Hola, tengo una duda con esta frase. Al principio pensé que foiled condoms eran los preservativos/condones fallidos pero no creo que sea eso en este caso.
La oración completa: General Descriptions:
“Condom” is a non-sterile, single use device made of natural rubber latex, lubricated with either flavoured or non-flavoured silicone oil or water based
lubricant. It is packed in a rolled-up form in an individual hermetically sealed foil sachet. Foiled condoms are packaged in cardboard consumer cartons.
¿Alguna sugerencia?
Muchas gracias!

preservativos en empaques de aluminio
Para que la redacción del párrafo suene natural en español, hay que refrasearlo.
Los preservativos, protegidos en empaques aluminizados, se empaquetan para el consumidor en cajas de cartón.
Thus, to preserve the psychological sense of the text (and to render it understandable within the framework of the receiving cultures), translators were entitled not only to make radical changes to the literal meaning of the original text, but also to its reference - Umberto Eco, Experiences in Translations.

Horrible esos "empaques" y "empaquetan" en el mismo párrafo.
Los preservativos, protegidos en estuches aluminizados individuales, se empaquetan para el consumidor en cajas de cartón.

Particularmente, un preservativo/condón "envuelto" o "con envoltura" de papel de aluminio me parece que debe ser incómodo para los usuarios...
