The HEVEA natural nipple shield is carefully designed to accommodate and address special breastfeeding situations, such as latching difficulties, flat nipples, overactive letdowns, and inverted nipples.
Our goal is to help anybody to continue breastfeeding for as long as they choose to while making nursing as convenient as possible for mother and baby. And this nipple shield can be perfect for this!
Hevea's Nipple Shield is made from 100% natural rubber, making it safe, soft and eco-friendly. Completely free of toxic substances like plastic, silicone, PVC, BPA, petroleum, and phthalates.
The nipple head design allows for baby to mimic the natural sucking rhythm, making it easier for babies who are having difficulties latching. These eco-friendly nipple shields are hygienically designed with a one-piece anti-colic design, meaning no joints, cracks or edges for mould to grow in. These nipple shields will fit most breasts.

About the Company
HEVEA is not just a brand; it's a story with its own purpose. The HEVEA story is about how we want to leave fingerprints on the world - a fingerprint showing that we strive to do better, to create a more mindful way of taking care of the planet we leave for future generations.
HEVEA is inquisitive. We test, try and make tangible efforts to link sustainable thinking with aesthetic design. We are constantly developing, and we always allow the best ideas to guide us, even though we seldom know where they are going to lead.
HEVEA is more than what meets the eye. We are innovators in natural rubber, in design, in ways to work together, in processes and in distribution.
HEAVE began as a question
Historically, HEVEA began as a question that needed an answer: how to take care of our children and our planet just a little bit better. That makes everything quite simple for us: we were born of an urge to do better. To show that how we act and live in the world makes a difference to ourselves, and our children - the citizens of tomorrow. The lack of natural options for our future generations and the choices we have to make was what made us turn to Hevea Brasiliensis - natural rubber, and this has formed the basis of our mission and our purpose from the very beginning.
PLASTIC IS PASSE, NATURAL IS NOW
Hevea, or natural rubber, can replace many kinds of plastic. Hevea decomposes naturally and can be reused to make new products. The wood of the tree itself and the rubber are our only self-imposed limitations when it comes to designing and developing new products. However, this hardly feels limiting as we are still getting to know these materials better and better. In all our curiosity, we keep firmly in contact with our roots and our reason for being here: to give you the option of creating a fingerprint that is slightly better than the one we inherited.
Great design & natural materials
Geographically, our mix is unique. While the hevea trees grow mainly in Southeast Asia, and much of our production requires skills and facilities found close to the plantations where the hevea is harvested, our design philosophy is inherently Danish. Unifying the beautiful design with clear functionality is the core of the renowned Danish design tradition, and we stick to this in discovering and developing all that our cherished hevea can offer.
