What to know about breast pumps
Welpr focuses on the materials that come into contact with your breast milk. Since breast milk goes directly to your baby, the parts that touch it — flanges, valves, tubing, and collection bottles — need to be made from safe, food-grade materials free from problematic plastics and chemicals.
- The highest-priority parts are those that directly touch milk: flanges, connectors, valves, membranes, and collection containers.
- Breast pumps are used frequently, sometimes multiple times a day, which increases the importance of clean materials.
Review the pump you already have
Check the materials listed on your breast pump's packaging, manual, or the manufacturer's website. Look specifically at what the milk-contact parts are made from. Welpr prioritizes pumps with food-grade silicone parts and glass or BPA-free, phthalate-free, PVC-free collection bottles.
- Look for labels or product pages that clearly state "BPA-free," "phthalate-free," "PVC-free," and "food-grade silicone" for all milk-contact components.
- If the brand doesn't disclose what materials are used in the pump parts, that's a reason to look more closely — transparency is a key part of Welpr's standards.
Use your current pump more safely
Even if your pump isn't perfect, a few simple habits can reduce what ends up in your milk. How you clean, store, and handle pump parts matters just as much as the materials themselves.
- Replace worn or cloudy plastic parts regularly, since scratched or degraded plastic can break down more easily — and never microwave plastic pump parts or bottles.
- If your collection bottles are standard plastic, transfer milk to glass or safer storage containers as soon as possible after pumping.
Choose a cleaner breast pump
When shopping for a new pump or replacement parts, prioritize food-grade silicone for all milk-contact components. For collection bottles, glass is the gold standard, but BPA-free, phthalate-free, and PVC-free plastics are a solid alternative when glass isn't practical.
- Look for pumps from brands that clearly list every material used in milk-contact parts — if they don't disclose it, skip it.
