About Silicone

Our Commitment to Safer Choices
At Pumpkin Products, we believe that safety starts with responsibility. That’s why every item we make is crafted from 100% food-grade silicone—free from fillers, BPA, and harmful additives. We take quality seriously, and all of our products are third-party tested to meet or exceed U.S. (CPSIA, FDA) and European (CE, EN) safety standards.

Understanding Our Silicone Standards
Not all silicone is created equal. At Pumpkin Products, we use two types of food-safe silicone: FDA-grade and LFGB-grade—both safe, but with different strengths.

FDA-Grade Silicone
Approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, this silicone meets safety standards for everyday food contact.

LFGB-Grade Silicone
A European standard that’s even more rigorous, LFGB-grade silicone undergoes additional testing to ensure it can handle repeated use without breaking down—ideal for items that go in your baby’s mouth.

We thoughtfully choose which grade to use based on each product’s purpose, and you can always find this information clearly listed on our product pages.

Why LFGB-Grade for Certain Products?
We reserve LFGB-grade silicone for items that need to go the extra mile—like teethers, pacifiers, and food feeders. These products are designed to withstand lots of love (and chewing), and LFGB-grade silicone gives them the durability they need.

Here’s why we use both:

Smart Pricing
LFGB-grade silicone is more costly, so to keep our products budget-friendly, we use FDA-grade silicone for non-mouth-contact items where added toughness isn’t required.

Both Are Safe
Rest easy—both FDA and LFGB silicone grades are fully safe for your little ones. Our priority is using the right material in the right place, always with safety as our guide.

Every product from Pumpkin Products is thoughtfully made, carefully tested, and backed by our commitment to safe, responsible design.
