■Overview
The client purchased a pre-owned detached house.
They requested to replace the existing "10 tatami mats with borders" that had been used for many years with "20 Ryukyu tatami mats".
After comparing natural rush grass with synthetic materials (Washi paper, plastic), they unhesitatingly chose rush grass.

■Customer's Voice
I am very satisfied with the sudden change to a modern atmosphere.
I'm glad I chose rush grass. The scent is also excellent.
■Maintenance Method
For daily maintenance, wipe with a dry cloth or vacuum along the grain.
If humidity exceeds 50%, mold may grow, so ensure adequate ventilation and dehumidification.
Since it contains natural oils, it repels liquids. If something spills, immediately dab the stain with a tightly wrung cloth and allow it to dry thoroughly.
