What they do

Problem

Hospitals waste nursing time and breast milk due to freezing/defrosting workflows and discard rules for stored human milk in NICUs.

Solution

A condensing device converts breast milk into a fine, immunologically active powder that can be reconstituted on demand by adding water.

Who it's for

NICU staff and hospital milk handling teams who prepare and serve human milk to premature and hospitalized infants.
