● Antibacterial towel of natural origin Japan color
Tannins, a type of polyphenol contained in persimmon shibu, have excellent bactericidal power, and in order to achieve even higher antibacterial properties, antibacterial agents using nanotechnology are added. As a result of the antibacterial test, the antimicrobial activity value was 5.9 to 6.1, and after 30 washes, it was an astonishing 4.5 to 6.1. In the deodorant test, the reduction rate of ammonia, acetic acid, and isovaleric acid (the three major sweat odors) was 97 to 99%, and we were able to produce a towel with an astonishing antibacterial and deodorizing effect. Even if you dry it in the room, it does not smell bad and can be used comfortably. Japan's color dyeing is a two-step process. First, we used a reactive dye to dye it into six colors, which are the base of Japan's colors, and persimmon astringent brown colors were added to all the colors, making it possible to express calm colors.
In addition, the finishing process by enzymes eliminates the hardness caused by persimmon astringent dyeing, resulting in a finish with good water absorption and texture. It is an Imabari brand certified product.

- Natural plant dyeing that pursues colors unique to Japan with natural coloring
Many towel dyes use petroleum-based colorings, but Kawakami Kogeisho dyes them with carefully selected plant extracts such as petals, leaves, trees, and fruits. Normally, it is very difficult to stably produce the desired color with plant dyeing, but with the knowledge and experience we have cultivated so far, we can dye deep natural colors. Dyed towels and washcloths are a tasteful natural color.
●Processing using high-quality natural water and proprietary enzymes
There are various factors that create the feel of towels, especially their softness and softness, such as the raw material cotton, the processing until it becomes yarn, and the weaving technique, but the most decisive factor in making the most of these characteristics is the process called "washing" that is performed after the towel is weaving. Ordinary towels use several chemicals to remove grease and dirt from cotton in order to increase absorption and breathability, but Kawakami Kogeisho's washing process does not use any chemicals such as petroleum-based scouring agents.
