Cleared Japan’s national safety standards: a bear deterrent spray for hiking, camping, farm work, and everyday protection.

Your Shop Co., Ltd. (Head office: 1-3-20 Nishinagasu-cho, Amagasaki, Hyogo; Representative Director: Naoya Nishimura) has begun manufacturing and wholesale sales of the “Your Shop Bear Deterrent Spray.” The product is an animal deterrent spray that uses natural chili pepper extract, capsaicin, as its active ingredient, and it has cleared safety standards set by the Japanese government. With sufficient performance in both continuous spray time and spray distance, the product has been available at mass retailers and specialty stores since December 1, 2025. Inquiries are increasing following the end of the hibernation season. In addition to outdoor enthusiasts and people working in agriculture and forestry, the company aims to expand availability to a broad range of users in response to the growing issue of “urban bears” appearing in city areas, and has established a domestic wholesale structure in Japan. Background: worsening bear incidents and rising demand for countermeasures In recent years, injuries caused by bears have increased sharply across Japan. Incidents are no longer limited to hiking, gathering wild vegetables, or farm work, but have also reached residential neighborhoods, school routes, and even inside stores. In September 2025, the revised Wildlife Protection and Management Act came into effect, enabling emergency responses in urban areas. At the same time, demand for bear deterrent sprays as a personal self-defense measure has risen to unprecedented levels. Product features: three reliable common capabilities The Your Shop Bear Deterrent Spray is available in two sizes, 260 ml and 110 ml, with the following shared features. Natural chili pepper ingredient: A bear’s sense of smell is more than 1,000 times stronger than that of humans.
