Since ancient times, the lava rock formed beneath Mt. Fuji has been carefully protected from changes in surface temperature and weathering. LAVATECH is made by weaving this high-quality underground lava rock. We have achieved a high far-infrared effect by using a special technology to finely crush the lava rock that lies underground at Mt. Fuji for weaving into fibers. This brand of materials enables the creation of new products that address a wide range of health issues in areas such as sleep, beauty and sports through their blood circulation-promoting effects.
