NEW YORK — Blush Novelties has released Gaia, the first line of biodegradable vibrators.

The Gaia line is made of BioFeel, a bioplastic or polymer compound mixed with cornstarch.

“At Blush Novelties, we’re always looking to be innovative with our choice of materials,” the company said. “This material was the perfect choice for a vibrator since it’s nonporous, making it completely safe and clean for use in the body.

“The Gaia line takes away the guilt of ecological damage caused to the environment through your pursuit of pleasure. Our bioplastic will biodegrade within 47-90 days in a commercial composting facility.”

Blush released its first product from the Gaia line this week. The Eco features a classic vibrator design that can be used for internal or external stimulation with multi-speed vibrations and a twist dial control. It’s currently available in three nature-inspired colors: coral, aqua and green. The Eco will retail for $14.30 and will be available at adult retailers throughout the country.

“Blush Novelties is always looking to innovate in this industry,” said Eric Lee, Blush Novelties COO. “Not only is Biofeel biodegradable, but it’s completely nonporous, making it a completely safe choice for a sex toy.”
