Longstanding Recognition Highlights Medela’s Legacy of Trust and Reliability
Medela, the brand trusted by millions of moms worldwide and the #1 breast pump brand used in hospitals1 is honored to be named the #1 Most Trusted Breast Pump brand in the United States2 and Canada3 for 2026 by the BrandSpark Most Trusted® Awards, marking its eighth consecutive year earning the top spot in both countries. Medela was also recognized as the most trusted Breast Pump brand in the United Kingdom4 for the fourth year, reinforcing its global reputation for quality, performance, and reliability.
The BrandSpark Most Trusted® Awards is a premier annual program based on consumer votes that measures brand trust across a wide range of industries. This year’s U.S. awards are based on a national consumer survey of 35,215 U.S. shoppers, representing more than 182,000 brand evaluations across 359 categories. Medela’s eighth consecutive win underscores the brand’s enduring leadership in the breast pump category and its continued ability to earn consumer trust year after year.
"Receiving these honors is deeply meaningful and reflects everything Medela stands for: the trust families place in us and our commitment to continue earning it through meaningful innovation," said Thomas Golücke, CEO. "For eight consecutive years, parents have voted that Medela is the brand they rely on. This is a true honor and testament to the deep relationships we have built with families and healthcare professionals by listening to them, advancing evidence-based research, and transforming those insights into innovations that truly meet their needs."
These awards paint a complete picture of Medela's leadership in breast pump technology: a brand that has spent decades earning consumer confidence, and one that continues to innovate with purpose. By combining hospital-grade expertise, rigorous research, and mom-informed design, Medela remains the brand families can trust at every stage of their feeding journey.
