Many people with sensitive and allergy-prone skin may find it challenging to choose earrings that don’t trigger adverse reactions. However, there is a safe solution to this problem – titanium earrings, which unlike earrings from other metals, don’t cause allergic reactions and hypersensitivity. Titanium doesn’t contain nickel, a metal known to cause allergic reactions, therefore it is considered a hypoallergenic metal, meaning it is suitable for individuals with sensitive skin. Because of titanium’s non-reactive nature, this metal is being used in both jewellery and medical implants. We offer only exceptionally high-quality titanium earrings.
In jewellery, titanium is often valued for its durability. Also, titanium is a solution to people with sensitive ears or allergies to other metals. It is the best solution for newly pierced ears, as it doesn’t cause negative effects in the body. Titanium is a non-porous metal, meaning it is resistant to growth of fungi and other bacteria, this way reducing the risk of infection.
The best choice for sensitive ears
Titanium earrings do not contain nickel, copper or brass, therefore they are completely safe for individuals with allergies to other metals or sensitive skin in general.
Most biocompatible metal with the human body is titanium, with less than 0,6% of people allergic to it, making it the most acceptable metal, as it won’t irritate your skin. Additionally, it doesn’t stain your skin or even rust, since titanium does not react with any chemical substance.
What grade of titanium is the best for earrings?
Grade 1 is the most suitable for earring manufacturers, as it’s not only sturdy, but also easy to shape and highly resistant to corrosion. Jewellery made out of titanium doesn’t rust and scratch, making it convenient to wear every day. The surface of titanium is stronger than platinum, therefore jewellery made out of this metal is safe from damage and does not lose its shape.
Grade 2 and 3 titanium is generally quite similar, both tougher than Grade 1. However, they do have few key differences: Grade 3 titanium is used less often because it is harder to shape it, while Grade 2 titanium is used more often in making jewellery, knowing it is almost as resistant to corrosion as Grade 1 titanium.
On the other hand, Grade 4 titanium is an excellent combination of both classes, offering exceptional strength and corrosion resistance. That’s why it’s a great material for manufacturing medical tools and due to its lightweight and ductility is an ideal option for industrial needs.
