Project Brief
FUTUREMED F8 Breast Pump combines traditional Chinese culture with modern industrial design. Drawing inspiration from ancient explorations into the profound symbolism of roundness, as well as the tangible and abstract concepts of the Stone Age, its design reflects perpetual vitality and robust durability.
Functionally, FUTUREMED F8 Breast Pump excels as a reliable and versatile companion for nursing mothers. It offers four modes, each with multiple suction levels and frequencies to meet individual needs. The integrated dual-pump dual-valve system allows mothers to choose the most convenient and comfortable pumping method for their needs—whether it's focusing on one breast at a time or maximizing efficiency by pumping both breasts at once. Moreover, its ultra-quiet operation, night light, and countdown timer ensure a truly hassle-free experience for nursing mothers in any environment or personal situation.
Project Innovation/Need
In the maternal and infant care market, the demand for breast pumps has evolved beyond mere functionality to prioritize safety, comfort, and design aesthetics. Responding to this trend, FUTUREMED F8 Breast Pump integrates traditional Chinese philosophy with modern industrial design. Focusing on the philosophy of roundness, the breast pump features a sleek, rounded shape that reduces sharp edges, providing a gentle and intimate feel while preventing potential injury. By optimizing the curvature transitions between components, the breast pump presents a sleek appearance and ensures ease of use.
For enhanced practicality, FUTUREMED F8 Breast Pump introduces four specialized modes—stimulation, expression, deep suction, and bionic—each offering adjustable levels and frequencies to cater to individual needs. The integrated dual-pump dual-valve system allows mothers to choose the most convenient and comfortable pumping method as needed, whether focusing on one breast at a time or maximizing efficiency by pumping both breasts simultaneously. More thoughtfully, the breast pump operates ultra-quietly, complemented by added conveniences like a night light and a countdown timer. These features support the lactation journey with elegance and ease, ensuring a hassle-free experience for nursing mothers in any environment or personal situation.
Design Challenge
To stand out in the competitive maternal and infant care market, this design had to address a key challenge: boosting brand recognition and emotionally resonating with users, all while remaining universally adaptable. To this end, the design team adopted the philosophy of roundness, combining the life-affirming beauty celebrated in Eastern culture with sleek modern industrial design. The result is the FUTUREMED F8 Breast Pump—a product that embodies the symbolism of harmony and vitality while maintaining its adaptability to the global market.
Safety and comfort were also prioritized in the design. Four specialized modes (each offering multiple adjustable levels and frequencies) and an integrated dual-pump dual-valve system greatly improve pumping safety and comfort. Further enhanced with its lightweight design and optimized curvature transitions between components, FUTUREMED F8 Breast Pump not only meets nursing mothers' practical needs but also elevates their experiences with aesthetic elegance.
Sustainability
FUTUREMED F8 Breast Pump demonstrates an exceptional commitment to sustainability. The product is made from safe and non-toxic PPSU material, with a recycling rate of up to 95% and a production carbon footprint 20% lower than that of conventional plastics. This ensures reduced environmental impact from the source. After 10,000 usage tests, its durability far exceeds industry averages, extending the product's lifespan and further minimizing resource waste. Additionally, the brand actively participates in environmental initiatives, establishing a "trade-in" program that has successfully recycled 50,000 old devices, and pledges to reduce carbon emissions by an additional 5,000 tons by 2030. These measures not only provide users with an efficient and durable experience but also actively promote environmental protection, showcasing the brand's unwavering dedication to sustainable development.
