Bringing Japanese Wood and Products to the World —
Unlocking New Opportunities Through Global Export!

In recent years, our efforts have expanded beyond timber to include the export of complete interior sets for commercial spaces, as well as traditional Japanese architectural elements such as roof tiles and tatami mats. We are constantly embracing new challenges to meet evolving global demands. Our dedicated export specialists handle a wide range of international trade formats, including timber and product exports, triangular (three-country) trade, and export agency services, ensuring flexible and reliable support tailored to each client’s needs.

We receive numerous inquiries from overseas every year.

Exporting timber/lumber is not without challenges, as each destination country has its own set of regulations and requirements. However, we remain committed to sharing Japan’s rich culture and craftsmanship with the world. Through the export of high-quality timber and traditional materials, we aim to continue promoting the essence of Japanese culture on a global stage.

Export of complete Japanese furniture set
to South Africa

We successfully exported a complete traditional Japanese house to South Africa. Through detailed consultations with the client, we carefully tailored the specifications and dimensions of the structural materials, selected premium interior components, tatami mats, and roof tiles to meet their exact preferences. From sourcing all necessary materials to handling export procedures and ensuring safe delivery to the client, we provide a comprehensive one-stop service that brings Japanese craftsmanship to the world.

Solid Slab Wood

We receive numerous inquiries for premium Japanese materials, especially solid slabs of cedar, cypress, and zelkova, intended for use in Japanese restaurants and hotels. To help create an authentic Japanese atmosphere, we also supply traditional interior components such as tokobashira (decorative alcove posts) and migaki maruta (polished round logs), which are essential elements in Japanese-style rooms.
