[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chunhan] According to Jeonja Land on the 31st, bidet sales have significantly increased this summer, gaining popularity among consumers.


Jeonja Land reported that from the 1st of last month to the 21st of this month, bidet sales rose by 43% compared to the same period last year. This is attributed to heightened interest in hygiene following the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, the continuation of a hot and humid environment, with sudden heavy rains after prolonged high temperatures, which is sensitive to hygiene, is also believed to have influenced this trend.


Major manufacturers are releasing new bidet models with enhanced hygiene management features. Recently, products equipped with automatic nozzle cleaning functions that allow easy nozzle maintenance and antibacterial new material nozzles have been on sale.



A Jeonja Land official stated, “As consumers have started paying attention not only to dust and virus management in the air but also to hygiene management in various aspects of daily life, bidets are showing the characteristics of a quiet strong player.”
