Ever wondered what the benefits of Silicone over TPE were, or if ABS is the same as PVC? Well, this is where we break down the materials and give you some insight into your toys are made of.

**Silicone: The Ideal Choice

When it comes to selecting materials for sex toys, silicone stands out as a top choice. Known for its impressive properties, silicone offers multiple advantages that make it favourable over other materials when it comes to your pleasure products.

*Safety and Durability.

One of the most significant benefits of silicone is its safety. Unlike some materials that can leach harmful bacteria, silicone is non-porous and hypoallergenic, making it a safe option for people with sensitivities, and will not react negatively to your skin or compromise your health.

*Versatile and Flexible

Silicone's flexibility is another major attraction and can range from a very soft, squishy texture to a firm, almost rigid feeling without losing its integrity.

*Compatibility and Enhanced Softness

The newest incarnation, Liquid Silicone is celebrated for its exceptional softness and life-like feel, mimicking human skin. Silicone is incredibly enduring, but it's best to keep it away from silicone lubricant, as they can break each other down.

Is it time for you to embrace the benefits of silicone and discover why it's the preferred choice for so many customers?

** TPE and TPR: The Flexible and Realistic Materials of Today’s Sex Toys

In recent years, TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) and TPR (Thermoplastic Rubber) have become increasingly popular materials with a variety of sex toys, and for good reason. Both TPE and TPR offer flexibility and a realistic feel that makes them ideal choices for a range of toys from dildos to masturbators and beyond. Now it’s time to delve into the advantages these materials offer,

* What Are TPE and TPR?

TPE is a versatile material that combines the properties of rubber and plastic. It can be easily moulded and processed like plastic while maintaining the elasticity of rubber. TPR shares similar characteristics but is typically stiffer and may provide greater durability. Both materials are widely used in the production of various sex toys.

*Flexibility: A Key Advantage

One of the standout features of TPE and TPR is their exceptional flexibility. This property allows these materials to be easily shaped and moulded, making them ideal for products that require a snug fit or intricate design, and providing both functionality and comfort.

* Realistic Feel

Another significant advantage of TPE and TPR is their realistic feel. These materials can mimic the texture and softness of natural materials, making them a popular choice for items such as realistic masturbators and dildos. This enhances the aesthetic appeal of products and improves user experience, especially in items meant for tactile interaction.

*Porosity and Breathability

TPE and TPR is formulated to be porous, which can enhance comfort and performance in toys where breathability is important. However, this means the material has small, microscopic holes, which can hold bacteria. So, it is imperative, that once you have had your fun, you thoroughly clean your TPE/TPR toy, ensuring an anti-bacterial cleaner is used.

* Durability and Long-lasting Use

When it comes to durability, TPE and TPR degrade faster than silicone, especially if your toy comes in contact with oils or silicone lubricants. To ensure your toy has a longer life, keep it stored separately from other materials.

TPE and TPR are versatile materials that offer a unique combination of flexibility and realism but are porose and not as durable as other materials. Understanding the benefits of TPE and TPR can help you choose the right toy for your needs.

** PVC: A Safe and Adaptable Choice for Toys

In the world of sex toys, safety and durability are top priorities. One material that consistently stands out is PVC (polyvinyl chloride).

*Adaptability 

PVC is incredibly versatile and can be moulded into a multitude of shapes and designs. This flexibility allows us to create toys that are not only visually appealing but also functional.

*Maintenance Matters

While PVC is a durable material, it is also porous. This means that thorough cleaning is essential to maintain hygiene. Clean your PVC toy after play with soap and water, using an anti-bacterial cleaner. This helps prevent the buildup of dirt and germs but ensures your playtime remains safe and enjoyable.

*Durability You Can Trust

The durability of PVC can vary depending on its quality, but generally, high-quality PVC toys are designed to withstand the test of time. Phthalate-free PVC toys maintain their integrity over time, making them a reliable option for active play.

PVC toys offer a combination of safety, adaptability, and durability. Remember to prioritise cleanliness, and you’ll ensure that playtime remains enjoyable!

** ABS Plastic: A Perfect Choice for Design and Durability

When it comes to toys, ABS plastic stands out as a firm favourite among toy manufacturers and consumers alike. If you’re looking for a versatile, safe, and durable material, ABS plastic may be just what you need.

