A condom is a barrier device used during sexual intercourse to lower the risk of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unintended pregnancies. Typically made from materials such as latex, polyurethane, or polyisoprene, condoms come in various sizes, textures, and materials to match individual preferences and needs.
The main types of condoms are natural and synthetic. Natural condoms are made from biodegradable, non-synthetic materials such as latex from rubber trees, offering an eco-friendly and chemical-free alternative to synthetic condoms. They are available as both male and female condoms and are distributed through various channels, including retail stores, online platforms, and other outlets.
Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report's Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.
Tariffs are impacting the condom market by increasing costs of imported latex, polyurethane, nitrile materials, lubricants, and automated manufacturing equipment. Manufacturers in Asia-Pacific, particularly export-oriented producers, face pricing pressure, while North America and Europe experience higher procurement costs. These tariffs are increasing production expenses and retail prices. However, they are also encouraging domestic manufacturing, regional sourcing of raw materials, and innovation in alternative and plant-based condom materials.

The rising prevalence of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) is expected to drive the growth of the condom market. STDs are infections primarily transmitted through sexual contact and can affect various parts of the body, often remaining asymptomatic or causing symptoms. The increasing incidence of STDs is influenced by factors such as reduced public health funding, insufficient screening and testing, limited sexual health education, and changes in sexual behavior. Condoms serve as a critical preventive measure, providing a barrier that reduces the risk of infection during sexual activity. For example, in September 2025, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a US-based public health organization, reported nearly 4,000 cases of congenital syphilis in 2024, marking the 12th consecutive year of increase. Consequently, the rising prevalence of STDs is fueling the growth of the condom market.
Key players in the market are focusing on innovation to meet evolving consumer needs. For instance, in February 2024, Nixit, a Canada-based period care products company, launched a line of natural rubber latex condoms. These condoms are ultra-thin, vegan, and designed to be vagina-friendly, free from spermicides, parabens, glycerin, dyes, added fragrances, and chemical irritants. They are lubricated with light silicone oil and compatible with water-based personal lubricants and menstrual cups, promoting vaginal wellness while ensuring safe contraceptive use.
