MIAMI—Even when people wear condoms with the best intentions in mind—to prevent pregnancy and protect against sexually transmitted infections—things sometimes happen that reduce a condom’s effectiveness. Based on his own fumble with a condom that resulted in a lost opportunity for passion, Beau Thompson (president and founder of Grove Medical LLC) spent years inventing and perfecting the new condom technology known as Sensis Condoms with QuikStrips.
What makes Sensis condoms with QuikStrips different is the application technology. The patented QuikStrips work much like the pull-off tabs on a bandage; this application method helps ensure the condom goes on quickly and correctly every time. With Sensis condoms, there is always appropriate spacing at the reservoir tip, thus reducing the chance of condom breakage. Because the condom is applied using pull-off tabs, there is no need to touch the actual condom—which helps reduce the chance of a tear or nick from fingernails.
Additionally, Sensis condoms feature raised-texture ridges on the QuikStrips, ensuring right-side-on-application—even in the dark. A recent study evaluating condom use errors among college men found that 30 percent of participants reported placing the condom on upside down and flipping it over prior to use—many people fail to realize that flipping the condom soils it and makes the transmission of sexually transmitted infections a possibility.
Beyond the health benefits associated with Sensis condoms, this new condom technology also presents benefits in the pleasure department. Because of the easy-to-use QuikStrips, Sensis condoms go on in a split second—helping to eliminate distractions or killing the moment. Using the QuikStrips also encourages a “participatory” application of the condom—many people indicate using a Sensis condom is “more fun” than the usual condom because of the opportunity for partners to work together to apply the condom.
Sensis condoms are available nationwide through retail chains like Hustler Hollywood, Castle Megastores and Condoms To Go, and through key distribution partners like Entrenue, Eldorado, Choice Supply and Honey’s Place. Lucom USA is the acting sales representation for Grove Medical.
An introduction kit that includes free demonstration condoms, a condom demonstrator, and the right amount of product to maximize store sales is available for interested retailers.
