Biodegradable & recyclable vibrator. 1 Powerful speed. A simple push button controller. Waterproof. Requires 1 AAA battery (not included). The Material The BioFeel material is a bioplastic which is a polymer compound mixed with cornstarch. BioFeel also uses less energy and creates fewer greenhouse gas emission than any other sex toy material on the market. This material is the perfect choice for a vibrator since it is nonporous, making it bodysafe and easy to clean. It looks and plays like any hard-plastic toy. Gaia is smooth to the touch and transfers vibration beautifully. How to Recycle When ready to dispose of a Gaia toy, take it to your local recycling center. Gaia's bioplastic will biodegrade within 47-90 days in a commercial composting facility. We Care Caring for the earth is a priority for many people, as is personal health and wellness. For the eco-conscious consumer, these toys are a dream and this is the impetus for Blush to create a simple, affordable sex toy that truly reflects these values.The #Gaia line takes away the guilt of ecological damage caused to the #environment through your pursuit of pleasure.
