The female condom is one of the few barrier methods women can initiate themselves. Demand is growing as brands, NGOs and public-health programs expand dual-protection (STI + pregnancy) offerings. Unlike male condoms, which are dominated by a few large latex factories, female condoms are made from a wider range of materials — natural latex, synthetic nitrile and polyurethane — and production is more specialized.
Below are 10 notable female condom manufacturers and suppliers worldwide, split between established global brands and Chinese OEM houses.
1. The Female Health Company (FHC) — USA / UK / Malaysia
FHC is the original female condom maker and the manufacturer of FC2, the best-known female condom globally. FC2 is a latex-free nitrile sheath with a flexible inner ring, pre-lubricated, and is the only female condom cleared by the US FDA as a Class III device. It also holds CE marking and WHO prequalification for UN procurement, and is registered in over 130 countries.
2. Cupid Limited — India
Cupid Ltd is a listed Indian manufacturer that produces the Cupid female condom, a latex-based female sheath developed as an affordable alternative for public-sector and family-planning programs. It supplies both domestic Indian and international markets and is frequently cited alongside FC2 in comparative clinical studies.
3. Guilin Latex (Jwenan / Gaobang) — Guangxi, China
Founded in 1966, Guilin Latex is one of China's oldest latex medical-device makers and a long-standing UNFPA condom supplier. With nearly 60 years of latex processing, ISO 13485 and CE systems, it produces both male and female latex condoms for brand owners and bulk procurement.
4. HBM Protections (Benow) — Guangxi, China
HBM Protections, a national "little giant" latex manufacturer in Guilin, produces hundreds of millions of latex products a year across condoms and medical gloves. It offers private-label male and female latex condom programs for export buyers.
5. Farmasino Pharmaceuticals (Jiangsu) — China
Farmasino is a Jiangsu-based medical-products exporter offering female and male latex condoms alongside syringes, sutures and infusion sets. It is active on global B2B platforms and suited to buyers consolidating condoms with other medical consumables.
6. Shanghai Personage Hygiene Products — China
Shanghai Personage positions itself as a professional condom OEM/ODM house with around two decades of experience, supporting private-label male and female condom projects with custom foil and packaging.
7. Tianjin Recare Co., Ltd. — China
Tianjin Recare is an active Chinese OEM supplier on Made-in-China and Alibaba, offering factory-price condoms with relatively low MOQs, suitable for smaller brands and distributors testing the female-condom category.
8. Guangzhou Yongai Industrial & Trading — China
Based in the Pearl River Delta, Guangzhou Yongai supplies condom products for export and private-label branding, a typical flexible South China OEM house for brands that want fast turnaround and custom packaging.
9. Dalian Latex Co., Ltd. — Liaoning, China
Dalian Latex is an experienced Chinese latex producer with CE (TÜV Rheinland) and FDA 510(k) clearance, historically focused on male condoms and gloves but available for custom latex sheath and OEM projects.
10. Weilesi Medical & Health Products (Hubei) — China
Weilesi, established in 2013 in the Chibi Economic Development Zone of Hubei, is a specialized condom manufacturer holding the Chinese medical-device registration for natural-latex male condoms. It produces under OEM for domestic brands and public-sector family-planning procurement, and also makes intimate lubricants and hygiene products. As a focused condom-only plant rather than a diversified glove maker, it is worth shortlisting for buyers seeking a dedicated condom OEM with local GMP production.
What to Ask When Sourcing Female Condoms
Material matters. Latex is cheap but triggers allergies; nitrile (FC2 type) is latex-free and stronger; polyurethane is thin and heat-conductive. Confirm which material your target market expects.
Construction. Female condoms need an outer closed ring and an inner flexible ring — check the factory can produce and assemble both consistently.
Certifications. For the EU you need CE under MDR; for the US, FDA 510(k); for UN/NGO procurement, WHO prequalification matters most.
MOQ and sampling. Female condoms are more specialized than male ones, so MOQs are often higher. Always approve pre-production samples.
Lubrication and packaging. Water-based vs silicone lubrication, individual foil vs bulk, retail box design — confirm before order.
FAQs
What is the most widely used female condom brand?FC2, made by The Female Health Company, is the most globally recognized and FDA-cleared female condom; Cupid (India) is another major option for public-sector supply.
Can I get private-label female condoms from China?Yes — several Chinese OEM houses above offer private-label female condoms, but verify the material (latex vs nitrile) and required certifications for your market before bulk order.
Are female condoms latex-free?Not all. FC2 and some nitrile versions are latex-free; basic Chinese OEM female condoms are often natural latex, so confirm material explicitly.
