About MAM
MAM Babyartikel GesmbH was founded in Vienna in 1976 by plastics engineer Peter Röhrig and develops and produces baby products such as pacifiers, baby bottles, training cups, breastfeeding accessories, dental care products and electric sterilizers. The products are created in collaboration with more than 30 medical partners and are made from carefully selected materials such as polypropylene, SkinSoft silicone, borosilicate glass and natural rubber (latex). Production takes place with 90 % of product parts from Austria; 95 % of all MAM products are manufactured in Europe. The majority of products are assembled at the Vaskeresztes site in Hungary, while latex processing is concentrated at the Thai sites Hat Yai and Kabinburi. The R&D center is located in Siegendorf, and the headquarters with marketing and product development is in Vienna. MAM products are distributed in 60 countries on five continents.
