Moderate Exposure Risk — Why This Product Category Matters

Babies and young children are the most vulnerable population to chemical exposure. Their skin is more permeable, their developing organs are more susceptible to disruption, and they spend more time on floors where chemicals settle. Plastics in baby products — bottles, pacifiers, teethers, toys — are in direct contact with the most vulnerable population.

Why We Rated It This Way

MAM's pacifiers have a silicone nipple (safer than rubber) and BPA-free polypropylene shield. A reasonable choice for parents who use pacifiers. Natural rubber pacifiers (Natursutten) are an alternative for those avoiding all synthetic materials.
