The materials used in sex doll manufacturing directly influence the product’s realism, safety, and longevity. The two primary materials are silicone and thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), each with distinct properties. Silicone is known for its durability, heat resistance, and highly realistic texture, making it a popular choice for high-end dolls. Its non-porous nature also makes it easier to clean and maintain. TPE, on the other hand, is softer and more elastic, providing a more lifelike skin feel at a lower cost, though it is slightly less durable and more porous.
Other components include the internal skeletons, which are typically made of metal or high-strength plastics to provide flexibility and stability. The choice of hair, eye materials, and paint also impacts realism and safety. Artisans select these components carefully to ensure they are non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and durable. The right combination of materials ensures that the finished doll offers a convincing tactile experience, remains safe for use, and maintains its appearance over time. Thoughtful material selection is thus fundamental to crafting high-quality, realistic sex dolls.
