About

Once a cornerstone of Japan’s prosperity, sericulture—born over 5,000 years ago—is now quietly fading into history. Through joint research with Shinshu University, one of the world's top silkworm researchers, we have discovered the amazing nutritional power of silkworms. The powder has an aroma and color similar to matcha (powdered green tea), and has a variety of functions that help maintain good health. This one-of-a-kind material that combines tradition and functionality can be used as is or in product applications, bringing new options to society in the future.
