In selling and manufacturing furniture, a product that affects the global environment in the form of wood
The Okawa Furniture Manufacturers Association has been working on the development of a sustainable material.
This project was created together with forestry workers in Kumamoto Prefecture.

The eco-friendly bookshelf is made of this sendan wood.

・Contributing to CO2 reduction with hardwoods that grow quickly


Specifically, how is sendan wood friendly to the earth?
Despite being a hardwood, sendan wood grows quickly and can generally be harvested in about 20 to 30 years.

Normal hardwoods, for example oak, take about 50 years to harvest.
Coniferous trees such as cedar and cypress also take about 50 years.

Cendan wood grows faster = more carbon dioxide adsorption.
It has an annual carbon dioxide adsorption capacity about six times greater than that of cedar or cypress.

・The sendan wood is used as it is in its solid state.


The amount of carbon dioxide adsorbed is small when the amount of sendan wood used is small, but the amount of carbon dioxide adsorbed is also small when the amount of sendan wood used is small.
This bookcase is made entirely of solid sendan wood, except for the back panel.
The luxurious use of sendan wood increases the amount of carbon dioxide being stocked.

・Strongly assembled in a woodworking shop in Okawa


The bookshelves are made of the same sendan wood, and are assembled at a furniture factory in Okawa, Fukuoka Prefecture, in a strong manner.
I think furniture that is assembled by the customer will inevitably be screwed together, etc., but
Screws are only joined at the part where the screw is effective, and I am inevitably concerned about the strength of the screw.
Furniture assembled in a furniture factory uses dowels, which are joints and glue, to hold the furniture in place.
The product is assembled firmly with a press machine, etc.

Therefore, we would like our furniture to be used for a long time because it is environmentally friendly and made of good, solid materials.
