The brand that produces and distributes condoms, lubricating gels and other products for sexual well-being, we know well that it has fear of challenging taboos.
Denim is not “virgin” territory for Durex. In 2017, the company introduced a range of its condoms in India with a slimmer package, designed to disappear into jeans pockets.
The product and campaign aimed to break the taboo of buying and carrying condoms in South Asia, where condom use was not widely accepted.
