Carrying Everyone's Dreams: The Dream of 'kuwae' Has Blossomed

Our company supports the 'April Dream' initiative, which aims to make April 1st a day to share dreams. This press release represents the dream of 'kuwae' / Uchiyama Corporation. Uchiyama Corporation started with cork manufacturing and has supported people's rich lives through businesses centered on 'insulation.' In 2024, we launched our own brand, 'kuwae,' managed by our Life Creation Division. Our mission is to provide the world with 'unconscious comfort'—spaces where people feel 'just right'—through our insulation materials. The name 'kuwae' embodies our desire to create a rich future for our customers' lives within this 'unconscious comfort' and to 'add' (kuwae) joy to their daily existence. In November 2025, we opened the 'kuwae Showroom' at our headquarters in Shiba, Minato-ku. Supporting the April Dream initiative, we created a space within this showroom to share dreams. Our dream is to 'create a rich future for our customers' lives and add joy to them.' We are actively proposing spaces where spending time in a 'kuwae' environment enriches feelings, generates joy, and fills the heart with excitement and color. We hope to see many such places. On the April 1st Dream Train (Yamanote Line), our message, 'I want to create a rich future for life and expand exciting connections,' will be displayed on the in-car signage. Currently, 'kuwae' offers three products: the aluminum frame glass sliding door 'LuttA,' the lightweight interior colored glass/mirror 'Plume-aile,' and the art panel 'Suki ni Kazaru Panel.' These are our own products born from the solid technical capabilities cultivated through many achievements. 'LuttA' features a thin frame with the profound weight of glass. It has a presence without being overbearing, adding an accent to your lifestyle. Its noise-free design not only divides space but also makes the connection between people feel comfortable. Its clean, frame-like appearance creates a high-quality space as if there were a single piece of art. You can choose glass colors to match your living scene: 'Clear,' 'Gray,' and 'Frosted.' The beginning of 'LuttA' was the desire for a 'thin and beautiful sliding door.' Previous aluminum frame sliding doors had limitations in design due to the vertical frames becoming thinner. We discarded the fixed concept of aluminum frame sliding doors as mere sash assembly and reconstructed the role of the top and bottom frames. By making all four sides 10mm wide and using a stepped shape for the top and bottom frames, we achieved a clean, unified look.
