Key Market Trends
Increased Usage of Contraceptive Methods Owing to Favorable Government Initiatives

Growing awareness through government initiatives and comprehensive sex education programs to reduce the prevalence of sexually transmitted diseases are driving the market growth across the world. Various regional governments are promoting the use of condoms for preventing unwanted pregnancies and preventing HIV/AIDS. In 2017, Public Health England launched ‘Protect against STIs’, a new campaign introduced to reduce the rates of sexually transmitted diseases among 16-24 year olds through condom usage. In India, free condoms are procured by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare and are distributed by NACO/SACS to the high risk groups (HRGs) through TI NGOs/ICTC/ART centers for HIV/AIDS prevention. The program focuses on the high prevalence and high fertility districts, with additional emphasis on ensuring condom availability in HRG sites: the vulnerable population intensive areas. Similarly, in African countries, the National Department of Health (NDOH) is taking steps to ensure easy availability of male condoms to all the communities across South Africa. Thus, promoting the sales.

Asia-Pacific Dominates the Condom Market

China is one of the largest markets for condoms, worldwide. Chinese authorities have tended in the past to supply condoms either free of charge or at subsidized prices. In recent years, though, expansion of the middle class has created more opportunities for individuals to exercise personal freedom by purchasing high-quality condoms at higher prices from retail stores. Such factors have been positives for the popular condom brands such as Okamoto, which has gained brand recognition within the medium- and high-price brackets. The boost in the sales of condom in the country is majorly because of the government authorities that supply up to 1–2 billion condoms per year, mainly to support the one-child policy and prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS by buying regular supplies of condoms from local makers and distributing them to the populace. Another major factor behind the market growth is it characterized by fierce competition, with over 200 manufacturers competing primarily on price. International brands are differentiated in terms of product quality. Sales of imported condoms are increasing, with most imports coming from Japan, Thailand, and Malaysia.

Competitive Landscape
The global condom market is fairly consolidated as the majority of the market is dominated by a few leading players. The market was led by Reckitt Benckiser Group PLC, followed by Humanwell Group & CITIC Capital, Church & Dwight, and Okamoto Global. These companies have shown a strong international presence owing to consistent innovations, product launches, and high-end strategic advancements in the global condom market. Trojan Condoms offered by Church and Dwight are the most popular condom on earth and known as America’s most trusted brand for almost 90 years. All Trojan brand condoms meet or exceed strict FDA testing requirements. The company also entitles itself as an innovative and active condom manufacturer in the market, providing consumers with new product launches in the form of distinctive flavors and textures of condoms. For instance, in July 2020, Trojan launched New XOXO™, which features packaging innovations, including a discreet, mini travel pack that stores up to two condoms for added convenience while carrying on-the-go.
