We asked this question to Pasante directly - and they replied with an emphatic yes! All Pasante products we stock (including condoms of all shapes and sizes and all lubes) are vegan friendly. Yes, that's correct - every single Pasante product stocked here at Condoms.uk is vegan friendly!
Pasante Condoms and Lubricants
Purchased by one of the world’s largest condom manufacturers, Karex, back in 2016, UK based Pasante combines offers the highest safety and reliability standards (thanks rigorous testing to ISO 13485 standards) with a comparatively low price point.

Discreet delivery on Pasante products
At this point (we’re basically in future times now, I mean we’re pretty much in the 2030s and I demand rocket boots), everyone has pretty much purchased protection by now. However, we also understand that, especially here in the UK, most people don’t want to advertise their purchase as it arrives wrapped in brightly coloured and obviously branded packaging.
We had to cancel a pretty big packaging order.
You’ll be pleased to know, therefore, that we’ll deliver your Pasante condoms, lubricants and accessories in generic, nondescript packaging (like the below). Nobody will ever know it’s not just another of your many Shein or Vinted deliveries (you’re better than Temu, right?).
What is Pasante?
Pasante is one of the UK’s largest condom manufacturers, exporting to more than 60 countries, and was the most successful independent manufacturer in the UK until 2016, when it was acquired by Karex, the world's largest condom manufacturer. Pasante is now one of the many brand names that parent company Pasante Healthcare Ltd uses to label its range of sexual health products.
Still based in the UK, the company operates from its headquarters in West Sussex, and manufactures its products to the highest British standards - ensuring it meets all necessary certifications and registrations for relevant products, including ISO 13485, Medical Device Directive, In Vitro Diagnostic Directive, BSI Kitemark, and the EU and UK Cosmetics Directives.
Are Pasante condoms any good?
Because the UK and EU have some of the strictest regulations for condoms and intimate lubricant, everything manufactured by Pasante is made of high quality raw materials and passes the same rigorous testing before being sold - as with all of the products we stock, because we only purchase from approved UK suppliers or directly from the manufacturer.
Choosing the right Pasante condoms for you
Like most condom brands, Pasante manufactures an extensive range of condoms for all users and desires. Often, unsatisfactory sexual experiences while wearing a condom is the result of wearing the wrong kind of condom. Wearing the right condom is crucial to guarantee satisfaction and safety for you and your partner. You can choose from the following ranges (there’s loads, like loads and loads, so you should be able to find something right for you):
| Product Name | Width | Length | Thickness | Lubricant | Additional Info |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pasante Naturelle | 54mm | 190mm | 0.075mm | Silicone-based | Odourless and tasteless, these condoms have an anatomical, easy-on shape that allows for more ‘headroom’ and a wide range of movement. |
| Pasante Regular | 54mm | 190mm | 0.065mm | Silicone-based | The straight walls of this variety make them ideal for men with less penis girth. |
| Pasante Trim | 49mm | 180mm | 0.07mm | Silicone-based | Designed for those needing a smaller size, Pasante Trim condoms have the same length as Pasante Regular, but less girth. |
| Pasante King Size | 60mm | 205mm | 0.07mm | Silicone-based | Pasante King Size condoms are well suited for the well endowed, with a nominal width of 60mm and 205mm of length. |
| Pasante Super King | 69mm | 210mm | 0.07mm | Silicone-based | The largest condoms from the brand, Pasante Super King, have a nominal width of 69mm and 210mm of length, making them perfect for those who need the generous dimensions of a roomier condom. |
| Pasante Silk Thin | 53mm | 190mm | 0.04mm | Silicone-based | The smooth, silky texture of this condom delivers natural skin-on-skin sensations. |
| Pasante Feel | 53mm | 190mm | 0.05mm | Silicone-based | Serves as a midway point between the thickness of the Silk Thin and Regular varieties. |

| Pasante Black Velvet | 56mm | 190mm | 0.07mm | Silicone-based | Black coloured and larger than standard Pasante sizes, with a nominal width of 56mm at base, but wider at the head. |
Picking the right size
Pasante condoms, like the people and penises that require them, come in various sizes, from extra small to extra large. The easiest way to tell the right size for you is by measuring your penis girth (or circumference).
