The bond between FANCL, which stands for Beauty and Health, and Kirin, which connects Food & Beverages and Pharmaceuticals.

In collaboration with the popular product Calolimit^®, a series of non-alcoholic drinks, Kirin x FANCL Calolimit Apple Sparkling, Kirin x FANCL Calolimit Blended Tea, and Mercian x FANCL Calolimit Non-alcoholic Umeshu Taste, have been launched.

The companies have developed beverages that easily support health, such as Kirin x FANCL Amino SUPLI Plus and Gogo-no-Kocha Apple Tea Plus, which take advantage of FANCL's research results. In addition, they have collaborated on a wide range of products, including the Beauty Bouquet, which is a series of basic cosmetics with new ingredients that were created through joint research.

Collaboration can also be found in the development of materials using beer brewing lees, a byproduct of the production of KIRIN ICHIBAN, for FANCL's cosmetics packaging. This is an environmentally friendly approach that combines FANCL's desire to find plant-derived packaging materials and Kirin's search for ways to utilize byproducts.

This package is made of hemicellulose, an ingredient extracted from beer brewing lees, and although it looks like plastic, it can be disposed of as burnable trash. In addition, because it is lighter than plastic, it helps reduce CO₂ emissions during transportation.

FANCL began in 1980 when its founder, Kenji Ikemori, started mail order sales of cosmetics to solve women's skin problems.

In addition to successfully developing additive-free cosmetics and spreading them throughout the world, we were the first in Japan to use the word "supplement" to sell health food products, and we have developed our business with the desire to eliminate "disadvantages" such as anxiety and inconvenience in the world.

With this in mind, we will continue to engage in various collaborations as a member of the Kirin Group, which contributes to mind x body and inside x outside health.

In order to contribute to the improvement of our customers' mental and physical health, the Kirin Group has other members involved in health besides FANCL.

For example, Koiwai Dairy Products and Kyowa Hakko Bio are engaged in manufacturing, utilizing "fermentation" technology and research that began in the Kirin Group's beer business, which is the starting point of the Kirin Group. The Kirin Group is developing its business in a wide range of areas, from Food & Beverages to Pharmaceuticals, based on Fermentation and Biotechnology.

More than a century has passed since the launch of Koiwai Pure Butter, a symbol of Koiwai's manufacturing. Utilizing the fermentation technology it has developed over the years, Koiwai Dairy Products has produced many products, including Koiwai 100% Fresh Milk Yogurt. While cherishing the bounty of the earth, Koiwai Dairy Products continues to deliver delicious and delightful products to its customers.

And now, we are also releasing food with function claims for immune care that is easily accessible and delicious, such as Koiwai iMUSE Fresh Milk Yogurt.

Kyowa Hakko Bio is developing a bio-chemical business utilizing cutting-edge fermentation technologies for all those who wish to "give the energy of today to themselves 10 years from now." We support a healthy and prosperous future by developing and providing raw materials for pharmaceuticals, supplements, and cosmetics.
