Full size sex doll

The two primary materials are TPE (Thermoplastic Elastomer) and Silicone. TPE is more cost-effective, softer, and more porous, requiring regular cleaning and powdering to prevent tackiness. Silicone is more durable, heat-resistant, and non-porous, making it easier to sanitize and maintain, though it comes at a higher price point. For B2B buyers, TPE is often preferred for high-volume retail, while Silicone targets the premium luxury market.

Focus on the internal metal skeleton, which should be made of stainless steel or high-strength aluminum to allow for a wide range of motion and durability. Check for articulated joints that can hold positions without snapping. Advanced functional features include integrated heating systems, voice interaction modules, and replaceable parts (like heads or hands), which can significantly increase the product's market value and lifespan.

Since these products have prolonged skin contact, they must be BPA-free and phthalate-free. Ensure the manufacturer provides SGS or RoHS certification for material safety. For dolls with electronic components (heating/voice), CE, FCC, or UL certification is required to ensure electrical safety and prevent overheating. Always verify that the lubricants or cleaning kits included meet the chemical safety regulations of the destination country (e.g., REACH in the EU).

Examine the skin texture (pore detail), hand-painted makeup durability, and hair implantation quality. High-end suppliers use implanted mohair or human hair rather than cheap wigs. Request unfiltered factory videos rather than relying solely on rendered marketing photos, as 'catfishing' is a common risk in this industry. Pay attention to seam lines; premium dolls have minimal or invisible mold lines.

Customs regulations vary significantly by country. Some regions have strict obscenity laws that may lead to seizures if the product's appearance is deemed inappropriate or if it resembles a minor. Always ensure the HS Code (typically 9503.00 or 3926.90) is declared correctly. It is highly recommended to use discreet packaging (plain brown boxes) with neutral labeling like 'Plastic Mannequin' or 'Medical Model' to ensure smooth clearance and protect consumer privacy.

Utilize secure payment methods and platforms like Made-in-China.com, which offer trade fulfillment security. Never pay 100% upfront; a 30/70 payment split (30% deposit, 70% after final inspection) is standard. Hire a third-party inspection service to perform a 'drop test' and 'smell test' (to check for heavy chemical odors) before the balance is paid and the goods are shipped.

Full-size dolls are heavy (25kg to 50kg) and bulky. To save on costs, consider sea freight for bulk orders and air express (like UPS/FedEx) only for samples. To reduce 'volumetric weight' charges, ask if the supplier can detach the head and pack the body in a more compact, reinforced carton with custom-fitted foam inserts to prevent the skeleton from piercing the skin during transit.
