Buying the best baby bottle can be stressful since there are countless options to choose from. The most popular styles are glass, plastic, stainless steel, and silicone. Silicone is the rarest of the group but is gaining the most popularity. As a producer of many silicone baby products we would like to share with you why we love using silicone and think it's the future of baby gear.
- The best part about silicone baby bottles, is how long they last. Unlike glass bottles the silicone does not easily break and due to the grip, it is even easier to hold. If the bottle does drop, the bottle won't shatter or be a hazard for your baby.
- Silicone is much easier to clean than plastic, glass, and stainless steel. It is dishwasher safe, and because it is flexible, handwashing is even easier. Keep your baby bottle clean, in a simple way with silicone.
- One of the most important aspects of silicone is how safe it is. For our products, we use medical grade, BPA, PVC, and Phthalate free silicone. Safety is the most important thing when it comes to creating baby products, especially bottles. Silicone is great at keeping nasty chemicals away from baby's tummy. The texture is also soft which keeps feeding time comfortable and relaxed.
Silicone is the new and improved way to make baby bottles because of its unique properties. The gentlebottle is especially unique because of the off-centered nipple which helps with air-flow, and its anti-colic holes. Olababy is silicone obsessed and we hope you all will soon feel the same way. In the meantime check out our new GentleBottle in three color options.
