The lighter luggage proposed in this campaign will save travelers the trouble of packing and increase the freedom of travel, while at the same time reducing the weight of airplanes, thereby reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. This synergistic effect will result in sustainable travel and promote a sustainable future for individuals, businesses, and the global environment as a whole.



■ Campaign Details

The campaign, which will be launched on SDG Day (March 17), will highlight the environmentally friendly characteristics of the KOTSKAN AERODUCT and the importance of reducing the amount of luggage when traveling, through usage content, testimonials, and product demonstrations. This will enable travelers to practice low-impact travel methods and actively contribute to the airline industry's efforts to become carbon neutral.

Marvin Trading Company and the FDA are taking a joint step toward a sustainable future. Our small actions can lead to a big environmental impact.

Weight reduction comparison and mechanism


■Why reduce baggage?

Why bring a change of clothes in the first place? This is why you bring a change of clothes to keep your clothes clean since it is difficult to wash them in a hotel. The logic is that if this is guaranteed to be washed and dried reliably, a change of clothes can be minimized. With less clothing, luggage becomes dramatically lighter and smaller.

This clothes drying balloon is a product that can dry a Y-shirt + socks + underwear at the same time in as little as 10 minutes using a hotel dryer. The key to reducing the number of changes of clothes is to dry them quickly and reliably.

Currently, we are focusing on direct sales of our own original products, which are greatly affected by the record-breaking depreciation of the yen, soaring raw material prices, and rising transportation costs.
