Imalac, Inc. careers

Imalac is an advanced FemTech start-up working on its second-generation product that is positioned to revolutionize the breast pump market. Imalac’s patented innovations will be an invaluable and profitable addition to a large and growing breastfeeding market.

In 2016, Imalac was founded by a small team of women intent on improving on the breast pump which uses suction alone to express milk from the breast of a woman. This technique has been proven inefficient in numerous studies, and lactation professionals world-wide recommend massaging the breast to improve many parameters considered measurements of breastfeeding success.

Nurture 2.0 is a patented, technologically advanced, nursing and pumping bra with an integrated, detachable breast massage system designed to simulate hand expression. Nurture helps to express breast milk by massaging from the back to the front of the breast in a progressive motion and when used in combination with a standard breast pump, provides the following benefits:
- Increased volume of expressed milk
- Increased caloric content of expressed milk
- Decreased pumping time
- Decreased occurrence of clogged milk ducts and mastitis
- Relief from breast engorgement

Nurture 2.0 Plus has the same advantages and function as Nurture 2.0 with the addition of a breast pump integrated into the same wearable system. The rhythm of the breast pump and massage are synchronized to replicate a baby's natural suckling pattern and the act of hands-on pumping.
