A breast pump, a medical apparatus, facilitates the extraction of breast milk from lactating mothers. Primarily utilized by working women, these devices enable the continuation of breastfeeding while managing work commitments.
There are two primary categories of breast pumps: open system and closed system. Closed system breast pumps are equipped with a milk barrier, preventing milk from spilling or leaking into the pump mechanism. Conversely, open system breast pumps lack this barrier. Breast pump technologies encompass manual, battery-powered, and electric variants. These pumps serve various applications, catering to both personal use and hospital settings.

Increased health consciousness is expected to propel the growth of the batter and breader premixes market in the near future. Health consciousness reflects individuals' awareness and concern for their well-being, influencing their food choices.

For instance, in May 2023, the Office for National Statistics reported that UK healthcare expenditure reached approximately $354.88 billion (£283 billion) in 2022, indicating a slight increase in health-related spending. As consumers become more health-conscious, they are likely to seek out healthier cooking options, which can drive demand for quality batter and breader premixes that cater to these preferences. This trend is expected to positively impact the market as more people look for flavorful yet nutritious food options.
