Yashinomi Detergent and the Value of Water
When Yashinomi Detergent was launched in 1971, Japan was experiencing rapid economic growth, which unfortunately brought about numerous environmental issues, including river pollution. To mitigate further environmental damage, SARAYA focused on palm-derived cleaning ingredients that decompose quickly in wastewater, leading to the birth of Yashinomi Detergent.
As we approach 2025, the target year for achieving the SDGs, SARAYA is using this chance to revisit the theme of “the richness of water”, which inspired the original development of Yashinomi Detergent. Through various products and campaigns, SARAYA will continue to promote the importance of water conservation.
