of our partners. Through our commitment to society, we support the welfare of babies and their families throughout the world.
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:
