NUK is a subsidiary of MAPA Rubber & Plastics Engineering GmbH, which specializes in NUK maternity and baby products, rubber gloves and condoms, and with advanced latex production technology, MAPA's three major products are firmly in a leading position in Germany, and are currently rated as "German Standard: Brand of the Century" as a symbol of German industry in the new edition of the encyclopedia.
NUK is an acronym for the German Naturlich und Kiefergecht, which means Nature and Orthodontics, and was founded by Doctor of Dentistry and Doctor of Medicine. With its orthodontic-shaped nozzle and anti-colic air system, it has been certified by dental institutions such as the International Foundation for Dental Health, the Research Institute of the Russian Federation, the French Alliance for Oral Health, and the British Foundation for Dental Health, with 93% of paediatricians and 87% of midwives recommending NUK products.
It wasn't until the 90s of the last century that NUK really launched children's water cups, covering two categories: learning and training cups and sports cups, among which the cups with wide mouth design and the spouts of feeding bottles can be exchanged or upgraded at will, so as to achieve a multi-purpose cup and strong practicality, and the product price is between 68-132 yuan.
The high level of safety is the strength of the NUK children's water bottles. At present, many brands only pay attention to the safety of the bottle body, and use PE and other plastic materials with a slightly lower safety degree at the bottle cap or straw, which are not resistant to high temperatures. All NUK products are made of PP and silicone, which are highly safe and can be sterilized by high heat, making them safer and more hygienic to use. Its leak-proof learning training straw cup is to add 2 ventilation holes at the straw to allow the baby to ventilate normally when drinking water, which plays a role in preventing flatulence.
NUK's sports water bottle series won the iF Design Award in Germany in 2013, the Mom's Choice Award for Outstanding Product Design in the United States, and the German Design Award nomination in 2014. The sports water bottle series is portable, leak-proof and drop-resistant, and the cup body comes with a buckle, which can be buckled on the bag or pants, so you don't need to worry about water leakage and breakage, and you can go out easily. The products are available in duck beak cups and direct drinking cups, and duck beak cups are also available in soft and hard duck beaks. Among them, the soft duck bill is more comfortable to use, and can protect the gums, the hard duck bill emphasizes the bite resistance and durability, all support the replacement of the pacifier or pull out the pacifier into a direct drinking cup, a cup can be used in primary school, 6 months baby to kindergarten children can find their own sports kettle.
The NUK Wide-Mouth PP Dual-Purpose Cup is another award-winning hit within the brand, available in a wide range of Disney styles, all of which are duckbill cups with their own scales, which can be used as bottles and drinking glasses, and have a smooth and comfortable grip, suitable for babies from 6 months old.
The only downside to NUK is that, with the exception of the leak-proof learning training straw cups, which use a rotating lid to pop out the straw, all products have a bottle-style lid with a bottle-style cap, which must be operated with both hands, and the ease of use is slightly lost.
