We are pleased to announce that Milkify is now officially a NEC Society Champion. Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC) is inflammation of the intestine, leading to bacterial invasion and severe cellular damage/death. Up to 5% of preterm infants are affected by NEC, with a mortality rate reaching as high as 50%. Tragically, Black infants are 2.5x more likely to die of NEC. The NEC Society is a nonprofit organization dedicated to building a world without NEC through research, advocacy, and education. Champions are industry and nonprofit organizations who support the NEC Society’s vision of a world without NEC. We are committed to helping drive NEC research, education, and advocacy, and are passionate about the work the NEC Society and others are doing to save the lives of medically complex infants.

We freeze-dry your breast milk. Longer storage. More convenience. Better infant nutrition.
About us
Milkify freeze-dries breast milk as a service for longer storage, more convenience, and better infant nutrition. Freeze-dried breast milk powder can be stored for 3+ years without refrigeration. Freeze-drying is superior to freezing when it comes to preserving the milk's vital nutrients, immune factors, and probiotics. By solving the storage and transportation problems associated with breast milk, we empower parents to continue feeding their little ones the best possible food, on their own terms.

Take the one minute virtual tour of the Milkify facility! 🎥 Milkify is the first FDA-Registered, GMP-Certified breast milk freeze-drying facility in the world. We're proud to have set the highest standards in safety and quality for our nascent industry since day one. Our patented contact-free process removes the water from breast milk without ever allowing it to come into contact with our equipment. That means we never pool breast milk on trays for processing, and we don't use bowls, scoops, or other utensils to package the breast milk powder. But don't just take our word for it - tour the Milkify facility on the new 'Safety' page on our website and see where the freeze-drying magic happens! https://lnkd.in/gtWr4hed
