Victory Pellets FAQ – Answers About Plastic Pellets, Glass Beads & Safe Crafting
Safety & Material Integrity
Are plastic pellets safe?
Victory Pellets are made from pure high-density polyethylene (HDPE) that is non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and odorless. We never use recycled resin or foreign fillers—just clean, consistent quality you can trust.
Victory Pellets are:
- BPA-free and food-grade compliant
- Safe for use in plush toys, weighted blankets, slime, and crafts
- Proudly made in the USA under strict quality controls
Whether you're crafting for kids, creating therapeutic products, or manufacturing at scale, Victory Pellets deliver safety without compromise.
Durability & Heat Handling
Are Victory Pellets washer and dryer safe?
Yes. Victory Pellets are washer and dryer safe and can handle both high and low heat settings. They’re ideal for use in weighted bags, plush toys, and sensory crafts that require regular cleaning. For best results, enclose the pellets in a secure inner pouch or fabric liner to prevent shifting during wash cycles.
Always follow fabric care instructions and test on a small scale if using specialty materials.
Can Victory Pellets be used in microwavable heating pads or therapeutic pillows?
Yes. Victory Pellets are commonly used to fill moist heating pads and therapeutic pillows. While the pellets themselves do not retain heat and will not melt, the fabric that contains them does retain heat. Some fabrics hold heat better than others.
Important safety note:
- Do not microwave the product for more than 90 seconds
- Always test the temperature carefully before use
- Heating time may vary depending on your microwave and fabric type
Caution: Product will be hot—please handle with care.
Crafting Versatility
Can I use Victory Pellets for slime or plush toys?
Absolutely. Victory Pellets are smooth-pour, non-toxic, and designed for sensory crafts like slime, plush toys, weighted blankets, and more.
What do you put poly pellets in for stuffed animals?
Use a secure inner pouch or fabric compartment inside the stuffed animal to contain the poly pellets. This prevents shifting and ensures safety, especially for children’s toys.
Sustainability & Reuse
Can Victory Pellets be reused, upcycled, or recycled?
Absolutely. Victory Pellets are recyclable and endlessly reusable, making them a smart choice for eco-conscious crafting. You can even recover beads from old slime by breaking it down with vinegar—giving them a second life in new projects.
Creative ways to reuse Victory Pellets include:
- Upcycling into hardened slime sculptures
- Creating crunchy mosaics or sensory art
- Refilling slime kits or plush toys
Whether you're crafting, teaching, or prototyping, Victory Pellets support sustainable play that lasts.
