Why Use Junobie Breastmilk Storage Bags? 

As part of our sustainable initiatives, we said goodbye to single-use plastic breastmilk bags earlier this year and have chosen not to stock brands using oxo-biodegradable plastic.

There is evidence to suggest that Oxo-biodegradable plastic does not biodegrade completely as their manufacturers claim. Instead, the additives contained in the plastic react with oxygen and break down into microplastics which may persist in the environment.

Knowing the harmful effects of single-use plastic, we partnered with Junobie to bring you these amazing space-saving and eco-friendly reusable breastmilk storage bags!

Here are some important things to know about Junobie milk bags,

•       The reusable milk storage bags are freezer, dishwasher, food, and heat safe.

•       They have a special sliding lock to secure the milk while you're on the go.

As seen in Vogue, Junobie is helping modern-day millennial mums un-plastic their breastmilk, and provide them with a more eco-friendly and cost-effective option to collect and store their liquid gold.

FAQs On Junobie Breastmilk Storage Bags

How do I fill my breast milk storage bag?

Junobie bags are easy to fill thanks to their self-standing capabilities. Simply slide off the slider, squeeze the mouth of the bag to ensure it is open wide and gently tip your milk into the storage bag before sealing shut. If you are transferring expressed breastmilk from a bottle after using an electric breast pump, try using your breast shield as a funnel to prevent any spills.

How do I defrost breast milk storage bags?

It depends on how quickly you need the milk you are defrosting. If you’ve got a bit of time, you can simply remove the bag from the freezer and either leave it on the bench or transfer the frozen milk to a bottle/cup then leave that on the bench to thaw. If you’re in more of a hurry, we recommend popping the bag (sealed!) in a bowl of warm water to speed up the defrosting process. It isn’t recommended to defrost breastmilk using a microwave.

How can I clean my breast milk storage bags?

We recommend cleaning Junobie Breast Milk Storage Bags using warm, soapy water and the Junobie Silicone Cleaning Brush which allows you to get into the corners of the bag to remove any leftover milk. You can also clean your bags in the dishwasher (top rack only and without the plastic slider).
