In-Depth Review
Handcrafted Safety from Italy
Natursutten has set the gold standard for eco-friendly pacifiers for over a decade. Unlike conventional pacifiers made from silicone or plastic blends, these are crafted from 100% natural rubber tapped from Hevea trees. This unique one-piece construction eliminates joints or cracks where bacteria can accumulate, providing a level of hygiene that traditional multi-piece pacifiers cannot achieve.
Botanical Sourcing and Production
The rubber used is sourced from responsibly managed forests, ensuring that the natural ecosystem is preserved. Each pacifier is handcrafted in Italy following strict European safety standards. Because they are made from a natural material, they are slightly softer than silicone, mimicking the feel of a mother's breast more closely, which helps reduce 'nipple confusion' in breastfed infants.
- No BPA, nitrosamines, PVC, or phthalates
- Biodegradable and compostable
- One-piece design for maximum hygiene
- Available in Orthodontic and Rounded shapes

"Our goal was to create a product that was as close to nature as possible, eliminating the chemicals commonly found in baby products while supporting sustainable forestry."
The shield features a unique ventilation system that prevents skin irritation and rashes around the mouth. Natural rubber is also remarkably durable and elastic, meaning it can withstand the pressure of developing teeth better than many synthetic alternatives. When the pacifier reaches the end of its life, it can be composted, returning to the earth rather than sitting in a landfill for centuries.
