NUK for Nature

Naturally sustainable.

Because sustainable is naturally better. That is why every NUK for Nature product is made from sustainable materials (mass balance process*). These include sustainable plastic*, natural rubber and sustainable silicone*. The packaging made from 100% paper of sustainable origin can be fully recycled. And to make the CO2 footprint even smaller, being climate friendly is at the heart of everything, from the raw material to production with green electricity. NUK for Nature. Sustainable right from the start.

* These sustainable materials are linked to 100% natural raw materials. Compliant with the mass balance approach and certified by ISCC PLUS (plastic) and REDcert2 (silicone), or natural rubber latex.

Sustainable materials, natural rubber, mass balance processes ...

Our most important information for all those who would like to know the details.

Sustainable materials

We use renewable raw materials for our sustainable NUK for Nature products. For the firm parts, we use sustainable plastic*.

The soft teats are made of pure natural rubber or sustainable silicone**.

* This plastic is a material that is 100% traceable to renewable raw materials through the ISCC PLUS certified mass balance process. ** This sustainable silicone is a material that is 100% traceable to natural raw materials through the REDcert2 certified mass balance process.

Sustainable plastic

The sustainable plastic can be traced back to 100% renewable raw materials: the firm plastics through the ISCC PLUS certified mass balance procedure and the soft silicone through the REDcert2 certified mass balance procedure.

The production of conventional plastic is petroleum based. New technologies make it possible to replace fossil petroleum with renewable raw materials. We use pine oil, a by-product of forestry, bio-methanol from grass cuttings, or oils that are needed in food manufacturing and reused for plastic production. For every gram of plastic we need for our NUK for Nature products, we invest 100% in plastic made from these renewable raw materials.

Mass balance process in a nutshell

It is important to us to make our NUK for Nature products as resource-friendly, environmentally conscious and climate-friendly as possible.

That is why we ensure that for every gram of plastic we use in production, the same amount of plastic is produced from renewable raw materials. And it is fully traceable. This sustainable material replaces plastic that, without our commitment, would have been produced from fossil oil.

This is the idea of the mass balance process. It aims to make plastic production more sustainable as a whole. Not just a single product.

By mass balancing our plastic, we reduce the overall consumption of fossil raw materials and make the greatest possible contribution to climate protection.

Naturally natural rubber

Natural rubber is a little miracle of nature. The pure natural product made from the milk of the rubber tree feels wonderfully warm and soft in a baby's mouth, and it is also particularly flexible. That is why natural rubber or natural rubber latex - as the experts say - is an ideal material for soothers. And at the same time, it is a renewable, sustainable raw material.

Guaranteed free from harmful substances and harmless

Every NUK product is manufactured to the highest quality standards, using high-quality, safe ingredients. Of course, this also means: free from BPA and other harmful substances.

Paper instead of plastic.

NUK for Nature also means that sustainability does not stop at the product material. That is why we pack all our NUK for Nature products plastic-free, in 100% FSC-certified paper. In other words, paper from the sustainable forestry sector that can be easily recycled in the paper bin.

Green electricity, energy efficiency, Made in Germany ... because these are not just empty words for us, let us explain what is behind them:

Renewable energies

Every kilowatt hour of electricity we acquire as a company is green electricity from renewable sources. And because we make sure that all environmental standards required by law are met, we are allowed to carry the ÖKOSTROM seal.

Energy efficiency

When it comes to energy efficiency, it is not enough to be enthusiastic about the idea of saving electricity. That is why, since 2012, we have voluntarily committed ourselves to keeping energy consumption as low as possible. We pursue this goal with a standardized energy management system (ISO 50001).

Made in Germany

All NUK FOR NATURE products are Made in Germany.

But they are even more than that: namely "Made in Zeven". And that means manufactured at our factory premises in Lower Saxony. Between meadows and forests. To make it even greener here, we planted a meadow orchard with 50 fruit trees at the beginning of 2020. Our way of helping to create more habitat for bees.
