Coupang's private-label division, CPLB, has introduced its first upscale private-label brand called Hannundamda, with a focus on household essentials. The brand aims to deliver higher quality products at reasonable prices. The first product in the lineup is Soonyeon premium toilet paper, made with 100% natural, high-weight paper to provide a thicker and more cushioned feel compared to conventional toilet paper.
The sheets are 102 millimeters wide, while the paper weight is 15.5 grams, exceeding the typical range of 13 to 14 grams. This product also contains moisturizing ingredients derived from Vaseline, designed to give a softer and more moisturized experience. CPLB plans to expand Hannundamda beyond toilet paper, adding products in kitchen, household care, and food categories, including kitchen towels made with specially processed high-weight paper to improve absorbency.
