Unicharm Corporation

Unicharm did not stop being a diaper company and turn into something unrelated. It extended technologies refined in sanitary products and disposable diapers across babies, women, older adults and pets, then carried those businesses into roughly 80 countries and regions. FY2025 was a difficult year, with lower sales and profit, but 64.2% of revenue came from overseas, pet care generated ¥156.1bn, and pet plus wellness care represented 38% of sales. The current company is easier to understand through a shared technology platform and widening use cases than through one familiar product.
