SDGs initiativesImadate, Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture, the town of Goka, the village of Japanese paper. Yanase Washi is located in the production area of Echizen Washi, which boasts a history of 1500 years.There are two types of handmade washi paper making techniques, one of which is "tamesuki", which is practiced in Europe and the United States. This is a technique for making paper by scooping out the raw material for paper. The other is Nagashi-suki, an ancient Japanese paper-making technique. This technique is literally a technique of making washi paper by flowing "paper stock". Scoop up the paper stock and drain it. Scooping and draining... This is a technique in which this process is repeated to stack up paper layers to make the paper thicker, and by moving the girder and pouring it down, the raw material fibers that become the "paper stock" intertwine, creating durable paper "Washi".Our company uses both techniques to create handmade washi paper, and has continued to cherish and pass down local traditions.

SDGs initiatives■Feathers are originally a by-product of meat and are considered an eco-friendly raw material.They are known as highly functional natural materials and demand is increasing, but production is decreasing. Our main business is the renovation of the down comforters, so the business itself is a SDGs initiative. We believe that promoting our product as an initiative to upcycle the waste (used fabric) generated during this process without discarding it will also lead to SDGs. A common case is replacing all of a company's fluorescent lights with LEDs.

For example, the amount of CO2 emitted during transportation from Papua New Guinea, which has the largest import volume, to Obama City, Fukui Prefecture reaches 35,000kg. On the other hand, if we use domestic thinned cedar lumber, only 1500kg of CO2 emissions are required to transport the lumber from Satoyama (nearby forest/mountain) to Obama City. The difference is 33,500kg. It can be reduced by 96%.
Furthermore, STYLE OF JAPAN makes chopsticks from thinning Satoyama trees that are more than 40 years old and finished growing. By thinning old trees that no longer absorb CO2 and growing young trees that absorb more CO2, 350,000kg of CO2 can be reduced.

In order to create ethical products, we develop and sell durable, washable, and long-lasting paper products made of perennial plants that contribute to CO2 emissions reduction.
