Velvet Co. to Exhibit at ANME Show, Receives XBIZ Awards Nom

LOS ANGELES — Velvet Co. has been invited to participate at the upcoming ANME Show, which runs Sunday and Monday in Burbank.

At the tradeshow, Velvet Co. will launch its newest product, the Mini Thruster. The power-packed thrusting dildo shares the patented powerful drive system as its original, The Thruster, yet it’s smaller and less bulky.

It delivers 128 strokes per minute with 2.25 inches of penetration. Made of body safe platinum cure silicone, the product will be available in multiple colors and have a suction-cup base.

Velvet Co. will be taking pre-orders from retailers at the show, which takes place at the Los Angeles Marriott Burbank Airport hotel.

2018 has been a banner year for Velvet Co., an upstart sex toy purveyor whose flagship product, The Thruster, debuted this year.

The Thruster is a 6.5-inch thrusting toy that’s become explosively popular due to its ability to deliver 3 inches of thrust at up to 140 strokes per minute; the only wireless handheld product able to do so.

This device was named a finalist nominee in the award category Best Powered Product for the 2019 XBIZ Awards, presented by live cam network MyFreeCams.com. Scheduled for Thursday, Jan. 17, adult superstar Stormy Daniels will host the annual gala at the Westin Bonaventure in downtown Los Angeles.

“We were honored to learn we’d been recognized,” said Danyell Fima, co-founder of Velvet Co. “There were a lot of great products this year, and to be named a finalist is a big deal. We work every day to deliver a more pleasurable experience for our customers and that’s what really counts. We’re working to innovate on what we’ve already made and can’t wait to show what we’ve planned for next.”
