Tachibana Bamboo
In Yame which is the largest production region of bamboo in Japan, various products are being created using bamboo which are generated because of thinning for forest protection.
The bamboo charcoal has double numbers of tiny stomata than wood charcoal, and that is said to be effective in eliminating odor and excluding moisture. Besides, since the bamboo charcoal contains natural minerals and negative ions, it also has a great relaxing effect.
Tachibana Bamboo Corporation develops and sells products like soaps and shampoo taking advantage of the bamboo charcoal’s strong points. The products are very popular since they adsorb to and remove contamination making the skin smooth and the scalp clean and refreshing.
