Benefits of sleeping rush:
Clean the air
The inside of a rush has a honeycomb structure similar to a sponge, which has a large surface area. Therefore, when rushes breathe, they absorb nitrogen dioxide and formaldehyde from the air, purifying the air.
Deodorizing ability
It reduces the causative substances (ammonia, acetic acid, isovaleric acid, indole, trimethylamine, nonenal, pyridine, etc.) that cause sweat odor, aging odor, pet odor, cigarette odor, etc. that occur in daily life, and reduces bad odors.
Humidity control effect
Rush has an extremely high humidity regulating ability for a natural material. It has the ability to absorb moisture from the air when it is humid and release moisture when it is dry.
Relax
It is said that ``Tatami is the forest inside the room.'' Rush contains aromatic components of wood and has a healing effect similar to forest bathing. It has been confirmed that children who study in a tatami space can maintain their concentration and improve their grades.

Difference between domestic rush and Chinese rush
Domestic rushes have more fibers than those produced in China. In other words, it is elastic. Domestic rush, which grows in clean water and rich land, has a thick and durable skin, making it less likely to produce crumbs and being highly durable.

Hiba essence processing
Hiba Essence, extracted from Hiba trees in Aomori Prefecture, is extracted and sprayed using the manufacturer's proprietary technology. A natural substance called hinokitiol contained in Hiba essence has extremely high antibacterial properties.

Rush is a natural material, so it is easier to cut than chemical materials. If the weaving system breaks in the middle of the machine during weaving, the part you want to cut may pop out, as shown in the photo on the right. This is not a defect, but a phenomenon called "breakage". If you cut the breakage with scissors or nail clippers, you can use it as is.
