    Efforts in Environmental Sustainability

    Sustainable, recycling-oriented farm

    SENSAI takes consideration in the environment in which one of the core raw materials is made. 
    Perilla leaf extract found in Koishimaru Silk Royal™*, which is formulated in the ABSOLUTE SILK  and EXPERT Items, is derived from aromatic herbs grown in sustainable, recycling-oriented farms that do not use agricultural chemicals or chemical fertilizers.
    In the sustainable, recycling-oriented farm, the processes of soil preparation, cultivation, harvesting, and ingredient extraction are done consistently to clarify traceability. We also work to reduce the environmental burden by composting the residue generated during the production process and returning it to the soil.
