Frequently asked questions
How do I care for it?
Rinse it now and then and stand it on edge to air. Occasionally a light rub with a food-safe oil keeps the grain looking rich. No harsh cleaners are needed.
Is it comfortable on wet feet?
Very — the wood is smooth and warm to the touch, and because water drains through the gaps, the surface stays dry underfoot rather than slick.
Will it crack or warp?
Hinoki is a stable, naturally water-resistant wood, and the slatted design lets it dry evenly. Keep it well-ventilated and out of constant standing water and it will serve for a long time.
Why slatted?
The gaps between the slats let water drain straight through, so the mat dries quickly and never sits in a pool. That keeps the wood smooth, comfortable and long-lasting.
Does the scent last?
Yes. The wood itself carries the fragrance, so it stays with the mat for years. Rinsing it occasionally and letting it dry brings the scent back to its freshest.
What is hinoki?
Hinoki is a Japanese cypress, prized for centuries for its straight grain, its strength and its clean, woody, resinous scent. It is the wood used for temples, baths and fine homes.
