Our Materials + Safety Standards
At BRAI + CO., safety is at the heart of every product we create. Our mealtime essentials are designed for babies and toddlers using durable, thoughtfully selected materials that are made for everyday family life.
We believe parents should be able to clearly understand what their child’s products are made from, how they are tested, and how to care for them.
Our feeding products are made using 304 stainless steel and food-grade silicone.
We chose these materials because they are durable, practical, easy to clean, and well suited for everyday mealtimes with babies and toddlers.
304 stainless steel is widely used in food-contact products because it is durable, corrosion-resistant, and easy to clean.
Unlike plastic, stainless steel does not absorb food odours or stains and is designed to hold up through repeated everyday use.
Our stainless steel products are paired with silicone where needed for features such as soft-touch grips, protective sleeves, and suction bases.
