We directly import cotton from the Murata Group in Gujarat, India's largest cotton-producing region.
We use non-genetically modified, native varieties of cotton. In the clothing industry, long-fiber cotton, which is more comfortable to wear as clothing, is preferred and is being bred, but the cotton needed for futons is a native species. The characteristic of this cotton is its fiber thickness, which provides strong support, making it an ideal variety for use in mattresses. It is certified by GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard), one of the world’s most reliable organic certifications.
GOTS certification is not only about ensuring that the raw fibers are organic; it also guarantees that all processes—from harvesting, processing, manufacturing, to distribution—are conducted in environmentally and socially responsible ways, with measures in place to prevent contamination or mixing with non-organic products.
Below are the initiatives of Murata Group’s contract farmers, who comply with GOTS regulations and receive advice from CB:
• Soil Management: Using only organic fertilizers and crop rotation and avoiding synthetic inputs.
• Pest and Weed Management: Implementing IPM practices; using mechanical and biological methods.
• Seeds and Planting Material: Using only organic, non-GMO seeds.
• Water Management: Conserving water, ensuring clean irrigation sources and storage and reuse of water in Monsoons
• Post-Harvest Handling: Preventing contamination with non-organic products and practices
• Environmental Sustainability: Reducing environmental impact and promoting sustainable land use.
• Social Responsibility: Following fair labor practices and ensuring worker well-being.
• Regular Inspections: Complying with regular inspections by the certifying body.

To select the correct futon size
Please note that what we show on our site is the size of the futon fabric. If it is filled with cotton, it will be about 4 inches (10 cm) shorter in length and width.
Example : Futon Mattress - Single 78” x 39” (200 x 100 cm) will be 74" x 35" (190 x 90 cm) when you receive.

If you are planning to place the futon mattress on your bed, and want to fit them perfectly, please be aware of it and select carefully.
All sizes are approximate.
Thickness

Shiki Futon (Futon Mattress) at the time of delivery is very fluffy and voluminous, measuring over 4” (10 cm) in the thickest center position but after about one week of usage the fluffiness will begin to settle, and the mattress will transform into a stiffer, denser futon. After about two to three months of use, the cotton padding becomes even thinner (more constricted) and the futon will become about half of its original thickness. Although the volume decreases, the cotton fiber's "support features" become activated and the futon becomes a mattress that will support your proper sleeping posture.

How We Make Futon





We source quality raw cotton from India. Classic, heavy-duty machines, which have been used for over three generations, get rid of cotton chips and make the cotton suitable as futon filling. We sterilize cotton by heat. We don't use any chemical material in any of our processes.

Many kinds of cotton fabrics are in stock to meet customers’ various demands. Our skilled artisans finish more than 15 futon mattresses per day when it‘s busy. The products are then shipped to the world from our office on the lower floor of the factory. Our making process is minimal and productive at the same time. We can cut the costs of the middleman and transportation. That’s why we can offer quality products at a fair price.

Seller was great at communicating with me about my order, and it arrived in great time! Can’t wait to start using my new bedding system since I wanted something that was more mobile as I might be moving a lot the next couple years.
Great quality product. Superb customer service. Arrived before EDT. Very happy with the purchase. I highly recommend the shop! 🙂
This Futon Starter Set has changed my life. Up until now I was sleeping on the floor or a yoga mat as an alternative to a bed. It was very good for my physical health but poor for my mental health. Not having more than a sleeping spot left me feeling a bit vagrant. Recieving my Tatami and futon changed all that. I am so grateful every time I lay down each night. My bedroom actually looks like a bedroom, and I sleep beautifully. The construction is top-notch. Everything feels sturdy and well built. I can see my cotton mattress flattening into its most supportive shape. The two covers I received are beautiful and soft out of the bag. I am so happy with the plum/wine color I got in addition to the unbleached cotton. As a bonus my futon and tatami arrived 2 weeks faster than expected. I am so grateful I went with this set.
