What is palm?

This is a palm family plant, a dioecious evergreen tree. The trunk stands upright and can reach up to 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 the material for 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 assembling bamboo fences and has wide-ranging applications, including the cultivation of Sanriku wakame seaweed.

Palm Brooms with Original Touches

Based on the traditional method of broom making, we have incorporated our own unique manufacturing techniques, with each piece being handcrafted by skilled artisans. By braiding palm fiber instead of using copper wire at the shoulder section, we have enhanced the design while maintaining sufficient strength.

Kainan City in Wakayama Prefecture is Japan's largest production area for household goods, with its origins tracing back to the palm fiber industry that flourished from the Meiji era onwards. Palm fibers are fine, elastic, and flexible. Traditional palm brooms crafted utilizing these characteristics effectively capture 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.
