Loipos Bottle Warmers Make Everyday Life with Baby Easier and More Fun

When going out with a baby, a variety of luggage and preparations are necessary. In particular, preparations related to breastfeeding, such as securing a place to feed the baby and preparing hot and cold water, are indispensable and time-consuming, placing a heavy burden on parents during childcare. Normally, disinfecting baby bottles requires hot water, disinfectant solution, and disinfectant products specially designed for microwave ovens. However, it is difficult to set up such an environment when away from home, and it is not practical to carry conventional disinfectant products with you due to their size. In many cases, parents have to carry several replacement bottles with them, which not only adds to the bulk of their luggage, but also causes a great deal of stress for parents and children when they are traveling, going home, or attending weddings, funerals, and other occasions when it is difficult to make plans.

The new Loipos Bottle Warmer is a baby bottle sterilization* kit that requires only 20mL of water to sterilize* a baby bottle in 7 minutes, so that even babies with weak immunity and resistance can use it safely. With this kit, there is no need to carry a replacement bottle with you, making it easy to clean and sterilize* baby bottles while on the go.
The kit is also equipped with a function for heating liquid formula. This not only reduces the burden of packing and carrying powdered milk, boiling water, and hot water in situations where it is difficult to carry a lot of luggage, but also eliminates concerns about the temperature and sterilization of milk in situations where the baby is left with grandparents who are not familiar with childcare, and is also useful in the event of a disaster.

*Using "virus removal and sterilization" technology developed and patented through joint research by the National Institute of Physical and Chemical Research, food sanitation experts, and our company.
Proven to be 99.9% effective in sterilization at the highest level. (Patent number: No. 6978020, sterilization test: surveyed by the Japan Food Sanitation Association)

Development background

The development of the Loipos bottle warmer was triggered by the Niigata Chuetsu Earthquake that occurred in October 2004.
In the affected areas, rationed water could not be heated due to power outages, and only cold water was available. October in Niigata was already cold, and with many people asking for hot drinks, the water heater, which did not require a power source, came in handy for many people.

THE "SIMPLE WATER HEATER POT" IS A HEATING KIT DEVELOPED BY PAL CORPORATION THAT USES A HEATING AGENT TO WARM BEVERAGES IN CONTAINERS, AND IS SOLD AS AN OUTDOOR AND DISASTER SUPPLY. WHILE WE WERE THRILLED TO SEE THAT THE HEATING KIT WAS USEFUL TO SO MANY PEOPLE, WE ALSO SAW MOTHERS WITH INFANTS HAVING TROUBLE STERILIZING BABY BOTTLES AND FORMULA FORMULA, AND WE THOUGHT, "WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.

After witnessing the actual situation in the disaster-stricken areas, I felt a strong desire to "protect babies" and "relieve the anxiety of fathers and mothers in times of disaster," which led me to establish Loipos Corporation as an independent company from PAL Corporation, and to devote myself to developing products to protect babies from disasters. He then started Loipos Inc. as an independent company from PAL Corporation. The Loipos Bottle Warmer was born.

The Loipos Bottle Warmer is made with our wish "for the peace of mind of moms, dads, and babies at all times ......".

With the release of this product, we will contribute to the creation of a future in which parents who are struggling to raise their children can enjoy a more enjoyable lifestyle with their babies by reducing the burden on them, as well as to the creation of a child-rearing environment that provides peace of mind even in times of emergency.
