Over 20 years on the market

Over two decades on the market, mums have trusted Silverette’s original silver cups, which were developed in partnership with the University Hospital of Padua, Italy.

Silverette was inspired by an age-old method of alleviating sore nipples with silver. Our product has brought joy to thousands of mothers and aided them on their breastfeeding path.

How do they work?

Silverette® cups are made from 925 pure silver. Silver cups have been used for centuries because of the antiseptic qualities of silver. The theory can be traced to the Ag ion which is able to precipitate the bacterial protoplasm proteins, this complex Ag/proteins continues to exercise a methyl zing action. Silver forms insoluble complexes with the deoxyribonucleic (DNA) and ribonucleic (RNA) acids which explain the antibacterial action.

Silverette® cups have been on the market for over 20 years and are sold worldwide in over 29 countries.

How to wear and use your Silverette® cups?

Leave a few drops of breast milk in each cup after each breastfeeding session. Then place the cups directly over the nipple, similar to a cupping glass. You can wear them under your bra and use them with breast pads.

If you feel that your baby may be bothered by any milk debris, remove the silver cups and gently rinse your nipples. Do not use together with any other nipple treatments as this may compromise the effectiveness of the cups.
