Moraine

What Moraine does

Moraine Corporation is a privately held Japanese company founded in 1993 and headquartered in Nakano-ku, Tokyo, specializing in infection prevention and control for healthcare-associated settings. The company serves hospitals, medical clinics, dental practices, nursing/elderly care facilities, and food manufacturing customers across Japan, pairing product sales with infection-control consulting, operational support, seminar planning, and correct-usage guidance. Its offering combines a physical product portfolio spanning 200+ items across 29+ categories with a content and education layer, including the Japanese-language edition of the Journal of Hospital Infection (JHI Summary), a PPE selection navigation portal, webinars, and game-based training tools.

The core product technology is sourced substantially from international manufacturers and distributed by Moraine in Japan. Central to this is an exclusive Japan distribution relationship with UK-based GAMA Healthcare for the Clinell brand — notably Clinell Universal combined cleaning-and-disinfection wipes carrying EN standard certifications (EN13727, EN14476, EN16615) with efficacy validated on wipe-extracted liquid. The broader catalog includes Glacia-series nitrile gloves, Zero Apron single-use aprons, the Capsule Suit Mark-II full-body DuPont Tyvek protective suit designed for use with the CleanSpace HALO powered air-purifying respirator (HEPA filtration, breath-synchronized fan), the Ninjo bedpan washer, the UVDI-360 UV-C disinfection system, the CareEl all-in-one incontinence cleansing wipe, and the water-free Hygiene Bag excrement/vomit disposal series.

The business model is hardware/product sales-driven, executed through a sales-led and consulting-led go-to-market motion. Revenue is generated primarily via direct sales to medical institutions and an e-commerce online store (morainestore.jp), supplemented by channel/distribution partnerships. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and operates on a contact/inquiry basis for enterprise and medical-facility buyers. Marketing is oriented around educational content targeting healthcare professionals (JHI Summary, PPE Navi, webinars, social channels) to build authority and generate inbound product inquiries.
