Yuryo Kokusai Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Fukuoka Prefecture), which plans and sells lifestyle goods, has launched the "Cooling Evaporative Cooling Handy Fan," a new product from its "Lafuture" brand. This fan combines a powerful airflow of up to 6.7m/s with mist and will be available from June 2026 on the official online shop and other retailers. According to the latest 3-month forecast released by the Japan Meteorological Agency on June 23, 2026 (*1), this summer's temperatures are expected to be "higher than average" nationwide. To address the issue of handy fans blowing hot air like a hair dryer during consecutive days of extreme heat, this product utilizes the principle of evaporative cooling. It harnesses the mechanism of lowering surrounding heat as water evaporates, providing an efficient and immediate cooling sensation through synergy with the airflow. As the definitive item for a comfortable summer, it is being fully rolled out at various shops at an open price. *1 Source: Japan Meteorological Agency "3-Month Forecast Explanation Material (Released June 23, 2026)" https://www.data.jma.go.jp/cpd/longfcst/kaisetsu/?term=P3M A handy fan that cools with evaporative cooling from mist and a maximum wind speed of 6.7m/s.

However, many users complain that they "just stir hot air and make it hotter." Therefore, we planned a product that not only blows air but also incorporates the principle of "evaporative cooling," which lowers surrounding heat as water evaporates. By fusing powerful airflow with fine mist, we propose a new way to cool down by transforming hot air into cool air. Five Key Features of This Product ■ POINT 1: Next-Level Cooling with Evaporative Cooling Effect Adding mist to the airflow significantly lowers the perceived temperature. By utilizing the "evaporative cooling mechanism" that lo
