Tantus Wins Boutique Brand of the Year StorErotica Award

SPARKS, Nev. — Tantus was named Boutique Brand of the Year at the 2012 StorErotica Awards.

"We were deeply honored to receive this award," said Jenna Clark, marketing manager at Tantus. "One of our goals as a company is to make sure that we're focused on sexual health over profit. Metis Black founded this company on that very principle 15 years ago, and was instrumental in raising awareness about materials safety. To be recognized alongside some of the world's largest companies was a wonderful surprise. Many thanks to the readers and editorial staff of Storerotica for their consideration."

StorErotica Award winners are chosen by online industry voting and the editorial staff at StorErotica.

In his acceptance speech, CEO Michael Blacksmith said, “"We stuck to our brand, and tried to be true to ourselves."

All Tantus toys are made from Tantus’ own blend of Ultra Premium Silicone. Tantus products are hypoallergenic, non-toxic, phthalate free, heavy metal free, odorless, boilable, bleachable and even dishwasher safe.
