Please avoid using the product on carpets or uneven, soft surfaces. Do not jump or run on it. While the product has a non-slip treatment on the underside, there's still a chance it could move. Be aware that it can be more slippery when aligned with the grain of tatami mats.

Try not to place the product in locations subject to constant extreme high temperatures or high humidity, or directly under sunlight, as it may deform. Do not use it on top of heated flooring or hot carpets; accumulated heat could warp the product or the flooring.

Ensure that the product isn't directly exposed to warm air from a heater or heat from a radiant stove for prolonged periods. It's recommended to lift and ventilate the product, as well as clean underneath it, about once a week. Leaving it unattended on the floor could allow dust, dirt, and excessive moisture to accumulate, potentially leading to mold or mite infestations, which could negatively impact your health.

Yes, our Japanese-made tatami mats with traditional Washi-paper facings or modern resin facings are designed to curb occurrences of common causes of allergies, including household dust, mold, and mites. Using natural plants, our tatami mats have superior humidity control properties. However, they may be susceptible to mold and mites due to their organic content.

No, unfortunately, you cannot wash tatami mats with water. They are also not suitable for use in washing machines or dryers.

At its most basic, clean your tatami mat by wiping it along the grain with a clean towel. If your tatami mat is made of synthetic material, it can also be damp-wiped. However, if your mat is made of natural rush, please avoid damp-wiping or using it around water as much as possible, as it tends to absorb moisture.

How can I prevent dents and scratches in daily care? If you spill something, quickly wipe it up using a tightly wrung out towel or cloth. (Note that scrubbing too hard may damage the surface.) When vacuuming, move along the grain of the tatami. If you place heavy, sharp, or caster-equipped items on the mat, always use a protective mat. Please refrain from dragging items across the tatami. If the mat becomes soiled, please refer to the cleaning instructions provided with the product.
