Ethical and Green Condoms

We have been showing how ethical and green issues have become more mainstream over the last two years. We have looked at green cars, green mobile phones, ethical fashion, eco-clubbing and now bring you ethical and green condoms! Yes that’s right- if you want to life a completely ethical and green life there are now even certain condoms you can use.

French Letter condoms are made by Fair Deal Trading ho guarantee higher wages and better working conditions for rubber tappers in South Asia. Fair Deal Trading originally brought Fairtrade footballs to the UK but have expanded into different avenues…..

So are their condoms safe? Yes they are! French Letter condoms are kitemarked by the BSI and are CE marked. This means that they meet all the standards.

There we have it- no excuses for not living an ethical and green life!  Enjoy!

French Letter condoms can be bought from Ethical Superstore by clicking the image below.

    If you want to get the most out of a night of fun, you need to use One brand condoms. They are safe, and give more pleasure than the biggest competitors. Just go to OneCondoms.com to get all of the information you need to have a great time.

    For those primarily concerned by climate change: some condom manufacturers are making their products less carbon intensive but not even telling us! The health and well-being message which needs to be got across is (rightly) deemed more important than ‘green’ condoms.

    Not as green as biodegradable condoms, or as ethical as fair trade condoms, but every little counts, right? Plus we’re talking about some of the world’s major condom brands…

    The chairman of the company which makes the Durex brand recently detailed how much less carbon intensive Durex condoms were becoming in a quietly-released eco-article, but their normal PR refuses to pursue the message. The company gains by reduced production costs and we gain from making our nocturnal habits less carbon-intensive!

    Kudos to Durex, but I suspect they are keeping their improvements to themselves and reaping just the cost savings benefits. Probably because advertising their “green condoms” may cause more folks to not buy from them. Ill buy from them, but some may worry that their new process may cheapen the product, or make it less reliable. They probably also don’t want people to associate “recycling” with this particular product.
