A message from our founder

I came to Thailand in 1988, and the nature here — and the warmth of the people — took hold of me. Ever since, I have wanted to give shape to what a healthy, happy life actually looks like. At the very start, that meant using Thailand's mild climate to build a place where people carrying worries about body or mind could simply be well.

I wanted to help build a society where everyone can live healthily, as themselves. Walking that road, I met two gifts of nature — charcoal and the Rice Bran Enzyme Bath — and it felt very much like fate.

Since founding this company in 2000, we have worked as a bridge between Thailand and Japan, delivering the strength of nature in forms that are useful in everyday life.

We believe that as one person's level of health — their level of happiness — rises, so does that of their family, their community, their society and their country, and in the end it contributes to the health and peace of the world. We will keep working honestly toward that.

Yoshinari Yatagai, President and Representative Director

What we believe

A woman relaxing outdoors

Contributing to health

Products and services drawn from what nature provides, in support of healthier everyday living.

A smiling family

Contributing to happiness

Time that feels good and lives that feel full — we want to have a hand in both.

Health is the foundation happiness rests on. Our mission is to raise each person's level of health, which is to say their level of happiness.

As that rises, so does the health and happiness of their family, their community, their society and their nation — and through them, we are convinced, the health and peace of the world.
