Items that can alleviate the dissatisfaction of menstruation that I felt as a woman have begun to flow into the world, and I am impressed by using them! However, I felt that there were still issues to be solved, and I decided to start a business with two sisters because I thought it would be possible to make it as easy to use as possible, which was the beginning of KANON. KANON IS FROM HER MAIDEN NAME. AND KANON (CANON), WHICH ALSO APPEARS IN THE GREEK SCRIPTURES, MEANS "STANDARD, STANDARD." We named the brand with such a meaning so that by using KANON, we can greatly change the standards of women's menstruation in the world. It is a small little brand founded in Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture with only two sisters. The two sisters are responsible for product design, development, factory search, sample checks, meetings, business negotiations, customer service at exhibitions and sales events, SNS, and packing and shipping preparations at the time of ordering. We want our customers to feel as close to KANON as possible. So that you can convey what kind of people are making the product and how they feel about it.

I first learned about the word femtech from a newspaper article in 2019.

Water-absorbing shorts will be released.

I had used sanitary shorts before, but I remember being interested in the fact that they had a napkin function.

At that time, several companies were selling water-absorbing shorts, so I bought them and tried them.

Before my period, I wasted a lot of unused napkins and conversely, I failed many times because I had too much room.

That was the norm, but the use of water-absorbing shorts changed everything.

It's just a small thing, but why didn't this item exist until now? So much so that I thought.

However, it was felt that there are still many issues to be addressed.

That is, the water absorption part is black, and there were many high-waisted underwear.

To be honest, I thought there was something a little more cute.

On the other hand, floral lace makes the skin itchy because the skin is weak, and I don't want it to be that cute.

And above all, I don't know if my period has started because the water absorption part is black, and I don't know if the dirt has come off.

Can't we do something about it?

We were interested in femtech at once, so we decided to try menstrual cups and stuff.

The only way to use it is an illustration ... When I looked up the video, I found an overseas one, so I somehow saw how to use it and tried it in the bathroom.

I don't know if it's going well, but I don't feel uncomfortable.

I put on a night napkin just in case and spent the night.

Wake up in the morning and go to the bathroom.

If you look at the napkins,

There is no menstrual blood at all!!

I don't smell that peculiar smell at all!!

However, when pulling out the menstrual cup, it was more difficult than I imagined.

I felt that convenience and inconvenience were mixed.

There is a new pleasure. But there are still too many challenges.

Is it possible to improve and provide these issues because they are women?

That was the beginning of KANON.

What are we doing?

We produce water-absorbing shorts and menstrual cups.

Everything is designed, engineered and developed by two people.

In the first place, for those of us who come from a financial background, apparel is an infield in which we have no experience.

First of all, since it is a brand run by two people, when searching for a factory

Where to look for it? I hit a wall (laughs).

It may be the basis of the basics, but I have no help and no acquaintances.

I spent my days searching for sewing factories on the Internet and making phone calls.

However, I couldn't accept it unless I planned to order tens of thousands of copies, and while there were many people paying at the gate, a company in Hyogo Prefecture said that it might be just a story.

From there, the canon water-absorbing shorts were completed while incorporating the wishes of amateurs well.

Making menstrual cups is also a challenge.

First of all, the factory did not know where to go.

Anyway, I checked the raw materials and made the products that handle the raw materials, and I made repeated phone calls, emails, and visits.

"No, I can't..."

Even if you say that you can do it, I was surprised to get an estimate!

Millions of estimates were written there.

Menstrual cups are made of silicone rubber, so they need a mold...

From the prototype stage, the price range is in the hundreds of thousands.

The person I consulted with was a staff member from Hyogo Prefecture.

"It's a little too expensive, let's see if we can do something about it." And.

We teamed up with a company in Kobe City that we met through an introduction from there, and realized a lane that could be factory, manufactured, sterilized, inspected, and sold.

The problem, however, was the inability to design the data.

So, with the help of a Hyogo Prefecture affiliated institution, we spent many months giving shape to our ideas, using a 3D printer, remaking them many times with the most similar materials, and repeating fine-tuning.

And we come to the current shape.

The two of us got through it all, but looking back, it was a very steep road.

Commitment to the product

[Canon Water Absorbent Shorts]

First of all, it looks like a power net with good elasticity, and the outer material uses a fabric that retains heat and dries quickly.

It is very pleasant to the touch and makes it easy for people with sensitive skin to use.

In addition, the inner fabric is deliberately made of light gray coarse fabric.

Dare to use a bright fabric so that you can see the color and amount of menstrual blood,

And put a coarse dough so that menstrual blood does not remain in the supernatant.

It is designed to easily absorb menstrual blood.

In addition, the water absorber is twice as much in the center as the water absorber.

A seam is inserted next to it, and the crotch is slightly heightened, and it has a function to prevent lateral leakage in two stages.

In addition, the crotch cloth is divided into two pieces of fabric, one inside and one outside, so if you want to use a napkin with a honeymoon, you can put it away so that it is not visible from the outside.

* It absorbs up to 80 ml of water, but in that case, it is not recommended to continue wearing it with water absorption so much because the moisture is spreading to the front.

[Canon Mermaid Cup (Menstrual Cup)]

This product has a patent application in Japan.

The shape is very different from the traditional menstrual cup.

Our menstrual cups are made quite soft to relieve pain and fear during insertion.

However, if the whole thing is the same softness, there is a risk that the menstrual cup will not open well in the vagina, so we add a mermaid tail handle and make some of the rubber thicker so that the menstrual cup opens properly when it enters the vagina.

In addition, when draining, the bottom of the menstrual cup is usually crushed with two fingers to drain the cup and menstrual blood, but the menstrual cup is difficult to pull out due to vaginal pressure, and it is difficult to grasp the bottom of the cup, and as a result, the cup does not come out, menstrual blood flows out at once, and the hands become dirty.

Therefore, our menstrual cup can be ejected by passing one finger through the ring attached to the bottom of the menstrual cup to take out the menstrual cup that does not stain the fingers.

◎ Buyer's voice

[Water-absorbing shorts]

・ I couldn't go to the bathroom for a long time and my period came. I was wearing water-absorbing shorts, so when I went to the bathroom, I was able to use it without leaking at all, which was very helpful.

(20s, office worker)

・ I thought that one piece might be a little unreliable, but I was surprised that it absorbed more water than I imagined.

(20s, office worker)

・ The menstrual blood was a little smooth, so it leaked a little.

(Perhaps there was a gap between the body and the crotch of the shorts.) ）

(30s, housewife)

・ Since there are many orimono, ordinary shorts sometimes cause stains on clothes, but when I wear water-absorbing shorts, I don't have to worry about it, and I can spend my time without affecting my clothes, which is very helpful! Now I live in water-absorbing shorts for half a month.

(20s, office worker)

【Menstrual Cup】

・ The softness is different from other companies' menstrual cups, and it fits more tightly than you can imagine, and it is very easy to use without pain even in the vagina. Since there is a handle, it is easy to discharge and there is a sense of security.

(40s, doctor)

・ It's my first time using a menstrual cup, but I wanted to use it because it was so soft, so I started it with my parents and children. It seems that it is often difficult to go to the bathroom when you are a student, so I would like to get used to the menstrual cup and use it.

(Teens, Student/40s, Housewife)

・ I thought that the menstrual cup I bought before was hard and difficult to put in. I was worried that it would be difficult to put in if it was so soft, but it is very easy to use! I bought it as a set with shorts, so I don't have to buy sanitary products with this!

(30s, vaginal trainer)

I wanted to recommend this to my friends. I definitely want to keep using it!

(Student, 20s)
