Pure Safe Silicone
How did you come up with the idea for this product?
After becoming parents, we spent countless hours researching and worrying about the safety and composition of what we put on and in our children. To our dismay, we found very few products on the market that met our strict safety and purity standards. For instance, we received a silicone bib as a baby shower gift – functionally, it was great, but when stretched it turned white, which is a sign of that the silicone contains fillers. This is referred to as “The Pinch Test” –– if silicone turns white when pinched twisted or pulled, it has fillers. After extensive research on silicone chemistry and production, we created Platinum Pure silicone, which is the silicone we use in our otterlove products. Our silicone is made using an innovative and more expensive process than ordinary silicone, but this process creates no chemical by-products.
