Latex-free condoms

Non-latex condoms – polyurethane, polyisoprene and synthetic materials

Latex-free condoms are made from synthetic materials. They are chosen by people who are allergic to latex, and by those who dislike its smell or texture.

What you’ll find in this category

• SAGAMI Original 0.01 and 0.02 – polyurethane, standard, L and XL sizes, and the ExtraLub version with extra lubricant.
• SKYN – polyisoprene, Original, Elite, Close Feel, Large, Intense Feel and Extra Lube ranges, plus packs.
• UNIQ – male condoms made from synthetic material, including unusual shapes.
• Female condoms – all models in the catalogue are latex-free.

How do the materials differ?

• Polyurethane is thin, odourless and a good heat conductor. It stretches less than latex, so you need to choose your size more carefully. According to the manufacturer SAGAMI, it can be used with water-based, silicone-based and oil-based lubricants.
• Polyisoprene is soft and flexible, with a texture similar to latex. Like latex, it does not tolerate oils well – choose a water-based or silicone-based lubricant.

If you have a confirmed latex allergy, check the product description to see what the manufacturer says about its use if you have an allergy, and if in doubt, consult your doctor.

Good to know

Condoms reduce the risk of pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections, but no method offers complete protection. Before use, check the expiry date and read the manufacturer’s instructions.
