Marks International Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: 3-7-20 Kojimachi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 102-0083; Representative Director: Itaru Natori), a wholesale and retail company of interior, kitchen, and lifestyle goods operating under the vision of "enriching everyday life," is pleased to announce the launch of new products from the German glass storage container brand 'WECK', which the company imports and sells. Additionally, 'TSUKEMONO STONE', a convenient tool for making quick pickles from the original Japanese-planned brand 'WITH WECK'—which proposes and disseminates new uses and scenes for 'WECK'—has begun sales on Marks International's direct e-commerce sites (marcs STORE main site | https://marcs.shop/ , Rakuten Ichiba Store | https://www.rakuten.co.jp/marcsstore/) and at interior and lifestyle shops nationwide.

With a pale green hue and an antique-like texture, the 120-year-old German-born WECK has been favored by many and is celebrating its 25th anniversary of sales in Japan this year.
To mark this commemorative 25th anniversary year, seven new items, including the new 'FLARED' series, have been newly released.

■ What is 'WECK'

The 'WECK Canister' is a German-born glass storage container trademarked with a strawberry logo.

Originally starting as a food storage container, WECK has a history of over 100 years. What has kept it beloved since its inception is its high airtightness and the ease of sealed storage. It has spread worldwide from its home country of Germany, and today it is loved and used for various purposes.

The natural color of recycled glass and its timeless design enhance the appeal of whatever is placed inside, making it the star. Moreover, the rich variety of shapes and sizes—such as simple, cute, smart, and interesting shapes—offers the joy of choosing according to what you want to put in, where you want to place it, and its intended use.

Marks International began domestic sales in Japan in 2001. Furthermore, they develop and sell the original brand 'WITH WECK', which features items that further color life with WECK when used together, proposing and disseminating new uses and scenes for WECK.

For WECK, you can choose from several types of lids depending on your needs. These include the included "glass lid" that simply rests on the canister body (which can be firmly secured using a separately sold rubber gasket and stainless steel clips, enabling airtight boiling preservation) and the "silicone cap," an exclusive lid for WECK canisters designed in Japan that is highly airtight yet easy to open and close, preventing leaks even when laid on its side.
