Body Care

Today, with the rapid changes in social and living environments, and the diversification of values and lifestyles, there is growing interest in maintaining health through self-care. To address the discomforts felt by each and every one of our consumers, we are developing a wide range of products that utilize life science and interface science, as well as bringing together our technological research capabilities cultivated through the development of fundamental technologies, to develop total health care products and services that enable individuals to practice self-care in order to maintain their health and well-being in a natural and positive way.
