Many are puzzled by why the same brand of baby bottles can have varying prices. To explain this, mothers need to distinguish between local and imported baby bottles.
Characteristics of local and imported baby bottles
Baby bottles come in two types: imported and local. Local products are manufactured for the domestic market, undergoing rigorous inspections to meet strict standards. All documentation, usage instructions, and related papers are printed in the local language. In contrast, imported baby bottles are designed for other countries, incorporating improvements to align with the jaw structure and habits of those consumers.
An exemplary case like Pigeon baby bottle produced in Thailand applies modern Japanese formulas. It has two variants: a local line tailored for Japanese consumers and an imported line for other countries. The latter includes instructions printed entirely in English for user convenience.
Distinguishing between local and imported baby bottles.
In essence, both types of baby bottles are guaranteed to be safely manufactured with BPA-free materials, ensuring no impact on the health of newborns and users. However, there are still some differences that mothers can distinguish as follows:
- Local baby bottles are softer, smoother, often not packaged in boxes but simply placed in plastic bags.
- The nipple structure of local brands is also softer, closely resembling a mother's nipple, making it easier for babies to adapt during the weaning process.
- Local baby bottles typically mark milk levels with increments of 50, 100, 150, while imported ones may use units like 1, 2, 3, 4, equivalent to 50, 100, 150.
This explains why the same brand of baby bottles, especially local variants, is often pricier and preferred by many for their children. Some mothers even note that after trying various imported baby bottles, their babies experienced discomfort and frequent spitting up. However, upon switching to local baby bottles, these issues significantly reduced, and the babies were more content during feedings.
