From Stationery to Gadgets: KOKUYO Launches "Stand Tool Pouch <Hacobiz 2>" for Organized Storage of Work Tools

KOKUYO Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Osaka City / President: Hidekuni Kuroda) will launch the "Stand Tool Pouch <Hacobiz 2>" on Wednesday, April 8, 2026. This product is an updated version of the "Stand Tool Pouch <Hacobiz>" series, which allows users to store work tools around their desk in a standing position. The new <Hacobiz 2> features an updated design where the opening expands forward and stands on its own simply by unzipping, allowing for easy organization and visibility of everything from stationery to gadgets like mice and AC adapters.

The "Stand Tool Pouch <Hacobiz>" series was launched in February 2019 in response to the growing need to carry work tools together. It is a popular storage product series, especially among office workers who frequently move within the office, due to its ability to store work tools upright for easy visibility.

However, with the recent further spread of free-address offices, many requests were received from users who wanted to store PC peripherals and gadgets such as mice, AC adapters, and cables together. In response to these user voices and changes in work styles, we have updated the design to enhance the storage capacity for work tools and speed up the start of work.

It features a space to store larger gadgets such as mice and AC adapters, and six pockets and dividers to easily organize stationery and small items like pens and earphones, significantly increasing storage capacity. Additionally, the structure allows the opening to expand forward and stand on its own simply by unzipping, enabling quick retrieval of necessary items. This supports the improvement of work efficiency for office workers in free-address environments.
