The "colors of nature" encountered during the period of high economic growth

The Masuku Dyeing and Textile Research Institute began about 50 years ago in Nishiwaki City, Hyogo Prefecture, when Masuhisa Hirota, who had lived by textiles, started a class for natural dyeing and handlooming.

During the period of high economic growth, Masuhisa, who was a yarn merchant, expanded his business and mass-produced, but he closed the business due to the debt of a friend. At that time, what crossed my mind was the "color of nature" that I saw in a corner of the factory of a business partner.

"Spinning, dyeing, and weaving yarn is the best way to live," he said, and set up a class to learn and teach hand-spinning, dyeing and hand-weaving with natural dyes.

Ten years after starting the class, at the request of China, I went to a village where hand-spun yarn was still being spun, and built a factory in the area where cotton cultivation, spinning, dyeing, weaving, and sewing were carried out, and now we are manufacturing using a Japanese-made spinning machine "Gala-bo" that can make yarn that is closest to the texture of hand-spun yarn in Shandong Province.

What are we doing?

Natural cultivation on the ground that has never used pesticides or fertilizers

Ordinary organic cotton is cotton that is harvested using farmland (called organic cultivation) that has been cultivated without pesticides and chemical fertilizers for more than three years.

Shandong Province has long been a producer of wheat, garlic and cotton. Taking advantage of the fact that insects do not come to us when garlic is cultivated, we make cotton by growing garlic. The only tools used are tools that are handled by human hands, such as hoes and sickles. It is a land that has never used pesticides or fertilizers before, and we are farming according to the 24th season.

Seeds sown in spring will bloom at the end of summer, and in the fall they will become cotton balls. The gala spun yarn that is harvested and spun slowly over time is finished in a soft and fluffy yarn with air in the center of the fiber. The goodness of cotton harvested without the use of fertilizers and pesticides is reflected in the comfort when applied to the skin. The products of the Masuku Dyeing and Textile Research Institute, which are made by hand, are 80% finished products, so to speak. The remaining 20% gradually develops a taste as you use it, gets used to your skin and hands, and becomes a finished product over time.

In addition to "organic" and "no use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers," the word "organic" means "original" and "in line with nature." It's not something special, like "old-fashioned", it's just that we've been doing it for a long time.

Sustainable and long-lasting manufacturing that is comfortable for both producers and nature. We will continue to make yarn and cloth by emulating what people have done as a matter of course just over a hundred years ago.

Photo: "Gala spinning machine" called "Gala spinning" because of the rattling sound of a spinning wheel. Fluctuations and expressions in the thickness of the yarn that cannot be created by machine spinning are created.

Commitment to the product

Cloth products that make use of the oil content of cotton and the fluff of fibers

The cloth that is gently spun and woven with a gala spinning machine retains the original oil content of the cedar contained in the plant fibers and the fluff of the fibers.

It is resistant to washing, and cotton increases the strength of the fibers when wet.

It does not generate static electricity like chemical fibers, so it does not cling to clothes or have tingling discomfort.

You can use it for a long time by using soap that does not use soap or does not contain synthetic detergents.

"Gala Spinning Health Towel Mini"

A long-selling product of Masuku Dyeing and Textile Research Institute.

It is an easy-to-use washcloth size, and its uses are endless, such as for washing, bathing, hanging on a pillow or wrapping around the neck.

When washing the body, it is important to wet it well and rub it gently without soap.

Testimonials from Buyers

Can I remove makeup with this??? I was skeptical, but he took it up beautifully. I was a little worried, so I tried using it by gently stroking it. It is strange that there is a moisturizing sensation on the skin after washing. I am happy with the feeling that my skin is plump.

・I learned about this product from a magazine. I was curious because I wanted to try to live an eco-friendly life, so I inquired by e-mail in advance about how to use it, and I was politely taught. I've been using it for more than a month since I bought it, and I like it very much because it cleans without detergent, my hands don't get rough, it's environmentally friendly, and it's all good! If you are worried about dirt, you can boil and disinfect it.

・It is very comfortable to wear the moment you wear it. I felt as if I was being enveloped. I suddenly became cold and couldn't continue to wear layers, but this one gradually warms up when I wear it, even if my feet are cold.
