Durex Perfect Glide Lube

Durex Perfect Glide is a premium silicone-based lubricant designed for long-lasting performance, offering up to three times the duration of standard water-based gels. The brand itself has a storied history dating back to 1915 when L.A. Jackson established the London Rubber Company in the United Kingdom. The Durex name, an acronym for "Durability, Reliability, and Excellence," was officially registered in 1929.

Historically, Durex manufacturing was centered in the UK; however, the last British factory closed in 2007. Today, production is globalized, with most lubricants like Perfect Glide being manufactured in Thailand, which serves as a major hub for the brand's production alongside facilities in China and India.

Ownership of the brand transitioned from the original London Rubber Company to SSL International before being acquired in 2010 by Reckitt (formerly Reckitt Benckiser). As of 2026, Reckitt remains the ultimate owner, managing Durex as a core part of its global health and sexual wellbeing portfolio from its headquarters in Slough, United Kingdom.
