Sheerlon™ Technology

Latex is extracted from the rubber tree, which is a milky liquid.
Only the best components are used, undergoing a strict inspection.

More than 10 different raw materials, including latex, are mixed in a temperature-controlled tank.
These compounds, together with the exclusive Sheerlon production process, create the thinnest condom in the world.

The compounds are poured into the dipping tank, where rotating glass molds are immersed.
• A very thin layer of compound forms on each mold.
• This dipping machine is fully computer-controlled, maintaining optimal conditions.
• Afterward, the condom is removed from the mold and vulcanized. Vulcanization makes the condom stronger.

Each condom undergoes an electronic hole detection test: if a condom has a hole, it is automatically rejected.
• Condoms that pass this stage are then subjected to at least 5 additional sampling tests, including the water leakage test, tensile test, burst test, among others.
• These tests confirm that Okamoto condoms far exceed FDA quality requirements.

Each condom is automatically packaged in its wrapper while lubricant is added.
Both the lubricants and the packaging materials are also tested under Okamoto’s strict standards.
