The electric breast pump for gentle expression
Unlike a manual breast pump, this electric pump does the work for you. You can relax and enjoy a moment of peace.
Our electric breast pump mamivac® LACTIVE is a true all-rounder. It helps with occasional pumping as well as regular use. Especially for medical reasons (e. g. mastitis, sore nipples, milk stasis, or insufficient milk production), our electric breast pump has proven its worth. Thanks to its compact design, you remain mobile at all times. Despite its size, the LACTIVE is just as powerful as a hospital-grade pump.
The correct breast shield size
To express breast milk gently and efficiently, a vacuum must form in the breast shield. Therefore, having the correct fit of the breast shield is essential.
For our mamivac® LACTIVE, suction kits are available in three different sizes: S (20 mm), L (28 mm), and XL (36 mm). It’s important to ensure the correct size is chosen and the breast shield fits properly.
To determine the right size, the mamivac® Mamillometer can be downloaded. When printing, make sure to keep the original size and avoid adjusting it to fit the page.
