The fromG-Hand oshibori machine and a hand taking a hot towel

fromG-Hand
Sustainable “Omotenashi”

The “oshibori” (hand towel) is one form of Japanese hospitality.

It is said to date back to the era of the Kojiki,
some 1,300 years ago.

Through changing times, the oshibori has changed its form
but is still part of Japanese hospitality today.

We offer the oshibori in a sustainable way that suits today’s world.

A hand holding roll paper

To protect the environment, after disposal it returns to the soil naturally, as cellulose fiber is biodegradable.

Sterilization

SHEER CITRA

Grapefruits

SHEER CITRA is an alcohol-free disinfectant that uses 100% grapefruit seed extract (GSE), a natural ingredient. It is effective against more than 800 types of bacteria and viruses, more than 100 types of fungi, and spore-forming bacteria, and is also used as a medicine and supplement outside Japan.

Used as a disinfectant spray, it removes bacteria and viruses in just a few seconds, and its antibacterial coating lasts for more than a month. Because GSE is an oil, each use adds another layer (oil coating), further increasing its antibacterial power.

It is approved as an “existing food additive” by Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, so SHEER CITRA combines disinfecting power with safety and can be used widely in medical, beauty and welfare facilities.

SafeSHEER CITRA is an oily extract pressed from grapefruit seeds. It contains only the extract and water: additive-free and 100% natural.
Disinfecting powerIt disinfects a wider range than alcohol, hypochlorous acid water, ozone or photocatalysts: more than 800 types of bacteria and viruses, more than 100 types of fungi, and spore-forming bacteria.
Antibacterial powerUnlike alcohol, hypochlorous acid water or ozone, which only disinfect at the moment of use, its antibacterial effect lasts a long time.
FastIt disinfects quickly, in a matter of seconds.
