Introducing the Global Communication Tagline “HORO YOUR LIFE”

Takara standard launches full-scale global branding efforts to enhance brand awareness

OSAKA, Japan, May 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Takara standard Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Joto-ku, Osaka City, Japan; President: Masaru Komori), a leading manufacturer of residential equipment such as system kitchens and bathrooms, has announced the launch of its global communication tagline, “HORO YOUR LIFE,” aimed at strengthening its brand presence in overseas markets. In line with this initiative, the company launched official social media accounts on RED (Xiaohongshu) in Mainland China and Facebook in Taiwan region on April 21, 2025.

Since initiating full-scale overseas operations in 2015, Takara standard has steadily increased sales by leveraging its unique, high-quality enamel-coated steel, known as Takara Horo. With a mid-term goal of achieving JPY 10 billion in overseas sales by fiscal year 2030, the company is steadily expanding its local sales support systems and operational infrastructure.

New Global Communication Tagline: “HORO YOUR LIFE”
To reinforce its position as the only manufacturer of home fixtures made with Takara’s proprietary enamel technology, the company will promote the brand name Takara HORO globally. The tagline “HORO YOUR LIFE” expresses the company’s vision to enrich and enhance lives around the world through its enamel-coated steel products. Future campaigns will highlight the material’s signature features—easy maintenance, durability, and functionality—paired with clean, modern visuals of pristine white enamel kitchens.

Official Social Media Accounts Launched in Mainland China and Taiwan region
Takara standard has launched an official account on RED (Xiaohongshu), a Chinese social platform with over 300 million monthly active users. As word-of-mouth content on RED significantly influences purchasing decisions, the platform serves as an ideal touchpoint to engage Mainland Chinese consumers in their everyday lives. In Taiwan region, the company launched an official Facebook account, given the platform’s continued popularity and broad user base.

Content will be tailored to each region and will include product care tips, new product announcements, and event information. Through these efforts, the company aims to reach 10,000 followers and build a strong base of loyal fans across the region.

As part of its Mid-Term Management Plan 2026, Takara standard has identified global expansion as a key strategy in transforming its revenue structure. In April 2025, the company will also establish its first overseas branch in Taiwan region. With a strong focus on Asia, one of the most promising markets for future growth, Takara standard will continue to strengthen its international operations, aiming to achieve JPY10 billion in overseas sales by 2030.

Appendix

Takara standard’s HORO material:

“HORO” is a material that combines the strength of iron with the beauty of glass. Takara standard developed this proprietary HORO material, which overcomes the breakage of glass, over many years. Takara standard’s “High-Quality HORO” showcases the robustness of iron, providing resilience against impacts, while the glass layer acts as a barrier against dirt and moisture. The durability of the enamel surface makes it distinctly different from ordinary enamel pots or other materials.

Until recently, HORO’s surface had a glossy look, however, new products combine enamel with a matt finish. This means Takara can provide a variety of surface design products.

  • 10 points that demonstrate the strength of Takara standard’s HORO:
  1. Can quickly wipe up water, easy to clean
  2. Resistant to moisture and mold
  3. Conveniently magnetic and can be used as a family message board
  4. Very shock and crack resistant
  5. Thanks to the ink jet printing tech, it is available in a wide range of colors and designs
  6. The material allows permanent maker pen to be wiped off with water, meaning family can leave temporary messages
  7. Scratch resistant
  8. Heat resistant, giving peace of mind
  9. Environmentally friendly (easily recyclable material; no adhesive used in assembly)
  10. Odor resistant

 

Kenanga Investors Awarded Best Malaysia Large-Cap Equity Fund at Morningstar Awards


KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 5 May 2025 – Kenanga Investors Berhad (“Kenanga Investors”) has been awarded Best Malaysia Large-Cap Equity Fund at the Morningstar Awards 2025, recognising the strong performance of the Kenanga Blue Chip Fund (“KBCF”). This achievement marks a significant milestone for the firm, as KBCF celebrates its third win at this prestigious award and continues to deliver consistent results across varying market conditions.

Datuk Wira Ismitz Matthew De Alwis, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of Kenanga Investors, said, “We are honoured to receive this recognition from Morningstar, one of the most trusted names in investment research. Awards like these reaffirm the value of our investing approach and the importance of staying true to our philosophy.”

The KBCF is guided by a bottom-up investment strategy. It aims to achieve long-term capital growth by investing in companies with relatively larger market capitalisation, with a clear focus on what represents fair value for their expected earnings potential.

Lee Sook Yee, Chief Investment Officer of Kenanga Investors, shared, “KBCF’s performance reflects the strength of our research-driven process. The team works closely to identify the right opportunities, backed by data and an understanding of market dynamics. In Malaysia, domestic growth outlook continues to be strongly driven by an investment upcycle in infrastructure and property. With that in mind, we intend to focus on stock picking for 2025. We maintain a favourable view on sectors such as financials, construction, property, new energy, utilities and healthcare. Ultimately, we believe staying nimble and responsive will allow us to navigate both uncertainty and opportunity.”

“Our focus is always on creating long-term value for our investors through performance, transparency, and sound governance,” added Datuk Wira De Alwis. “We are grateful for the continued trust our clients and investors place in us, as well as for the dedication of our team.”

The Morningstar fund category awards are based on Morningstar fund data as of 31 December 2024. The awards methodology emphasises the one-year period, but funds must also have delivered strong three-year returns after adjusting for risk within the award peer groups in order to obtain an award. In selecting winners, fund returns are adjusted for risk using the Morningstar Risk, a measure which imposes a higher penalty for downside variation in a fund’s return than it does for upside volatility.

The Award is the latest addition to Kenanga Investors’ recent string of recognitions from the likes of LSEG Lipper Fund Awards 2025 and Asia Asset Management’s 2025 Best of the Best Awards. The firm aims to continue building upon its track record through a robust investment process and a clear, long-term vision that helps clients navigate markets with confidence.