*What is ABS Plastic?

Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, commonly known as ABS plastic, is a thermoplastic polymer that has gained immense popularity for sex toys. But why choose ABS plastic?

*Non-Porous Nature

One of the standout features of ABS plastic is its non-porous surface. This characteristic not only enhances the material's durability but also makes it resistant to moisture, chemicals, and other environmental factors. As a result, items made from ABS are less likely to suffer from corrosion or degradation, ensuring a longer lifespan.

*Vibration Conductor and Lubricant Compatible

Thanks to the stiffness and density of ABS plastic, it has the ability to conduct vibrations throughout the toy, making it one of the best materials for your vibration toys, and it’s compatible with all types of lubricants. Even Oil Based!

*Hard and Firm Structure

ABS plastic is known for its robust structure, providing excellent strength and shock resistance. This makes it a go-to material in applications where durability is critical.

*Body Safety

For products intended for close contact with the human body, safety is paramount, and ABS plastic is safe for use, making it a material of choice for a variety of toys that prioritise both utility and safety.

*Aesthetically Versatile

ABS plastic can be easily moulded into various shapes and sizes, allowing for creative designs. Its smooth surface can be finished in countless ways, whether you prefer a glossy sheen or a matte finish, ABS can accommodate your vision.

*Durability

One of the intrinsic advantages of ABS plastic is its durability. It can withstand impact and stress, making it less prone to breaking or cracking compared to other materials. This resilience makes ABS an excellent choice for products that like to experience daily wear and tear.

In the world of materials, ABS plastic emerges as a champion of practicality, style and vibration distribution!

** Glass: A Sensory Exploration

When we think of materials that embody sophistication and charm, glass often comes to mind. Its unique properties not only enhance aesthetics but also engage our senses in remarkable ways.

*Hygienic and Non-Porous

One of the standout features of glass is that it is non-porous. This means it doesn't absorb bacteria or odours, making it an excellent choice for sex toys. Whether it's a beautifully crafted glass dildo, or a sleek butt plug, the clean surface of glass ensures that it maintains its pristine appearance over time. Glass toys can also be used with any lubricant types, without any fear of damaging the toy.

*Perfect Temperature Play

Another fascinating aspect of glass is its ability to play with temperature. Glass can be designed to withstand extreme heat or cold, making it versatile for temperature and sensation play. All you need to do is run it under water! Or for those who like it really cold, pop it in the freezer!

*Elegant Durability

Durability is one of glass's key advantages, and while it may seem delicate, modern glass is engineered to be incredibly strong and resilient. This durability ensures that glass toys can last for many years, making them not only beautiful but also practical investments.

Glass is more than just a material; it’s a blend of elegance and sensory experience.

** Metal for Your Needs

When it comes to selecting materials for both toys and bondage items, metal stands out as a top choice due to its remarkable properties.

*Durability You Can Rely On

One of the most significant advantages of metal is its unparalleled durability. Unlike many other materials, metal can withstand wear and tear over time, making it a long-lasting investment. Whether you’re using it for dildos, butt plugs, collars or paddles, metal is designed to endure, standing up to everyday use without compromising its integrity.

*Hygienic and Non-Porous

Hygiene is a critical factor in our intimate play-things, and metal excels in this area. Being non-porous, metal does not absorb moisture, odours or bacteria, making it much easier to clean and maintain. A quick wipe-down is often all it takes to keep metal surfaces looking pristine. The beauty of metal is that it can also be used with any lubricant types too!

*Temperature Play Made Easy

Another fantastic feature of metal is its ability to conduct temperature effectively. If you're looking to experiment with temperature play in intimate settings, metal is an excellent choice. Its ability to retain heat or chill ensures that your experience is elevated, allowing for a range of experiential pleasures.

Choosing metal not only enhances durability but also prioritises hygiene and adds versatility to your play experiences.

So, there you have it, a glossary of all the materials of the things that make you goo! Whether you go with Glass or Metal, PVC or ABS, TPE or Silicone, always remember to look after your toys, use the right lube, and always clean after play!

Until the next time!
