Great news! EXS Condoms are now 100% vegan and ethically manufactured in our factory in Malaysia. We’ve replaced all animal testing with advanced “in vitro” testing, ensuring our products are both safe and cruelty-free.
Are All Condoms Vegan?
When selecting a condom, consumers look beyond just safety and reliability. They also consider factors such as:
- Sustainability: Where are my condoms made?
- Ethical Sourcing: Do they come from a sustainable source?
- Animal-free Production: Are there any animal products used in the manufacturing process?
- Testing Methods: Are animals used for testing?
While some brands claim to produce vegan condoms by avoiding animal products, they often overlook the fact that their products might be tested in labs that conduct animal testing.
What is In Vitro Testing?
“In Vitro” refers to processes performed outside their natural biological context, such as in test tubes or petri dishes. This method allows for detailed analysis without involving whole organisms, making it a cruelty-free alternative to traditional testing.
The Truth About Animal Testing
Unfortunately, many factories, including some leading condom brands, still conduct animal testing for medical device biocompatibility. Biocompatibility measures how compatible a device is with a biological system, but it often comes at the expense of animal welfare.
EXS Condoms by LTC Healthcare are 100% Vegan and Cruelty-Free
At LTC Healthcare, we are committed to producing high-quality condoms that go above and beyond the ethical demands of our customers. Our entire range is 100% cruelty-free, with no animal testing involved at any stage of production. Moreover, we use no casein, a milk-derived protein commonly used to make latex condoms soft and pliable.

EXS condoms are available in a variety of sizes and thicknesses to suit different preferences:
- The smallest condom is the EXS Snug Fit which has a flat width 49mm.
- Our largest is the EXS Jumbo which has a flat width of 69mm.
In response to growing demand, we’ve also introduced ultra-thin options:
