SYDNEY — After many years of using contract manufacturers, Sensuous has taken full control of production, making its own sexual health products, along with hand sanitizer.
With new premises and a multitude of fully automatic production equipment, Sensuous’ plant went operational in February — and within a few weeks demand from a different source started to emerge.
“It was an extremely exciting step to open our own manufacturing facility but never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine that we would be producing anything other than our own products,” Sensuous Managing Director Keith Jones said. “I got back from the U.S. in early March and on the plane, it was evident that even by then many more people were using a lot more hand sanitizer than you normally see. Within a few days of being back calls were already coming in asking if we could produce hand sanitizer.”
The company decided to help by producing bulk product so that customers could refill their own bottles.
"We came up with the name 'Savvy San' and produced it in 5 liter jerry cans and as soon as it was made we started to receive orders," said Jones. "We sent the call out to our adult store customers and many came back with orders straight away, with one company immediately buying six."
The company says it will "absolutely not" be diverging away from sexual wellness products.
“The sales of some of our best sellers such as Edge, Raging Bull and Frenzy continue to rise year-on-year domestically and internationally and we are very pleased that we now have our own facility to be able to react immediately to cater to small through large order demands,” Jones said, adding that the company will soon be producing a new version of Raging Bull.
