Ecobub Meshies are stretch-fit nipple shields made from TGA approved (TGA 474534), food-grade silicone, designed to support mothers with breastfeeding during the first six weeks after birth. They are durable, reusable and offer an alternative to fixed-form shields.
Clean Ingredients / Materials
Made from excellent, non-toxic materials. High-quality, TGA-approved food-grade silicone, free from BPA and phthalates. Includes a reusable silicone pouch.
Ethical Practices
Ecobub manufactures Meshies, recyclable plastic wrappers and core packaging components in Australia, enabling shorter supply chains and close quality oversight. Its Australian manufacturing partner operates under internationally recognised ISO quality management standards. The core material is BPA/BPS and phthalate free, food-grade silicone sourced through established medical-grade supply channels for traceability and quality. The brand is female-founded and female-led, supports equitable participation in STEM and prioritises respectful collaboration, fair compensation and flexible arrangements for working parents and caregivers.
Sustainable Practices
Ecobub supports breastfeeding, the most sustainable way to feed a newborn, by providing Meshies designed for repeated use during the first six weeks after birth, helping reduce reliance on the formula feeding market, which generates significant CO₂ emissions and water use. Packaging uses recycled and recyclable cardboard printed with soy-based inks, includes a reusable silicone pouch and is manufactured in Australia to support local industry and minimise transport emissions. Products are designed with circular principles for durability, reusability and low impact.
Social Impact
Ecobub supports mothers during early breastfeeding by designing products that help women continue breastfeeding, contributing to improved maternal confidence, infant health outcomes and reduced financial pressure on families. The female-founded and female-led company intentionally employs women across STEM, design, legal and digital roles, offering fair compensation and flexible working arrangements for mothers and caregivers. Ecobub also provides educational content and transparent communication to empower parents with evidence-based information on infant feeding.
Product Reviews by Experts
The MESHIES take a genuinely innovative approach to nipple shield design – perforated and a stretch-fit silicone that morphs to different nipple shapes during a feed rather than requiring a fixed size, which removes one of the biggest barriers to shields that actually work (years back when I tried these they were so inflexible). The TGA-registered, 100% food-grade BPA/BPS-free silicone is a non-negotiable in this category, and the fact that it is durable and reusable makes it a far more considered alternative to the single-use options most mothers are handed. Designed by breastfeeding mums – that shows, mums who need these would love this brand! The Australian manufacturing focus is a real differentiator because that equals shorter supply chains and supporting local smaller business. The female-led team and female-forward STEM workforce demonstrate that this is not just product design, it is a values-led business that understands breastfeeding mums need simple, healthy and functional products to support them at their most vulnerable times.
I really liked how soft, thin and flexible these nipple shields are. They felt comfortable to wear without being bulky, and the stretch-fit design made them easy to use. The reusable silicone storage pouch is also a practical addition for keeping them clean and protected between uses. I appreciated the brand’s commitment to Australian manufacturing, recyclable packaging and supporting breastfeeding through thoughtful product design. It’s also encouraging to see a female-founded business focused on supporting mothers while making conscious choices around local production and sustainability.
Beautiful silicone cover to wear during breastfeeding to protect sore nipples. As a female-founded and female-led business they deliberately engage women.
