The wide, flattened teats encourage latching and minimize confusion, making them ideal for bottle, combination, or breast-to-bottle feeding. These bottles feature a newborn flow teat with advanced triple anti-colic valves that reduce air intake and help prevent colic. The patented Flexzone allows the teat to move and flex like a mother's nipple, offering a more natural feed. For convenience, the bottles are self-sterilising: simply add water and microwave for three minutes. The EarthSmart technology ensures the bottles biodegrade in landfill without leaving microplastics behind, offering an eco-friendly disposal option (excluding silicone components). They are also BPA, Latex, and Phthalate-free.

With features like self-sterilizing capabilities and anti-colic valves, these bottles offer convenience and help reduce feeding discomfort. Note that while the bottles are EarthSmart and designed to biodegrade, the silicone components are excluded from this process.