To do this, all you need is a string, a marker pen, and a ruler. Wrap the string around the thickest part of your erect penis and draw a line where the end of the string overlaps. Use a ruler to measure the distance, and this gives the circumference (you can also use a fabric tape measure - we recommend against using a metal tape measure as it can produce inaccurate results and carries danger of amputation, those things retract real quick).
Now, use this number to select the right Pasante condom size for you. All Pasante condoms are long enough to accommodate various penis lengths, so as long as their width is correct, you don't have to worry about feeling constricted.
Picking the right thickness
Do you want skin-on-skin sensations, or are you happier with a thicker barrier to enhance resistance? Pasante condoms have various thicknesses and while all are safe, some are better suited to some types of sex than others. For more intense sex, for example, it is recommended to choose a regular or thicker condom, which can prevent your condom breaking due to friction.
Standard vs. Textured vs. Sensation condoms
Another thing that can make or break your experience with a condom is the type of condom you use. Standard condoms are an excellent choice when all you need is protection, but if you want to keep sensations as close as possible to natural, thinner condoms are better for you.
Textured condoms often offer more prolonged or targeted stimulation, with dotted and ribbed patterns (alone or combined) providing greater stimulation, enhancing pleasure and leading to a faster climax.
Sensation condoms can help in various situations (and are very fun to use) by adding additional sensations, while flavoured condoms provide a sweet or fresh taste and pleasant smell, which can help overcome the taste and odour of latex for those who find it off-putting. Finally, “delay effect” condoms aim to prevent premature ejaculation - which Pasante achieves through the use of a 1% lidocaine hydrochloride numbing agent.
Can I use Pasante condoms for any type of sex?
TL;DR: Yes.
All Pasante condoms can be used for all types of sex, but if you're looking for a specific product which is designed to stand up to, well, heavy use, Pasante Extra condoms should suit your needs.
Can Pasante condoms cause an allergic reaction?
Latex allergy is an uncommon condition which affects fewer than 1 in 1,000 people in the UK (though estimates on latex sensitivity put it at between 1% and 6% of the population). In the rare case you or your partner are allergic to latex, Pasante latex condoms can cause an allergic reaction and should therefore be avoided.
Allergic reactions to latex can include rashes and hives in areas that didn't come in contact with the condom, mild to moderate swelling and rashes in the area(s) that did, a runny nose, congestion, and watery eyes (get your mind out of the gutter). Typically, these symptoms cease as soon as you remove the condom.
If you or your partner are allergic to latex, all you have to do is use a non-latex condom, such as Pasante Unique. Non-latex condoms are hypoallergenic and cannot cause an allergic reaction.
What types of lubricants does Pasante make?
Besides condoms, Pasante also manufactures a range of intimate lubes compatible with all types of condoms and most toys.
Pasante Gentle Light Lube
A light, water-based lube, suitable for people with sensitive skin, Pasante Gentle Light Lube doesn't contain parabens or other harmful chemicals. It is odourless, tasteless, and colourless; making it an excellent choice for alleviating the symptoms of dryness, for use with toys (though you should always patch test) or just improving enjoyment - it’s fun to be slippy sometimes. The product is:
-
Condom-friendly
-
Vegan friendly
-
Hand-luggage approved
Pasante flavoured lubes
Water-based lubricants, Pasante’s flavoured lubes come in a range of delicious flavours and scents which are perfect to cover the odour and taste of latex condoms. Like all other lubes from the brand, the flavoured lubes are vegan, hand-luggage approved, and contain no pesky chemicals.
