CHATSWORTH, Calif.—NS Novelties earned five combined nominations for the 2018 AVN Awards, honoring top achievement in all sectors of the adult industry, and the ninth annual “O” Awards, recognizing the best products and collections from the industry's top manufacturers.
NS Novelties, named Best Pleasure Products Manufacturer - Large at the 2017 AVN Awards, is once again nominated for the prestigious honor in 2018. Additionally, AVN has nominated NS Novelties in the category for Best Fetish Manufacturer.
Products nominated for the 2018 “O” Awards include StrapEase Bondage Straps, Lust Bondage, and the revolutionary Shi/Shi Union massager, a first-of-its-kind vibe designed to enhance the scissoring/tribbing experience for female couples.
Praised as a game-changer by both adult and mainstream outlets, including leading lesbian websites AfterEllen.com and GoMag.com, the Shi/Shi Union is nominated for Outstanding Innovation at the 2018 “O” Awards. Conceived by lesbian sex toy designer Gabrielle Anex, the Union's groundbreaking design features two independently controlled motors encased in a soft silicone casing that moves in tandem with each partner, ensuring mutual pleasure while providing individual control of its vibrations.
“It is really thrilling to see the Shi/Shi Union get recognition from AVN for Outstanding Innovation,” Anex said. “The Union represents a different approach to sex toys targeted at gay women and it is really awesome to see it being honored.”
StrapEase Bondage Straps secured a nomination in the category for Outstanding Non-Powered Product. Made of polyester with ABS buckles and available in an assortment of colors and sizes, the straps were a hit with consumers looking to enhance their creative bondage play. NS Novelties also whipped up an Outstanding Packaging nomination for Lust Bondage, a lavishly designed line of purple BDSM accessories made of heavy-duty vinyl with neoprene lining and easy-to-use Velcro closures.
“We’re very grateful to be nominated for the 2018 AVN Awards and the ‘O’ Awards,” said Lavi Yedid, NS Novelties’ director of operations. “Having NS Novelties named Best Pleasure Products Manufacturer last year was a tremendous honor for our team and served to further encourage our commitment to creating the innovative products our customers expect and enjoy.”
