Key Features of the Hegen PCTO 240ml Feeding Bottle
Every single element of the Hegen bottle is engineered with you and your baby in mind. From the one-handed, zero spillage opening and closure, to the built-in anti-colic air venting, to the off-centre silicone teat, the Hegen bottle is designed to enhance the feeding experience and promote parent-child bonding. Hegen products are all designed to work with one another, ensuring hassle-free updates as your child grows and their needs change.
Who Can Use the Hegen Bottle with Medium Flow Teat?
The soft square shape of the Hegen Feeding Bottle has been designed with two purposes in mind. Firstly, it's an easy shape for young babies to grip, encouraging their independence. Secondly, it won't roll away out of reach if you or your kid sets it down on the floor or table.
How Does the Bottle Work with Other Hegen Products?
As well as the medium flow teat, teats with thicker or thinner feeds are available for older or younger children. These will fit onto the same base bottle, and are listed here:
In addition, the bottle can also be paired with a Breast Milk Storage Lid:
This allows the bottle to be converted into an air-tight and leak-proof storage container. As your baby grows these can also be used for storing foods such as baby food, puree, fruits or juices.
Patented Opening System
The revolutionary, one-handed 'PCTO' opening system stands for Press-to-Close, Twist-to-Open. This allows you to conveniently press on or twist off the lid with zero spills and hassle free-handling. That way you can use your other hand to keep your little one out of trouble!
How Does the Feeding Bottle Prevent Milk Aeration and Colic?
Upset tummies and endless crying are often the result of excess air-intake while feeding. Luckily the Hegen bottle features an inbuilt vent which serves to reduce excess air-intake, thereby preventing the oxidisation of precious nutrients and providing you with some much needed peace and quiet!
Unique Teat Design
It can be confusing for babies to make the transition from breast-feeding to bottle feeding, which is why the elliptical-shaped teat mimics a natural breast. Not only is this less bemusing to a hungry new-born, but the soft silicone is gentle on developing teeth and gums. The off-centre design of the teat allows your baby to feed from a more upright position, which reduces the risk of milk back-flow that can lead to mid-ear complications.
Is the Hegen Bottle Suitable for Microwave/Freezer Use?
The bottle is suitable for warming in the microwave so you can easily heat up your baby's milk. Not only this, but you can also keep it in the freezer, ideal for saving pre-prepared breast milk or food for a later date!
How Do I Clean the Bottle with Teat?
The bottle is exceptionally easy to clean, featuring a smooth interior surface, wide bottle opening and minimal parts. The bottle is safe for washing on the top rack of the dishwasher, or with boiling water or steriliser. In addition, the bottle is totally free from potential toxins such as BPA, BPS, PVC and phthalates.
What Are the Benefits of the Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU) Material?
Hegen produces a range of products made from PPSU, or polyphenylsulfone. This food-safe and medical grade material is tough, lightweight and temperature-resistant while the natural amber shade adds a touch of style.
