Kimberly-Clark

Kimberly-Clark appears in 175.女性卫生用品的社会史：比想象中更精彩！ through the U.S. disposable sanitary-pad line that later became Kotex / 高洁丝. The episode uses the company as the comparison point behind Anne’s launch slogan: American women had used similar disposable products decades before many Japanese women could access them.

The source does not make Kimberly-Clark a full business-history case. Its role is to show how Menstrual Product Social History depends on material invention, store embarrassment, advertising, and the social design of buying an intimate product.
