[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heeyoon] Yuhan-Kimberly's diaper brand Huggies Naturemade announced on the 28th the launch of the ‘Huggies Naturemade’ diapers reinforced with sugarcane-derived biomass materials.

This new product has expanded the use of sugarcane-derived biomass materials to the waistband of the ‘Huggies Naturemade’ Stage 1 and 2 products. So far, Yuhan-Kimberly has been extending the use of biomass materials to the inner cover, leg bands, and magic belt of this product.

For the new pant-type product, a 360-degree stretch waistband has been newly applied to provide greater comfort for baby activities. In addition, the company explained that the application of high-speed absorption channel technology offers a fresher wearing experience with faster absorption compared to existing products.

Earlier, Yuhan-Kimberly announced Environmental Management 3.0 and set a goal to achieve more than 95% of product sales using sustainable materials by 2030 to contribute to the global environment.

A Yuhan-Kimberly official stated, “Huggies will actively meet consumer expectations by accelerating the development and expansion of sustainable material technologies.”
