From the pottery town of Tajimi City, we address the challenges facing Japan's tile industry and work to bridge traditional culture to the future by offering innovative, eco-friendly tile products as new possibilities.
Due to resource depletion, clay mines are closing one after another. As of 2023, only two sites remain within Tajimi City, raising concerns about the challenges of securing a stable supply of raw materials.
The capacity of Japan's final disposal sites is shrinking every year, making proper waste management an increasingly urgent issue. Local governments are focusing more on initiatives to 'reduce waste volume.'
Japan's waste treatment technology: the 'melting furnace'. By processing waste at higher temperatures than traditional incinerators, molten slag is produced. Molten slag reduces waste volume and neutralizes harmful substances.
Molten slag is a recycled material gaining attention as an alternative raw material for tiles. By utilizing this material, we aim to address both the depletion of raw materials and Japan's waste management challenges.
We collaborate with other companies and industries to develop raw materials, exploring ways to reuse industrial waste and identify new recyclable materials.
We are redefining the value of recycled materials to create tile products that lead us into the future. These next-generation options seamlessly blend 'environmental sustainability' with 'design appeal'.
Aesthetic design that can only be achieved with recycled tiles.
We create spaces that are not only environmentally friendly but also beautiful and full of character.
