The company highly evaluated 'Mushulet' for its odor-proof, antibacterial, and insect-proof functions, as well as its certification under the NPO Japan Toilet Research Institute's standards. This move is seen as essential for protecting customers, employees, and facilities while ensuring business continuity.

### Product Features of 'Mushulet' - **High Performance:** Designed to be odor-proof, antibacterial, and insect-proof. - **Long-term Storage:** Made in Japan with a 10-year shelf life. - **Certifications:** Registered as a compliant product under the 'Portable Toilet Standards Ver. 1.0' by the NPO Japan Toilet Research Institute. - **Inclusivity:** Includes instructions in five languages (Japanese, English, Chinese, Korean, and Spanish) to accommodate international visitors.
