What is palm?

This is a palm family plant, a dioecious evergreen tree. The trunk stands upright and reaches approximately 10 meters in height. The base of the long petiole forms a large leaf sheath, and the fibers that wrap around the trunk at the base of the leaf sheath become numerous palm products.

Characteristics of palm products

The fibers of palm bark are strong and possess excellent water resistance and corrosion resistance, which is why they have been used since ancient times for ropes, brooms, and scrubbing brushes. Palm rope is used for constructing bamboo fences and has wide applications, including the cultivation of Sanriku wakame seaweed.

A palm broom with added originality

Based on the traditional methods of broom-making, our craftsmen handcraft each piece individually, incorporating our own unique manufacturing techniques. By braiding palm fiber instead of using copper wire for the shoulder section, we achieve enhanced design aesthetics while maintaining sufficient strength.

Kainan City in Wakayama Prefecture is Japan's largest production area for household goods, which originated from the palm fiber industry that flourished from the Meiji era onwards. Palm fibers are fine, elastic, and flexible. Traditional palm brooms that utilize these characteristics catch dust and dirt without stirring them up into the air. They are suitable not only for tatami mats and flooring but also for corners of rooms and stairs that vacuum cleaners cannot reach.
