Production Delays and Order Backlog for Trim Ion GRACE

「Trim Ion GRACE accounts for approximately 50% of the sales mix. Given its high water quality and low cost, approximately ¥7 per liter when used for 5 years with the cartridge replaced once a year, we are confident that it will become a highly competitive product once the effects of hydrogen are recognized. Initially, because the product’s higher selling price was expected to limit its share of sales to approximately 25%, but its share rose to approximately 50%, production could not keep pace, resulting in an order backlog of more than ¥100 million. We are already working to establish the necessary production capacity and expect to clear the backlog in November.」
