Based on initiatives with domestic and overseas original-yarn manufacturers, major material manufacturers, and processing companies (including our affiliates GSI Marulontex Co., Ltd. and Tajima Gosen Co., Ltd.), we handle a wide range of yarns of whether they be of natural or synthetic fibers. With major domestic and overseas apparel companies our key business associates, our yarns are used as materials for innerwear, legwear (stockings, tights, and socks), sweaters, and bedding. 
In recent years, supporting sustainable manufacturing from the raw material side, we are increasing our handling of recycled materials (materials made by reusing cutting scraps) and biodegradable materials. 
In this way, we have been focusing our efforts on the development of our own unique new materials and functional yarns.

These are new natural fibers with antibacterial performance that make use of oil extracted from tea fruits. A high level of antibacterial properties is maintained even after repeated washing. This product makes effective use of tea fruits that were previously being discarded, so it has been garnering attention as a sustainable material.
