About Brand
Pigeon Corporation is a renowned Japanese manufacturer of baby care products. The company has been operating for over 60 years, releasing millions of different products during this time. Almost from the very beginning of its activity, Pigeon launched the production of feeding bottles, which were distinguished by a wide neck. At the same time, the company began to create high-quality nipples. During the simulation, specialists carefully studied the physiological characteristics of infants and observed the feeding process. They drew attention to the wave-like movements of the tongue when the baby sucks mom's breasts. After long experiments, a unique and incomparable Pigeon bottle was created.
All Pigeon products are thoroughly tested and tested for functionality. The company owns a research center in which the best specialists develop new products that can facilitate the care of young children.

Pigeon bottles are the best in the world!
As close as possible to natural processes - this is what Pigeon Corporation strives for. Caring for the health of the baby and its mother, product developers carefully study the stages of development of the baby, its reflexes, and especially breathing during feeding.
Pigeon Bottle is a unique development with perfect quality. All nipples are made of soft and hypoallergenic silicone of double thickness. This material does not deform even with prolonged use. Silicone nipples provide smooth movements of the baby’s mouth.
The surface of the nipple is matte. The lips do not stick and easily glide on the surface.
Nipple design
All Pigeon nipples are wide in shape with a tapered tip and a small hole for fluid to flow out. The baby sucks slowly and easily, as with breastfeeding.
The tip of the nipples is slightly extended. This form does not allow it to stick together when squeezing the gums.
Since the baby can swallow air during sucking, a special small hole is provided in the design of the nipple on the edge of the base. It performs a ventilation anti-collic function.
The design of the Pigeon nipples stimulates the baby's natural sucking movements, which consist of the following stages of breastfeeding:
- Capture and holding lips of the areola of the mother's nipple. When the baby is applied to the chest, it opens its mouth wide and captures the nipple along with the areola. The baby’s sucking force is so great that the nipple fits tightly to the sucking hole throughout the entire feeding period, the space in the baby’s mouth.
- The wave-like movements of the tongue are unique frictions that provide milk extraction from the breast. The language is virtually motionless, only its surface performs undulating actions.
- Swallowing milk. During sucking, the back of the tongue encourages milk to enter the esophagus. It is important that this process does not interfere with the normal breathing of the baby.
The Pigeon bottle allows you to reproduce natural processes while maintaining close contact between the mother and the baby.
