MORIKOUGEI, specializing in wood made from paper-thin slices of wood, was founded in 1953 in Tokushima Prefecture, Japan, and has been crafting products for about 70 years to date.

We manufacture and sell trays with distinctive designs. These designs are unique in that the color of the wood grain appears differently depending on the angle and direction of light.

This effect is achieved through innovative methods of gluing and trimming the grain.

We craft products using apple trees, which are rare globally.
We handle everything in-house, from logging to sawing and processing.

Commitment to Products:

• The city of Hirosaki in Aomori Prefecture is the top apple producer in Japan. Despite bringing us bountiful harvests every year, once these apple trees complete their role, most are disposed of, mainly for firewood.
• This is because the material can't be easily repurposed as wood, and there are many challenges in processing.
• However, we take care of the entire process ourselves, from plantation to cutting, sawing, and drying.
• Although we can only use 50% of them, we put considerable effort into utilizing them as a local resource and to showcase the unique texture of apple trees.

"More Trees" is a forest conservation organization led by Japanese musician Ryuichi Sakamoto.

The organization has established "More Trees Forests" in 18 locations in Japan and abroad, conducting conservation activities in collaboration with local communities.

The products of "More Trees" are designed by product designers, architects, and artists active in Japan and abroad.

Wood from the "More Trees Forest" is effectively used as raw materials, and a portion of the sales proceeds is dedicated to forest conservation activities.
