Favorite Materials For Sex Toys
Our favorite materials are all non-porous, without phthalates or any dangerous/toxic agents. They can even be sterilized in boiling water, if they don’t contain any electronic components.

Porcelain
Glass—Borosilicate (Pyrex)
Silicone—Medical Grade, premium or 100% silicone
Stainless steel—Medical grade


The " Okay" Materials
We do understand that you are not necessarily ready to pay the full price for your first toy, or for something completely new to you. Theses materials are a good "second choice", but if you are very sensible or if you want to buy a sex toy that will last you for a very long time, stay with our first picks.

Wood
ABS plastic*
Crystal/Natural Stone
Those materials are usually known to be safe for sex toys, but some of those can be porous and others can degrade with time. We included wood in this section, but you need to make sure that the quality of the varnishing product used on the surface is medical grade. For wood toys, look for a phthalates-free solvent-free water varnish.

* We need to do a special mention for ABS plastic; it's a non-toxic, non-porous plastic that is much more affordable than silicone, but cannot be sterilized in hot water.
