Pacifiers in silicone or natural rubber?

at Jonas Kold on Jan 19, 2023
Sutter i silikone eller naturgummi?

The difference between natural rubber and silicone pacifiers

Natural rubber pacifiers and silicone pacifiers are both popular choices for children's pacifiers, but they differ in several ways.

Natural rubber pacifiers are made from rubber from the Hevea brasiliensis tree and are a natural product that is both biodegradable and recyclable. They are also hypoallergenic and can be a good choice for children with sensitive mouths or allergies. Natural rubber pacifiers are also flexible and can mold to the child's mouth, which is often most comfortable for the child.

Silicone pacifiers are made from a synthetic material that is very durable and can be used for many years. They are also easy to clean and can be boiled to kill any bacteria. However, silicone pacifiers are industrially manufactured, which is more environmentally burdensome than natural rubber, which is 100% natural.

This is also the main reason why we exclusively sell natural rubber pacifiers here at Naturebaby.

Natural rubber pacifiers are biodegradable

There is also an environmental difference between the two types of pacifiers. Natural rubber pacifiers are biodegradable and can be recycled, while silicone pacifiers are a synthetic product that can take hundreds of years to break down in nature. Additionally, the production of silicone pacifiers is often more energy-intensive than the production of natural rubber pacifiers, which can have negative consequences for the environment.

In the end, the choice between natural rubber pacifiers and silicone pacifiers is a personal choice that depends on your preferences and your child's needs. However, we recommend choosing natural rubber pacifiers as they are ultimately the most environmentally friendly type of pacifier on the market.

Recommendations from the Danish Health Authority

It is also important to remember that children should only use pacifiers for a limited period of time and that it is important to follow the recommendations from the Danish Health Authority regarding pacifier habits. It is also important to regularly replace pacifiers to avoid bacterial growth and to thoroughly clean pacifiers before use.

See our selection of healthy and natural pacifiers made from natural rubber from BIBS and FRIGG.
