Why have you updated the a2 Platinum® range?
At The a2 Milk Company, we are committed to continuously improving our products to support the nutritional needs of formula-fed and mix feeding infants and young children. As part of this commitment, we have updated the a2 Platinum® range with an updated formulation and refreshed packaging.
How do I transition to the updated a2 Platinum® Premium junior milk drink formulation?
You may like to begin the transition with a daytime serve to allow for better monitoring. Start with the new milk drink in the morning, while keeping the familiar milk drink/s in the afternoon or night.
Observe your child's adjustment for 3-5 days. If they adapt well, you can transition fully to the formulation.
When moving to the updated a2 Platinum® range, it’s important to note that the serving guide has been updated and the scoop to water ratio is now 2 scoops to 50mL of water. This change ensures your child continues to receive the nutrition intended for their age when the formula is prepared according to the updated serving guide. To support a smooth transition, always use the scoop provided in the current can and follow the feeding guide and directions for use printed on the can.
If you would like further support with the transition, please contact our a2™ Careline, staffed by Accredited Practising Dietitians on 1800 22 46 32 or contact us here.
What are the updates to the packaging?
Our updated a2 Platinum® range now features a premium straight-wall tin, updated artwork and now includes the scoop in the lid for convenience. Additionally, our 800g can now features 3 QR code traceability. You will find QR code on the base of the can, on top of the foil and on the underside of the foil.
