    Why are Avent teats and soothers made of silicon instead of latex?

    Published on 01 February 2024

    The advantages of Silicone compared to Latex:

    • Highly transparent, for a natural and hygienic aspect
    • Suitable for people with a latex allergy
    • Silicone rubber is more durable than latex rubber
    • Sturdy - hard for baby to bite through
    • Tasteless and odourless - makes breast feeding compatibility easier. Latex smells and tastes of rubber, and can cause the baby to reject mum's breast
    • Can be sterilised using boiling water, steam or cold water method
    • Microwave resistant and dishwasher-proof
