About Dr. Brown’s
Dr. Brown's grew from a baby bottle designed by a doctor in 1996 and patented the next year, with an internal vent system built to reduce colic, gas, and spit-up, and it has since become the bottle brand most American parents already know; the company cites an industry survey ranking it the number 1 pediatrician-recommended bottle in the US. Beyond bottles it makes pacifiers, teethers, sippy cups, and sterilizers, and its HappyPaci is a one-piece pacifier molded entirely from silicone. The brand's stated focus is happy feeding and healthy babies rather than sustainability, and it publishes no environmental certifications. It is mass-market and priced that way, and its core bottle line is still mostly plastic, with glass offered as a smaller collection.
