The definition
What is a lactation pod?
A lactation pod is a freestanding private room for nursing and pumping that installs inside an existing building: fully enclosed, lockable, powered, and ventilated. It gives employers a compliant, dignified mother’s room without renovating, arrives as furniture, plugs into a standard outlet, and moves whenever the floor plan changes.
Both models are the same room at two scales. The Solo is a one-mother room for offices and clinics; the XL adds space for a stroller, a rocking chair, or a partner. Every pod ships with the locking door, in-use light, power, silent ventilation, and certified acoustics built in.

Why a pod
The mother’s room, solved as furniture.

Not a bathroom. By design.
Federal law asks for a private lactation space, other than a bathroom, shielded from view and free from intrusion. A locking, fully enclosed pod with an in-use light answers every clause, and HR can point to it on the floor plan.
DESIGNED TO THE PUMP ACT STANDARD
Retire the converted closet.
A repurposed storage room says something no benefits deck can undo. A purpose-built mother’s room with soft seating, warm light, and fresh air says the opposite, every single day.
SEATING + LIGHT + SILENT VENTILATION
Weeks, not construction.
A built room takes a contractor, a permit, and a closed floor. A pod takes a purchase order: Quick-Ship models arrive in 1 to 2 weeks, roll into place, and plug into one outlet.

Frequently asked
What lactation-room buyers ask first.
Law, cost, sizing, cleaning, and placement.
What does the PUMP Act require employers to provide?
The federal PUMP Act requires reasonable break time and a private space, other than a bathroom, that is shielded from view and free from intrusion, functional for pumping, for one year after a child’s birth. It covers most employers regardless of size. A locking, fully enclosed lactation pod is designed to those requirements; your HR or legal team confirms the fit for your site.
How much does a lactation pod cost?
Published list prices: $10,995 for the Solo Lactation Pod and $13,495 for the XL Family Lactation Pod, with free shipping in the continental US. Compare that with building a dedicated room, which means a contractor, a permit, weeks of disruption, and a space that can never move.
Which size do we need?
The Solo fits offices and clinics serving one mother at a time in a 5.3 by 4.5 ft footprint. The XL adds room for a stroller, a rocking chair, or a partner in 7.6 by 5.9 ft, which is why airports, hospitals, and large workplaces choose it. High-traffic sites often run one of each.
Do states require more than the federal law?
Many do. Some states extend the protected period, cover more employers, or add requirements like access to a sink or refrigerator nearby; California and New York are among the strictest. Check your state’s rules, and place the pod near a kitchenette when refrigeration is expected.
How are the pods cleaned?
The shells are wipe-down vinyl over solid panels and the furniture surfaces wipe clean, so the pod folds into a building’s normal cleaning route. Silent fans complete a full air change every 41 to 53 seconds, so the room never sits stale between sessions.
Where should a lactation pod go?
Near the people it serves and away from foot-traffic pinch points: a wellness corner, a quiet end of the floor, or beside HR. It needs one standard outlet and normal door clearance, and hidden casters mean a placement that does not work can simply be rolled somewhere better.
