The shipping cost depends on products ordered (weight/dimensions) and the destination (country).

If you order displays and other bulky items, shipping cost will go up as you will be charged by the volume and not by weight (volumetric weight).

Approximately, your shipping cost for a US$ 1,000 order will be around US$ 80-100 to Europe. As for an order of US $10,000, it will be around US$ 250.

The exact shipping cost will be on your Proforma Invoice.

Bioplast® is brand of products made form a medical material that is safe for piercing and can be autoclaved (sterilized).

Bioplast® can be cut to any length and threaded by any metal ball closure. It is available in different shapes (Banana bars, Circular Bars, barbells, Labrets, eyebrow, nose studs etc). It can be combined with SS316L or Titanium.

Bioplast® adjusts to the body temperature and not to the outside air temperature, like metals. Therefore, people getting pierced with Bioplast® have less swellings and infections. The healing process is much faster than with any other materials. Bioplast® does not contain nickel that can be a reason for allergic reactions.

Back to Top

The main advantage of Bioplast® is that it is biocompatible and perfectly accepted by the biological system. It adjusts to the body temperature and not to the outside air temperature, like metals (titanium, steel, etc).

It is very flexible and light so it makes it ideal for piercing to minimize the risk of injury. Also it heals faster with Bioplast® and it has no allergic reactions (no nickel)

Especially for Labrets, Bioplast® is considered one of the best materials to use as it does not harm the tooth enamel as metals do.

Back to Top

The main reason for fewer infections with Bioplast® is that when inserted into the body it changes its temperature to the body temperature thus not causing any allergic responses or infections.

Back to Top

Bioplast® is biocompatible and has no nickel or toxic in it which helps the body to adapt this material better into the body resulting in better and faster healing.

The main reason for fewer infections with Bioplast® is that when inserted into the body it changes its’ temperature to the body’s temperature not causing any allergic responses or infections.

Back to Top

Bioplast® is biocompatible which means that it does not have toxic or injurious effects on biological systems.

Back to Top

Bioplast® can be autoclaved (sterilized) at 121 °C and pressured at 15PSI.

Back to Top

A method used to sterilize laboratory and medical equipment. Autoclaving kills all microorganisms present, including those that are resistant to the usual methods of disinfection such as alcohol. It is extremely efficient and reliable.

Autoclaves comes in two varieties: steam and chemical. Steam autoclaves are the most common and the standard In Body Piercing. These use steam to sterilize objects, reaching a high temperature (121 °C) and pressure (15PSI) to kill microorganisms. Chemical autoclaves, or chemiclaves, are an alternative piece of equipment. Like with steam autoclaves, chemiclaves use steam under high pressure and temperature. They also use alcohol and formaldehyde vapors for additional sterilization.

There is a difference between Nickel contain and Nickel release. Surgical Steel 316L always contains 6-13% of Nickel. If someone argues that Surgical Steel has no Nickel in it, it cannot be true since it would not be 316L.

What is the most important is the Nickel release to the body, which should not be more than 0.5%.

The European Nickel free standard states that the rate of nickel release from the parts of products coming into direct and prolonged contact with the skin should not be greater than 0.5 μg/cm²/week. In other words, these products should not release more than 0.05% nickel (no more than 1 part in 2000 should be Nickel).

This rate of nickel release is even lower for piercing: 0.2 μg/cm2/week. (View the materials page to download all our nickel certificates.)

Our products only contain 0.1 μg/cm²/week.
