Liberta Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Tokyo Stock Exchange Standard Market: 4935), a company that distributes products under the concept of “planning joy and making the world more interesting,” announced that its Kabi Tornado brand will launch the chlorine-based washing tub cleaner “Kabi Tornado Premium Chlorine-Based Washing Tub Cleaner” on May 25, 2026, at home centers, drugstores, supermarkets, general merchandise stores, electronics retailers, the Liberta online shop, and e-commerce malls across Japan (*3).
