Fun Factory

German engineering meets playful innovation—since 1996

Fun Factory has been revolutionizing pleasure products from Bremen, Germany for nearly three decades. Founded in 1996 by Dirk Bauer and Michael Pahl, who famously prototyped their first designs with Play-Doh at a kitchen table, the company pioneered industry standards that competitors now take for granted: the first rechargeable vibrator, first waterproof toy, and first use of medical-grade silicone.

Manufacturing remains 100% in Germany, with development, production, and quality testing concentrated in a single Bremen facility. This vertical integration ensures rigorous standards: every product undergoes extensive functional testing, and the brand maintains an exceptionally low return rate. Their commitment earned eight iF Design Awards and a Red Dot Award, recognizing engineering excellence that’s as beautiful as it is functional.

Fun Factory’s patented STRONIC pulsators represent their most distinctive innovation—an entirely new product category. Unlike traditional vibrators, pulsators create a back-and-forth thrusting motion for a fundamentally different sensation. The Bi Stronic Fusion combines this technology with external vibration across 64 stimulation settings, while the Sundaze offers 15 varied pulsation patterns.

For couples specifically, the SHARE line reinvented strapless strap-on design. The Share Vibe Pro delivers the strongest vibrations of any double dildo, while the lightweight Share Lite incorporates customer feedback with a foam core that’s 22% lighter. These toys enable skin-to-skin contact between partners while providing internal stimulation for the wearer.

Sustainability runs deep in Fun Factory’s operations. Their silicone recycling program partners with Bremen facilities to chemically recover materials from old toys. All packaging is 100% recyclable with plastic-free shipping, and rechargeable batteries eliminate disposable waste. As their team states: “Ethics are sexy.”

Materials meet pharmaceutical standards—100% medical-grade silicone that’s body-safe, non-porous, hypoallergenic, and phthalate-free. Every vibrating product carries a 2-year warranty against defects, reflecting confidence in German manufacturing quality.

Fun Factory occupies a unique market position: premium quality like LELO but with playful, colorful aesthetics and genuine technological innovation. Their products prove that engineering precision and bedroom fun aren’t mutually exclusive—sometimes the most serious craftsmanship creates the most joyful experiences.
