Have you ever felt itching or discomfort when clothing touches your skin? In recent years, there has been a noticeable increase in people suffering from atopic dermatitis and allergies, especially in developed countries.
Rising to meet these skin concerns is the pioneering cosmetic maker, "moist fiber," which developed the world's first fiber. I spoke with Teizo Sugino, the director of the Next Research & Innovation Lab at Momotani, about the potential of this new fiber and the story behind its development.

The Mission of Momotani Juntenkan in Tackling Skin Concerns
Founded in 1885 (Meiji 18), Momotani Juntenkan Ltd. started with the creation of "acne-removing beauty water" by its founder to address his wife's skin concerns. Upholding the founding spirit of "wanting to be of service to as many people as possible," the company has continued to launch numerous products to this day.
Many may be familiar with their products like "Moist Labo" and "MEDI SHOT." However, why did a cosmetics company decide to develop a fiber like Moist Fiber?
