Silicone or TPE Dolls?

Published on 3 December 2024 at 16:11

TPE and silicone are popular materials for manufacturing sex dolls. Although the materials are similar, they have different characteristics. TPE stands for Thermoplastic elastomer. The most significant differences between silicone and TPE sex dolls are in the texture, the price, durability, and the maintenance work that will be required.

TPE has a softer and more realistic texture compared to silicone dolls but silicone dolls are more durable and easier to maintain. In this blog post I will summarize the differences to help you make an informed decision.
