Many regular doll fans are likely already familiar with TPE dolls,TPE dolls were the very first type of realistic adult dolls to hit the market. But what exactly are S-TPE dolls, which have appeared on the market over the last two years? Now,we will compare the differences between these two materials and offer guidance on how to make the right choice.
1. Softness
STPE dolls are softer than regular TPE dolls. If the softness of a regular TPE doll is 1.0, then the softness of a STPE doll is 1.4. If both are made of TPE material, but you prioritize softness, choose STPE.
2. Pressure resistance
Many TPE dolls can develop small indentations in certain areas after prolonged sitting, lying down, or during long-distance shipping (such as by sea). Thanks to the natural resilience of TPE, these dents will eventually rebound. To minimize this issue, S‑TPE is the better choice.
In a workshop test, we placed a heavy object,a doll’s head,on the doll’s abdomen. If the time it takes for a standard TPE doll to show an indentation is rated as 1.0, an S‑TPE doll only registers 0.7, demonstrating that S‑TPE dolls offer superior compression resistance.
3. Tear Resistance
This is especially important for large breasts dolls. If you own a doll with a larger bust and don’t want to spend much time maintaining naturally sagging breasts, S‑TPE is a better choice. The biggest issue with large-breasted dolls is that the weight can sometimes cause tearing on the upper chest (even though such tears can be repaired). So if you’re purchasing a large-breasted doll from Dolls Castle and are concerned about potential issues caused by breast weight, S‑TPE is the right material.
4. Oil Secretion
All TPE dolls can produce oil and require regular powdering to control it. Excess oil may also cause staining. If you prefer not to powder your doll frequently, S‑TPE dolls are the better option, as they have a lower oil secretion rate than standard TPE. This results in a more pleasant experience during close contact.
5. Smell
Regarding odor, there is no significant difference between TPE and S‑TPE dolls.These are the main differences between TPE and S‑TPE dolls. Naturally, upgrading to a S‑TPE doll comes with a slightly higher cost. So how do you choose the right material for your TPE doll?
1.For standard TPE dolls with average or smaller body sizes and weighing under 45 kg, standard TPE material is sufficient
2.For larger dolls, including BBW (Big Beautiful Woman) dolls weighing 45 kg or more, S‑TPE is the recommended choice.
