Mari Nishimura
As we rely greatly on the abundant nature here in Shiga for manufacturing, I have become equally committed to preserving this natural environment for the future of our children. We hope to build an appreciation for genuine quality products that are cherished over time. Disposable goods are incapable of such long-lasting durability. We aim to promote this type of lifestyle change by constantly reexamining what we can do to contribute to a better society, and applying this mindset throughout our work. All of our products are related to people's sleep. We believe in helping people achieve mind and body wellness through a better sleep environment that allows a good night's rest, followed by a productive day, to be spent making their dreams come true.
1. All In-House Production with Made-in-Japan Quality
At our headquarters in Shiga Prefecture's Koto region, WESTY makes our bed coverings through entirely in-house production. Since beginning with duvet covers, our products now extend to a variety of sleep-related products. With accumulated expertise and corporate culture that have cultivated over time, we ensure safe and secure quality of each product made for our customers.
2. Implementation of Rigorous Internal Quality Control
To provide our customers with the highest quality products, we adhere to our own internal system of strict quality control that covers every stage of production from planning and manufacturing to inspection and delivery.
3. Use of Carefully Selected Natural Materials
We rely on a select variety of primarily domestic and local sources for materials, and during the planning phase, we determine the material that will work best for a given product. Our selection criteria favor sustainability and environmentally-friendly materials. Bedding covers made with natural fibers have a smooth yet dry texture, which soothes both the mind and body to help achieve peaceful and restful sleep.
4. Unique Original Products
For half a century, we have engaged in planning and production of unique and distinctive products according to the market's changing demands. Our current product lines include the following:
Duvet Covers with Easy 3-Sided Zipper
These covers help to foster independent behavior in children through design features which allow the covers to be put on or taken off by a single child or person with relative ease.

Double Wazarashi Gauze
Wazarashi is the Japanese traditional method of bleaching fabric. The fabric is made in Japan, as are the fabric subprocesses such as dyeing and sewing. The traditional chemical-free bleaching method gives a gentle touch to the skin.
