New landscapes always
show us new colors.

Let’s go on an adventure at the sunrise.
We go through the woods, cross the bridge,
and finally reach the harbor.

“Welcome to the colorful world.”

The big hippopotamus is the lighthouse keeper
who lights up the sea.
Hop on the hippopotamus and start our journey.

Brand new white cotton clouds
and honey-colored migratory birds.
A garden overflowing with flowers.
Ask the cat which way to go.
Fall asleep under a starry night.

Open the map in your dream.
A new adventure will be waiting for you tomorrow.

Unique colors

From the beginning, there was a strong will to dye colors that were never made before, by the existing towel manufacturers. Our first inspiration came from Vincent Van Gogh’s [The starry night]. In order to express that deep night sky painted in oil, we came up with the idea to interweave, organic cotton and bamboo rayon. The difference of concentration between the two yarns when dyed, gives a three-dimensional effect to the fabric.

The secret of softness

Hippopotamus unique deep colors, guarantee safety for health and the environment. In our manufacture, the dyeing includes a 5 hours washing process, using mount Ishizuchi’s underground water. Washing the fabric with this soft water removes the dye and soften the texture of the towel. Finally, purification of the drainage is made by bacteria wastewater treatment in our facilities, the clean water is released back to nature.

First wash

In order not to reduce the high absorbency of the textile, there is no starching in our manufacturing process. Please be aware that some fluff might drop during the first wash, therefore, we recommend to wash the towels separately.

(especially for drum types)
