「During the interim accounting period, sales of domestic heating equipment increased as distribution inventory carried over from last year returned to normal, while exports of oil-fired heating equipment also grew. Sales of humidifiers remained firm because distribution inventory carried over from last year was low and rollout at retailers progressed smoothly.」
In contrast to the rollout impact from retailers reducing inventories and restricting purchases, which had been reported previously, the company stated that domestic distribution inventories of heating equipment normalized, while low humidifier inventories allowed rollout to proceed smoothly. The impact was reduced as sales of heating and environmental equipment increased. - FY2025-H1MaterialisedAnnual report

「For humidifiers, the company launched 2 LX series models that can be operated remotely using a smart remote control as a new function, and 3 RXT series hybrid humidifier models equipped with the Easy Replacement Tray Cover. Including these models, the company sells products across 6 series, comprising 20 models.」
The company stated that, although orders for humidifiers were strong, the rollout of products was delayed because some major mass retailers restricted purchases. Delays in rollout by the sales channel actually contributed to environmental equipment sales falling below the same period of the previous year.
