About Durex
Durex is Britain's leading sexual wellness brand, founded in London in 1929. The name stands for "Durability, Reliability, and Excellence"—a promise the brand has upheld for over 95 years. Today, Durex holds 30% of the global condom market and is sold in more than 150 countries. The brand traces its origins to the London Rubber Company, formed in 1915, which began manufacturing condoms in 1932 in collaboration with Polish rubber technologist Lucian Lundau. The brand revolutionised the industry with new latex technology that made condoms more comfortable and reliable. In 2010, Reckitt Benckiser (now Reckitt) acquired SSL International—Durex's parent company—for £2.54 billion, integrating the brand into its portfolio of consumer health products. This acquisition expanded Durex's distribution networks and marketing capabilities worldwide. Durex's UK product range includes condoms in multiple sizes (regular, close fit, and large fit), textures (ribbed, dotted, extra safe), and speciality variants (ultra-thin, real feel, flavoured). The revolutionary Intensity range features BodyFeel™ material—the brand's thinnest condom ever, made from latex-free material. Beyond condoms, Durex offers a comprehensive lubricant range including water-based lubes, silicone-based options, 2-in-1 massage gels, and vaginal moisturisers. The brand also produces intimate accessories including vibrating rings and pleasure gels designed to enhance sexual experiences. Durex has been a consistent ally to the LGBTQI+ community, supporting Pride events and partnering with Stonewall for inclusive education. The brand was named Brand Ally of the Year by Pink News in 2023. Durex products are available at UK supermarkets including Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda, and Boots, as well as pharmacies and online retailers.
