HONG KONG, Jan. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Authentic ‘Hong Kong Sentiments’ are often found within the most intimate details of daily life. As a global leader in oral care with a legacy spanning over 200 years, Colgate has grown alongside generations of Hong Kong families, witnessing the city’s evolution firsthand. To reinforce its commitment to professional care, Colgate is proud to unveil the ‘Hong Kong Sentiments’ Themed Toothbrush Collection in early 2026.

In conjunction with the product launch, Colgate will deploy a series of large-scale, toothbrush-themed ‘3D Posting box’ installations across Hong Kong, Kowloon, and the New Territories. These interactive landmarks, alongside a series of ‘Hong Kong Sentiments’ pop-up brand activations, are designed to engage the public in the heart of the city’s busiest districts. Visitors are invited to participate in these immersive experiences, where they can collect exclusive postcards and promotional vouchers. Through this campaign, Colgate encourages citizens to preserve their cherished memories of Hong Kong and embrace the New Year with a healthy, confident smile.
The collection is not merely a retrospective of the past, but an appreciation of the nuanced details that still resonate within our contemporary daily routines.
True ‘Hong Kong Sentiments’ extend beyond archival photographs, residing deeply within our collective sensory memories. Recognizing this unique urban pulse, Colgate has intentionally moved away from a somber, retrospective aesthetic for its new collection. Instead, the brand has chosen a vibrant, spirited design language to reinterpret the city’s essence. By artfully capturing the leisurely pace of the Star Ferry, the luminous skyline of Victoria Harbour, and the exuberant atmosphere of the Cheung Chau Bun Festival, Colgate has distilled these iconic silhouettes into minimalist designs, seamlessly integrating the spirit of Hong Kong into the daily oral care experience.
Through this distinctive design, Colgate aims to imbue the daily routine with a sense of the city’s singular charm and vitality. By celebrating these refined details of local life, the collection serves as a daily reminder for consumers to cherish their heritage while prioritizing professional oral health. Colgate‘s ultimate vision is to empower the people of Hong Kong to showcase their most healthy and confident smiles, embracing each day with a revitalized spirit and a profound appreciation for the city’s vibrant narrative.
