The MUKU Series expresses the minimalist beauty and natural essence of “MUKU” — pure, untouched materials. The rug uses domestically grown Japanese igusa with thick, resilient fibers, delivering a refreshing and comfortable barefoot experience. The border design is a key visual highlight. Users can choose natural hemp for an organic, relaxed look, or Kaihara Denim — made in collaboration with the century-old Kaihara Denim — for a stylish, Japanese-modern (和モダン) finish that elevates interior spaces. Designed with health and safety in mind, the rug is produced entirely in Japan, from raw materials to final assembly. Using mud-free “MUKU” igusa ensures a clean, additive-free product ideal for family homes. Natural igusa provides excellent humidity regulation and air-purifying properties. The 6mm urethane foam backing adds cushioning and softness while allowing the rug to be folded for compact storage. This rug is a summer-cooling item and should be cleaned by wiping rather than washing. 【Product Features】 ▪ IKEHIKO MUKU Series — minimalist Japanese design with natural aesthetics ▪ Made with high-quality Japanese-grown igusa ▪ Crafted using mud-free “MUKU” igusa for pure, chemical-free comfort ▪ Entirely Made in Japan — from raw materials to manufacturing ▪ Border options: natural hemp or Japan’s renowned Kaihara Denim ▪ Naturally cool touch, ideal for hot summer climates ▪ Igusa fibers naturally purify air and regulate humidity ▪ 6mm urethane foam backing enhances softness and cushioning ▪ Foldable design for easy seasonal storage ▪ Not washable — recommended to clean by wiping 【Product Images】 https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949611249_731ca686da_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949554053_d641c373d5_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949611224_ee7b9219bf_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949554013_3d8d9d0051_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949554043_25f290c0a3_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949611184_9a4c4bf3dc_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949656550_e3c52e5b25_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949353876_839ac1f629_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949656530_e6bbcb7f00_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949611164_48140df9e8_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949353841_ed9df48d43_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949553868_e6fdeb6237_b.jpg https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54949611029_c13edbab09_b.jpg 【Additional Information】 ※ Natural igusa absorbs harmful airborne substances and purifies indoor air ※ Moisture absorption is 2.5× higher than cotton ※ Effectively eliminates odors such as sweat, urine, and pet smells ※ Naturally flame-resistant, making it a safe interior material ※ Durable, resilient fibers that resist dirt and are easy to maintain ※ Emits a calming, wood-like natural fragrance that enhances focus ※ Igusa products like tatami and rugs offer a smooth, skin-friendly texture ※ Naturally regulates temperature — cool in summer, warm in winter ※ Free of chemical additives, environmentally friendly, and suitable for children ※ Breathable and low-maintenance, helping reduce water and energy usage 【Precautions】 ※ Natural color differences between the root, midsection, and tip of igusa ※ Variations in length and thickness are natural characteristics ※ Minor broken strands are not defects; trim with scissors if needed ※ Igusa has a natural herbal scent; smell-sensitive users should test beforehand ※ Room environment may affect color and aroma 【Usage Instructions】 ※ Wipe with a dry cloth before first use; dyed igusa may shed color initially ※ Do not step on with shoes or place heavy furniture on the rug ※ Discontinue use if skin irritation occurs ※ Vacuum along the weaving direction; wipe with a damp cloth when needed ※ Avoid direct sunlight to prevent fading ※ Blot spills immediately and air-dry in the shade ※ Keep ventilated; open windows on sunny days ※ For mites or mold, brush outdoors and sun-dry for about one hour ※ Clean and dry the floor before placement ※ When used as bedding mats, ensure the mattress is firm enough to avoid damage ※ Clean before storing and keep in a dry, shaded place without heavy pressure 【Brand Introduction】 Founded in 1886 in Fukuoka by Hikotaro Ikegami, IKEHIKO has grown through the Meiji, Taisho, Showa, Heisei, and Reiwa eras to become one of Japan’s most iconic igusa brands. For over a century, the company has mastered igusa craftsmanship — from cultivation to manufacturing — combining traditional techniques with modern design. Its product range includes tatami, yoga mats, rugs, pillows, cushions, sleeping mats, deodorizing rolls, and more. Through thoughtful design and innovation, IKEHIKO brings natural igusa into contemporary life, offering comfort with cultural richness. IKEHIKO’s artisan philosophy means uncompromising attention to detail. Every piece balances functionality, beauty, and sustainability. From tatami to home décor, each fiber carries a century of craftsmanship, inviting users to reconnect with nature and enjoy pure, calming living. 【Corporate Vision】 With more than 100 years of history, IKEHIKO works closely with farmers and artisans to preserve and revitalize Japan’s igusa industry. The brand carefully selects eco-friendly materials — including OCS-certified organic cotton — and is committed to passing down traditional igusa culture. By combining refined craftsmanship with innovative design, IKEHIKO ensures that igusa remains relevant in modern homes and continues to uplift lives with its natural warmth. To address the challenges faced by the industry, IKEHIKO builds a sustainable ecosystem alongside local farmers and workshops, transforming short-stem igusa and leftover fibers into usable materials to achieve zero-waste circular production. As President Kosei Inokuchi states: “Guided by igusa toward the future, we aim to share culture with the world and promote well-being.” IKEHIKO is more than a manufacturer — it is a guardian of igusa culture, weaving a living bridge between tradition and the future. 【Social Media】 IKEHIKO Japan — Bringing nature closer to everyday life Facebook: search IKEHIKO日本池彦 Instagram: search IKEHIKO日本池彦 YouTube: search IKEHIKO日本池彦 LINE Official: search IKEHIKO日本池彦 https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54594921058_ed0d9ee374_b.jpg
