Futurotic
Plus
Sex Toy Material
Futurotic
Plus is a trademarked brand of a line of sex toys made from
a softened variation of thermoplastic elastomer, a blend of
polyvinyl chloride and silicone. Futurotic Plus is similar to
Cyberskin in texture and feel but may contain phthalates, a
chemical blend used for softening.

Example
Some adult toys are made from Futurotic Plus such as Teagan's Masturbation
Sleeve. TPE has many other uses as well. Some examples are automobile
airbag covers, yoga mats and medical catheters.
Allergy
Or Toxin Warnings
Futurotic Plus may not be phthalate free. We suggest referring to
manufacturer or item description if concerned item may not be free
of toxins. If you are considering purchasing a Futurotic sex toy,
we recommend checking with the manufacturer on whether or not the
product is free of phthalates or purchasing from a store such as Holistic
Wisdom, Inc. that is committed to offering only nontoxic sexual products.
This material is also very porous therefore easily harbors bacteria
and cannot be sterilized. We recommend using a condom with adult toys
made of Futurotic Plus to protect against possible exposure to toxins
and bacteria.
Cleaning
Recommendations
Futurotic Plus is extremely porous and should be cleaned between each
use with warm water and mild soap or antibacterial sex toy cleaners.
Once dry, sprinkle with the included "renewing" powder or cornstarch.
Never use talcum powder or baby powder, as these can cause irritation
and sometimes larger problems for women. Corn starch and a soft cloth
may also be used to bring the toy back to life. (Talcum powder has
been implicated as a possible cause of ovarian cancer.) This material
is also very porous, therefore easily harbors bacteria and cannot
be sterilized. We suggest condom use with any product made of Futurotic
Plus material. We highly recommend storing Futurotic Plus items in
a storage/separation bag or wrapped in thin material, as the porous
surface can absorb anything it comes in contact with. It is also recommended
that you store Futurotic Plus toys in a cool, dark place.
Lubricants
Use only water based lubricants with Futurotic Plus products. Silicone
or petroleum based oils will damage this material. We also recommend
using a condom with Futurotic Plus products, as they easily absorb
germs and bacteria due to the porosity of the material.
