Sagami Rubber Industries announced that it will exhibit a booth at “YOKOHAMA URBAN SPORTS FESTIVAL ’26,” one of Japan’s largest urban sports festivals, held over 2 days, 17 and 18 October 2026, at Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse Event Plaza. Performances by top athletes, hands-on activity areas and a street market will also be held during the event, which is expected to attract visitors ranging from young people to families.
The company will exhibit a booth centered on “Funris.” Funris stands for “Fun First, Respect Always,” and the booth will serve as a place to promote accurate knowledge about sexually transmitted infections and the use of contraceptives. The booth will include sampling, meaning free distribution, an STI prevention awareness panel display and an SNS campaign featuring a prize draw.
The company’s new web media outlet “Funris” will also be introduced. It publishes healthcare and relationship-improvement content from an authentic perspective, with a focus on young female employees. The event overview states that the event dates and venue are as described above and that admission is free. It also notes in advance that quantities of prizes and samples will be limited.
Founded in 1934, Sagami Rubber Industries has pursued technological innovation, including the development of colored condoms and polyurethane condoms. The company has indicated that it will continue to offer ideas centered on love and health.
