PROTEX It Completes IT
PROTEX stands for Protected Sex, and hence emphasizes on protection and

(Kamasutra, Durex, Moods). Protex as a brand would stand for engaging in any kind
of sexual behavior responsibly.

when you use the protection Protex has to offer.
Brands Key Message- Missing it even once is NOT okay
