Full-size traditional tatami mats can be difficult and expensive to ship internationally. This smaller modular tatami is designed to be practical for overseas shipping while keeping the feel and structure of Japanese tatami.

Japanese igusa tatami mats

When four mats are placed together, the overall size is 200 × 100 cm (78.7 × 39.4 in).

Four tatami mats placed together

A Single-size Futon Mattress (Shikifuton) placed on four mats.

Futon Mattress placed on modular tatami mats

This arrangement uses 12 mats and measures approximately 300 × 200 cm (118.1 × 78.7 in).

The surface is made from 100% Japanese igusa rush grass, woven using traditional tatami-making techniques.

The underside does not have a non-slip coating. The mats have enough weight to help keep them in place, but a thin non-slip sheet can be placed underneath if needed.

  • Air Purification

    Rush grass naturally absorbs certain airborne substances, including formaldehyde, helping improve indoor air quality.

  • Humidity Regulation

    Rush grass absorbs excess moisture and perspiration, helping maintain a comfortable environment.


  • Natural Deodorizing Effect

    Rush grass helps reduce common household odors, including perspiration and ammonia-related odors.

Made with Rush grass sourced from Kyushu, Japan

Pure Japanese rush grass, grown with clean water and fresh air, has a distinct toughness and resilience compared to its imported counterparts.

Japanese-grown rush grass is known for its superior density, resilience, and durability compared to many imported alternatives.

The fibers are more tightly packed, making the material:

  • More elastic
  • More durable
  • More resistant to cracking
  • Longer lasting

Hiba Wood Treatment

This product is treated with natural Hiba wood extract sourced from Aomori Prefecture, Japan.

Using proprietary processing technology, Hiba essence is infused into the material. Hiba extract contains hinokitiol, a naturally occurring compound known for its antibacterial and deodorizing properties.

Compared with untreated products, the Hiba treatment helps maintain freshness while adding the pleasant, forest-like aroma characteristic of Hiba wood.

The natural scent of Hiba is often associated with the relaxing atmosphere of a forest retreat, enhancing the comfort of your living space.

Care Instructions

Wipe gently with a dry cloth or a tightly wrung cloth when needed.

If moisture remains, dry it well in a shaded, well-ventilated place.

Avoid long hours of direct sunlight, as it may cause fading or uneven color changes.

Please note: The color of the edges may appear different, this is not a defect. The color variation is not caused by fading or sun exposure, but is a natural characteristic of rush grass.
