Sekisui MIGUSA tatami mats are made of a specially-developed resin that reproduces the same texture and skin sensation as the rushes used in Japan’s traditional tatami mats with the use of our high-grade resin formulation technology.
Highly functional tatami mats that are durable and safe enable Japan’s traditional culture to be easily enjoyed in the same way as carpets and rugs.
A wide-ranging lineup consisting of fifty colors that can easily be coordinated with preferred interiors tastes.
The factor that Sekisui insists upon when manufacturing tatami is to provide suggestions for new spaces that carry on our heritage spreading the word on the potential and wonder of Japan’s traditional tatami floor mats.
We therefore stick to traditional manufacturing methods in which each strand is woven one-by-one as well as traditional weave patterns like “hikime” -approximately 1.5cm between weaves- and “meseki” -without borders-, in order to develop tatami mats that match up with the modern age under a concept of flexibility that transcends the original concepts of tatami mats.
We have conceived many different weave patterns that can be used according to purposes and required designs.
Providing traditional weave patterns in order to ensure that the tatami culture is handed down to future generations is Sekisui’s main quest.
