Protecting and educating consumers

The global condom market is growing. Condoms are relatively easily accessed around the globe and are a reliable way of protecting against pregnancy. However, it is mainly the increase of recorded HIV/AIDS infection rates that gave the product a serious boost. Condoms are considered to be the best available protection against HIV and Sexually transmitted infections (STIs). However, in spite of the worldwide availability of condoms, the number of users remains at only a fraction of the people who are sexually active. Next to providing the tools to secure sexual health, diffusing the educational messages regarding the need for protection is of the utmost importance to Ansell.

Quality condoms to suit every need

Ansell Limited is the significant second player in this growing worldwide market. The company manufactures and markets a variety of quality latex and synthetic condoms.  Each line offers condoms with a whole host of flavours, colours, lubricants, shapes and ribbed textures. Innovations are continually being added to the range to provide exciting, new features for customers. In addition to protection, comfort is the hallmark of every Ansell condom. By combining high-quality products with targeted, meaningful education on the matter, Ansell strives to fulfil its mission of creating a world where all consumers are optimally protected.

Market and brand-driven approach

The Ansell condom portfolio includes a range of 18 global, regional and local brands such as LifeStyles^®, Unimil^®, Manix^®, Blowtex^®, Jissbon^® and KamaSutra^®, amongst others.  

Where needed, Ansell addresses markets and specific targeted audiences with marketing messages that are tailored to the particular country or region. Elsewhere, the company is pursuing opportunities to converge brands and to leverage synergies.

Superior global manufacturing, new product development and research also reinforce Ansell's leading position in the condom market. The recent acquisitions of major condom factories in Germany and Brazil have brought the company additional manufacturing capacity, technology and expertise.
