// SIZE //
*The size of the futon is indicated as the size of the side fabric (the size of the fabric before adding cotton), so the finished size after adding cotton will be about 4 inches / 10cm shorter. As you use the product, the cotton will settle down and the bulk will spread out as it settles down.

*Please note that because it is made of natural materials, there may be slight variations depending on the temperature and humidity environment.

*Please note that returns and exchanges due to size discrepancies will not be accepted.

 

How to choose the size of a kotatsu futon

Ideally, a kotatsu futon should be about  43" to 51" (110 to 130 cm) larger in both length and width than the kotatsu tabletop.
This means that the futon will be at least 21" (55 cm) larger than all four sides of the table.

However, these days, kotatsu tables tend to be taller. The average height of a kotatsu is said to be about  15" (39 cm). If your kotatsu is taller than this, a larger futon may be more suitable.

 

It is recommended that you choose a cover for your kotatsu futon that is the same or about 2″ / 5 cm larger than the kotatsu futon.

   Raw Cotton Saucing Location

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.

The cotton that has been debris removed and carded into sheets at our factory.

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.
