Mixing washi paper pulp into water

Determined to preserve the washi paper craft, despite the rise of Western paper following World War II, 6th generation Minoru Fujimori first began what is now Awagami Factory. For over 70 years, the family has continued their longstanding washi traditions in an effort to preserve it and pass it on to the next generation.

Continuing the spirit of washi paper’s sustainability, Awagami maintains a caring and nurturing focus on the environment using theserenewable plants and recycling all water used during production.
