Sterile contents, even if you open the lid
This advanced steriliser makes sure you always have a sterile bottle on hand by keeping contents sterile for 24 hours. It will automatically re-sterilise the contents every 6 hours. With the handy pause button you can also add or remove items at any time and the 24-Hour Steriliser will automatically re-sterilise the contents..

Easy to use - Just add water once a day
Aside from its advanced functionality, the 24-Hour Steriliser is simple and straightforward to use. Just add water, load the steriliser with your bottles, breast pump or accessories and select the mode. Mode 1 lets you run a single sterilising cycle, which is useful when you want to take all the items out in one go. Mode 2 is for 24-hour sterilising, which is very convenient when you want to leave the items in the steriliser overnight or when you want to take out only one bottle for every feed. No matter what your routine will be, this steriliser will make the daily sterilising chore easier..

Keeps you informed - Advanced digital display and sound alerts
The display and sound alerts tell you when sterilisation is complete and how long items will remain sterile. The display also lets you know when you have filled the steriliser with too little or too much water, so you can always be sure that sterilising has been completed accurately and reliably..

Fast - Contents are sterile and ready to use in approx. 6 min.
The advantage of steam sterilisation is that it is much quicker (and safer) than the traditional method of boiling bottles in a pan on the stove. The 24-Hour Steriliser takes as little as 6 minutes to sterilise a full load of 6 bottles, teats and dome caps..

Large capacity - Holds up to six Philips AVENT Bottles
The steriliser has a smart design that takes up little space in your kitchen, yet still fits six Philips AVENT Bottles or two Philips AVENT Breast Pumps. The two baskets inside can clip together to form a dishwasher basket, which makes pre-cleaning of smaller items like soothers and teats much easier..

Effective sterilisation - Extra protection through natural steam sterilisation
Sterilising is all about protecting your baby from particularly harmful milk bacteria until his immune system is strong enough. The Philips AVENT Steriliser uses the hospital method of steam sterilisation, which is quick, easy and efficient, with no chemicals involved.

 

Sterilisation refers to any process that effectively kills or eliminates transmissible agents such as fungi, bacteria, viruses, spore forms, etc. from a bottle surface or breast pump for example. It is essential that during their first year, all baby bottles, teats, soothers ect should be sterilised because at this time babies are at their most vulnerable to viruses, bacteria and parasitic infections which can cause illnesses from a mild case of thrush to a serious condition of gastroenteritis which can cause vomiting, diarrhoea and dehydration. Before sterilisation was standard practice, many babies died unnecessarily as a result.

Sterilisation can be achieved through application of heat or chemicals, but most commonly with steam for baby bottles and accessories. Electric steam sterilising is based on hospital methods and is quick and efficient and usually available in a compact microwave variety or a larger model which plugs directly into the mains. Their main advantage is that there is no smell or taste involved and the items inside remain sterile for a period (see model for time period) if the lid is kept on.

Although babies cannot live in a germ free environment, using a steriliser can reduce the risks open to small babies.

Pregnancy and early parenthood is an exciting and challenging time, when it's good to know there is expert advice on hand to help take care of you and your baby. Since 1984, AVENT has been designing and manufacturing products that are inspired by nature and have been developed through extensive research and clinical trials. Now, as part of the Philips Group, the new Philips AVENT will continue to produce innovative solutions that make feeding and caring for your baby's health and safety easier.

Philips AVENT believes that breast feeding is the best method of nutrition for babies and that women should be given as much information and education as possible regarding the benefits of breast milk. Philips AVENT believes that it is every mother’s right to make her own personal decision to how she feeds her baby – bottle, breast or a combination of both - and Philips AVENT will support her in whatever choice she makes.
