About This Product
■Using Japanese wisdom
JAPAN plaster is made from Japan's finest limestone. Limestone mined at a limestone mine in Sano City, Tochigi Prefecture, where plaster has been manufactured since 1854, is slowly fired over a long period of time using the traditional salt firing method. This lime produces a whiter, purer, stronger plaster. Made with 100% natural domestic materials, we have created something that pursues authenticity.
Based on the high functionality of plaster, we pursue a matte finish that suits modern architecture and a smooth, soft coating that creates expression on the wall. It is a ``real plaster'' that does not contain any additives other than the raw materials of plaster: lime, glue, and soot.
■100% Japanese plaster
100% natural domestic plaster. Everything from mining to manufacturing is done in Japan.
■What is plaster?
Japanese plaster is thought to have been established in the Asuka period. It is widely used in shrines, temples, castles, etc., and was used in Western architecture such as Rokumeikan during the Meiji period, and in major Japanese buildings such as the Prime Minister's official residence, the Kyoto State Guest House, and Tokyo Station after the war.It is representative of Japan. It is a building material.
·lime
Lime, the main raw material for plaster, is fossilized fossilized material that was deposited in the ancient seas by coral insects and other marine organisms. It is said to be Japan's only self-sufficient mineral resource.
·paste
By mixing glue made by cooking natural seaweed such as tsunomata, funori, and ginkgo algae, the application will be smooth.
・Susa
To prevent the plaster from shrinking and cracking when it dries, fine fibers are added. Many of them are made from things that were once used as strings, processed and reused.
■How to make
1. Mining
It is mined from a limestone mine in the Kuzu area of Sano City, Tochigi Prefecture, one of Japan's leading lime producing regions. The limestone in this area is said to have originated from marine life 250 million years ago.
2. Firing
Limestone is fired in a furnace (kiln) using a traditional manufacturing method perfected over a long history called shio-yaki. Lime made using this method produces plaster that is whiter and more resistant to cracking.
3. Digestion
When fired, limestone turns white and becomes quicklime. When water is poured on it, it generates heat and turns into slaked lime, the main raw material for plaster.
4.Mixing
Glue, soot, and water are added to the slaked lime obtained in this way and mixed well.
