TOKYO SERIES

Tatami mats made of the new material are the TOKYO and ZEN series.

There are no nutrients in the material that will cause mold to grow.It is a type of tatami mat that does not require special maintenance.

These two new tatami materials do not use rushes.

The core material of the TOKYO Series is different from the core material of the ZEN Series.

Tatami material of TOKYO SEIREIS

The Tokyo Series employs an inorganic combination of different types of plastics as its core material.

This core material is then stretched and remade into the surface of the tatami mats.

As a result, the mats from the TOKYO Series have high endurance and retain their color even when laid under direct sunlight.

Tatami material of ZEN SEIREIS

On the other hand, the ZEN Series employs traditional Japanese papers as its core material.

The papers are made into paper strings, which are then woven into the surface of the mats. In addition, the surface of the mats from the ZEN Series is specially processed so that the mats are water-proofed. Liquids falling on these mats will bounce off while retaining their droplet shapes.

Similar to the TOKYO Series, the mats from the ZEN Series also have a higher endurance compared to the traditional Igusa mats and could retain their color when laid under direct sunlight.

Functionally, there are no noticeable differences between these two series.

However, due to the difference in the core material, there is a difference in the appearance as well as the texture of the mats.

The interior of the mats is made using fiver boards.

Tatami mats are manufactured with a special process to ensure that they are thin but not warped.

At present, in Japan, mats that are made using straws carry a high possibility of being defected due to mites or molds. As a result, the material has long become obsolete in the country.

Although the information written on our side specifically stated that the mats are of 1.5cm height, our company can also manufacture mats whose heights are 3 and 5cm. However, please understand that there are no differences in comfort when sleeping or sitting on the mats, even if they are made into different heights.
