For generations, mothers have trusted NUK to provide the products that give their babies the healthiest start in life. This trust is a privilege that we take seriously. In everything we do, we keep in mind our responsibility to care for the wellbeing of children around the world.
50 Years of Experience
At NUK, we have a long history of creating products that are safe, effective and backed by scientific research. In 1956, two German dentists developed the NUK orthodontic-shaped pacifier. Its unique shape actually enhances babies’ oral development. And proper oral development can lead to better development overall.
Today, we continue to combine our scientific background with over 50 years of know-how. The result is a full range of products that mothers around the world trust for the health of their babies.
Developed by a Panel of Experts
A company’s responsibility includes being receptive to new developments, talking to experts in the field, and rethinking and optimizing the best products.
This is where the NUK Advisor Panel comes in. We reach out to experts from all over the world, including dentists, pediatricians, midwives, lactation consultants, speech therapists and maternity clinics as well as the true experts - mothers. Our advisors keep us up-to-date on the most current developments in their fields and help us with product development.
It doesn’t stop there. We also conduct ongoing scientific studies within hospitals and medical institutes worldwide. This allows us to be sure that our products are based on current medical knowledge as well as the real-world needs of mother and child.
Integrated R&D and Manufacturing
NUK maintains the highest standards in research and development (R&D) and manufacturing. Most NUK products are developed in our R&D departments in the US and Europe in close cooperation with the NUK Advisor Panel.
Most NUK products are manufactured in NUK-owned and operated factories in the U.S., Germany and Brazil. This allows us to control the raw materials, components and manufacturing processes.
Our experience, medical background and quality standards ensure that our customers – mothers and children – receive products they can trust for life.
