A Spray on Condom

In an attempt to make the sexual world a safer place, a German company has developed a spray-on condom. Spraykondom has developed a pump that squirts out liquid latex through a multitude of nozzles that cover the erect member with a latex sheath in a matter of seconds. (warning: do not refrigerate this prior to using)

The Institute for Condom Consultancy (in cooperaation with Vinico and Qualo Design) say that they plan to launch a spray-on condom tailor-made for all sizes. The product aimed to help people enjoy better and safer sex lives. Their goal is o develop the perfect condom for men that's suited to every size of penis.

Here is how it works. Users have a spray can into which the man inserts his penis first. At the push of a button it is then coated in a rubber condom. It works by spraying on latex from nozzles on all sides. We call it the '360 degree procedure' -- once round and from top to bottom. They say "It's a bit like a car wash. " It should take about five seconds to use.

Makers of this product " believe it would function more effectively as a contraceptive because it would fit better and not slip."



The necessity for this invention came from the mind of Jan Vinzenz Krause. As a teenager, Krause, now 30, had trouble finding the right size condom. In 2001 he developed an online condom adviser, which provides printable measuring tapes and instructions to help men determine which condom, out of all the brands available in Germany, will fit the best. According to Krause, more than 300,000 people have used the free service.


Actual sales of this item are on hold indefinitely until a faster-drying latex comes along. Meanwhile, Krause is tackling the size problem by preparing to launch a line of condoms in six sizes, instead of the usual one or two. They should be available in Europe starting in September and in the U.S. possibly as early as 2010.
