Approaching our 80th anniversary. Taking our inherited technology into the home building of the future.
Tanimoto Fusuma Koshoku Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Yao City, Osaka; Representative: Toru Tanimoto), which plans, manufactures, and installs interior fittings such as fusuma, shoji, sliding doors, and closet doors, will celebrate its 80th anniversary in September 2026.
Currently, the company is preparing various projects for this milestone and is once again broadcasting the technologies and initiatives it has cultivated over the years.
The company is a fittings manufacturer that has proposed rethinking how spaces are used through its products. They have resolved the 'minor inconveniences and feelings of staleness' felt in homes through the ingenuity of their fittings, such as converting traditional Japanese closets (oshiire) into modern closets or completely renewing the impression of a Japanese-style room.
In this press release, as part of our information dissemination leading up to our 80th anniversary, we introduce our award history and technological capabilities, while sharing specific concepts and background on how living spaces can be transformed through interior fittings.
A fittings manufacturer approaching its 80th anniversary
A view of the workshop at the time of our founding. This is where Tanimoto Fusuma Koshoku's craftsmanship began.
Tanimoto Fusuma Koshoku Co., Ltd. was founded in 1946 as Tanimoto Hyogu-ten (Mounting Shop). Centered on the manufacture of fittings like fusuma, shoji, and sliding doors, it is a company that has continuously created products that partition living spaces.
As the use of homes changes significantly due to the decrease in Japanese-style rooms and changes in lifestyles, the company has been rethinking the role of fittings and working on developing products suited for modern living.
As we approach the milestone of our 80th anniversary in September 2026, we plan to review our history and technology and disseminate this information sequentially.
Technological prowess backed by an award-winning history
The company has been recognized by external organizations for its efforts as a manufacturing enterprise, receiving awards such as the 'Osaka Excellent Manufacturing Company Award (2019)' and being named one of the '300 Dynamic SMEs and Micro-enterprises (2021)'.
These awards are a recognition of our accumulation of technological capabilities over many years and our dedication to product development that meets the needs of the times. The fact that we have managed to balance usability and design in familiar products like interior fittings is our company's strength.
Original product development and brand expansion
The 'Hana Hikite' featuring traditional patterns adds an elegant accent to our fittings.
To differentiate ourselves from competitors, our company introduced printing machines over a decade ago and has been working to enhance the design quality of our fittings. This has enabled diverse expressions not bound by the traditional image of fusuma, realizing design proposals tailored to various living spaces.
In addition, under the 'Washitsu Reform Honpo' brand, we plan and sell original products such as fusuma stickers and 'Hana Hikite'. Furthermore, we have obtained trademarks such as 'Fusuma Reform Door' (registered: 2019) and 'Washitsu Reform Honpo' (registered: 2025), aiming to enhance our value from both product and brand perspectives.
These initiatives lead to proposals that look at how to use the entire living space, rather than just simply manufacturing fittings.

Living spaces easily transformed through the ingenuity of fittings
Adopted even in public housing properties in Fukuoka Prefecture.
Our company's products are chosen as one of the means to improve the inconveniences felt in homes.
For example, the 'Oshiire Reform Closet' which allows the fusuma of a Japanese closet to be changed into folding doors, and the 'Fusuma Reform Door' which allows fusuma to be replaced with western-style sliding doors; these make it possible to change the use of space while utilizing the existing frames.
Also, the aluminum sliding door 'Alumaji' gently partitions the space while transforming the existing Japanese room into a stylish appearance.
One of the characteristics of our products is that you can rethink how to use your home through the ingenuity of fittings, without the need for major construction.
