[Abstract] Recently, OLIVE officially obtained the official license to manufacture Sanrio’s “Mermaid Hangyodon” themed humidifier.

1. Introduction to the Products Covered by This Authorization
The Mermaid Hantun Humidifier, which has now been authorized for mass production, is a core item from Sanrio’s “Mermaid Hantun and Octopus Lily Bath Time” Ichiban Kuji series and is scheduled to go on sale across all channels in Japan in September 2026.
The product features the three-dimensional IP character of Mermaid Hantun as its main design element and incorporates ultrasonic mist humidification functionality, targeting three primary home settings: bedrooms, bathrooms, and desktops. Combining collectible appeal with practical humidification functionality, this product is a popular IP-themed home appliance designed for the Japanese market.
Leveraging our company’s years of experience in small appliance development, this product will be produced entirely in-house through the entire process—from the electronic atomization module and structural molds to waterproofing processes and faithful reproduction of the IP’s appearance. We will strictly adhere to Sanrio’s official design specifications, quality control standards, and Japanese home appliance safety regulations to ensure the product’s visual accuracy, operational safety, and long-term durability.
