BURPLE: From Mess to Milestone
Designing
Joy in Parenthood
For parents Will and Amanda Evans, nightly burping sessions with their newborn were filled with spit-ups, laundry, and frustration. Traditional cloths weren’t enough to protect clothes or furniture.
They needed a safer, cleaner way to manage the mess. When Will filed a patent for his concept and turned to LA NPDT, we helped bring it to life through our turnkey product development process tailored for the baby care industry.
From Patent Idea to a Complete Baby Product Launch
We began with a patent drawing and a simple goal, to create a shoulder-mounted burp catcher that actually works. Our product design and engineering teams developed ergonomic shapes, refined materials, and ensured the product met every baby safety requirement.
Multiple prototypes were created and tested using soft, food-grade silicone to balance flexibility, comfort, and spill control. Through user testing and design refinement, Burple evolved into a product that combines safety, ease, and delight for both parent and baby.
Key Design Features:
- Detachable soft fabric liner for gentle contact with baby’s face.
- BPA-free, food-grade silicone that’s hypoallergenic and durable.
- Waterproof and dishwasher-safe body for effortless cleaning.
- Soft internal sponge insert for extra absorption and comfort.
- Portable and lightweight, rolls up easily to fit into diaper bags.
A Turnkey Product Development Success Story
This was more than design, it was a complete turnkey baby product development journey. LA NPDT guided the entire process from idea validation to manufacturing and launch, ensuring every detail aligned with safety, brand vision, and market readiness.
We didn’t just design the product; we helped build a company from scratch.
Our support included everything from the brand name and logo to packaging design, website development, safety testing, photography, video, and digital marketing content.
"From napkin sketch to nationwide sales, turnkey innovation for modern parenting."
Building the Brand: Naming, Identity & Digital Presence
We helped name the product “Burple”, a playful, memorable name that captures both the sound of a burp and the joy of parenting. The branding reflected the values of simplicity, cleanliness, and love.
Our creative team designed the logo, packaging, and a clean, modern website with messaging that connects emotionally with new parents. The tagline “Embrace the joy of parenthood, minimize the mess” became the voice of the brand.
Professional photography, animations, and a promotional video brought the story to life, giving Burple a strong visual identity and digital presence ready for market launch.
