The breast pads ensure safety in the breastfeeding period and have a calming effect on the skin because of the addition of finest silk. The bourette silk, which the pads are made of, still has the sericin, the silk gum, which is recognisable by the typical silk smell. Bourette silk is nubby and the sericin has an anti-inflammatory and healing effect. Only the best for you.

Brand
Engel Natur is a family run business based in Germany, which has been producing lingerie and clothing for over 80 year. All of their products are made in Germany. Engel Natur specialises in making their clothing from merino wool. 95% of all of the products are certified by the GOTS certificate on or by a IVN Best certificate, which ensures very strict but also fair conditions and well fair to all of their employees.
Their merino products are made solely from sustainably sourced merino wool, which is 'mulesing' free, which means that animals living in their natural habitat were not treated by the cruel mulesing method of having parts of their skin, infected by insects, cut out and needing to deal with the scars by themselves. These kind of practices are already banned and taken care of by the majority of South - American countries, including Argentina, where Engels wool comes from.
In our assortment at SLOW, you can find clothing for babies and for mums like overalls with wooden buttons, hooded jacket, blankets for the smallest ones and even nursing bras for mums.

Care Instructions
You should wash the breast-pads very gently – by hand in lukewarm water. Do not wring or rub wool products, as this could cause felting. Please do not dry in the dryer or on the heater. We recommend squeezing the products out in a towel after the rinsing process, pulling them into shape while they are still wet and drying them flat.
