About the brand

We manufacture functional ceramic charcoal in-house using thinned wood as a raw material. We have commercialized leg warmers and socks made of natural materials such as silk and organic cotton to keep warm and cold.

Functional ceramic charcoal has a function (patented) that selects unpleasant odors and deodorizes them, so it can be used as both a deodorizing material and an aroma plate, and interiors that purify the air are also commercialized.

It is also used as a material for commercial purposes (construction and kitchens). Kinokoto was started in 2009 by ASCAM Co., Ltd., which manufactures functional ceramic charcoal.

70% of Japan's land area is forested. Forests also play an important role in absorbing carbon dioxide, which is the cause of global warming. However, forest care is actually lacking.

Twenty-five years ago, we searched for an effective way to utilize thinned wood and arrived at the development and production of functional ceramic charcoal. In addition to creating products that utilize materials, we are also working on manufacturing with the hope that it will be an opportunity to increase the value and potential of the forest environment and wood that we are currently located in.

What are we doing?

There is another necessary material for functional ceramic charcoal, which is made mainly from thinned cypress and cedar wood grown in the mountainous areas of Shizuoka Prefecture. It is a clay mineral with properties similar to diatomaceous earth.

By mixing this clay mineral with moisture and wood in a delicate balance, you can coat the wood with clay minerals. After that, it is completed by carbonizing at about 850°C using our own manufacturing equipment.

Functional ceramic charcoal has excellent moisture absorption and desorption properties derived from clay minerals, deodorizing properties derived from charcoal, and a function (patented) to sort and deodorize odors.

In the 25 years since its development, its use as a building material using its humidity control function has increased, and it is now also used in systems for air purification in theme parks and large buildings.

Due to the coating of ceramics, it is also used as a flame-retardant charcoal in the commercial field of charcoal grilling.

Kinokoto offers interior products with deodorizing and other functions, as well as clothing that supports warming by combining natural materials (silk, organic cotton, etc.) by taking advantage of the characteristics of ceramic charcoal.

The first "silk and charcoal leg warmer" developed for the purpose of warming the calves and feet was released 13 years ago. Since then, it has garnered support from many customers, mainly at stores, and has grown into a series of hot activities that represents kinokoto. Currently, we have a lineup of wrists, tummy, neck, room socks, spats, and thin leg warmers for spring and summer, depending on the part and season.

Commitment to the product

Silk and charcoal leg warmers

In developing the leg warmers, we emphasized that the material is natural fibers, and that it is easy to wear without stress even if you wear it for a long time.

The double knitting (cotton on the surface and silk on the inside) with plenty of air layer makes it difficult for body heat to escape. The inner calf area is hand-applied one by one by craftsmen with finely powdered functional ceramic charcoal.

The recommended way to use it is to wear it after taking a bath when the body temperature is relatively high, and use it so that the functional ceramic charcoal part touches the calf.

We have received support from those who are concerned about the cold, those who are warm, and those who are pregnant.

Charcoal Forest in the Forest S.M.L

I want to decorate the entrance or bedroom with objects that blend in with the interior.

While searching for an antique-like "shabby shape", I came across a conical shape. The leaves of a straight conical form reminiscent of conifers are painted with functional ceramic charcoal.

Functional ceramic charcoal, which has the characteristic of "adsorbing unpleasant odors and aromatizing good scents as they are (patented)", drips essential oils and allows you to enjoy the scent.

There are three sizes: S, M, and L. If you display them side by side, you will have a pleasant charcoal forest in your room.
