Under the vision of "A home with 和 Wa WABURO," USTECH provides customers, modern people living in the midst of the hustle and bustle of modern life, a time and space to relax and enjoy the traditional Japanese culture of "bathing" with the Japanese modern luxury "stone bathtub" and invite them to a healthy life both mentally and physically with the effect of natural materials. 1.


1. "湯浴み YUAMI": Offering the highest level of Japanese modern "YUAMI" Bathing luxury

和 Wa WABURO reinterprets traditional Japanese bathing culture in the modern age through the use of stone bathtubs made of unique natural materials, providing high-quality bathtubs and bathrooms that match the much-requested "hotel-like bathtub at home," offering customers the ultimate in relaxation and healing.


2. "Physical and Mental Health": We aim for "WELLNESS" of physical and mental health.

Our mainstay Rock Wood type stone-encrusted bathtubs (standard bathtubs in Preporu unit baths) are combined with Towadaishi, a rare stone that emits far-infrared rays and negative ions, and natural cypress that releases aromatic phytoncide, which has a forest bathing-like effect, to promote "wellness" that promotes physical and mental health. The bathtub is designed to promote wellness, creating a healing space. 3.


3. "Safe Design and Construction": Pursuit of risk reduction through unique safe design and the latest construction technology

The "和 Wa WABURO" is based on a safe design that uses a stainless steel or FRP waterproof tank inside to prevent water leakage, which is the biggest risk of bathtubs. High quality by high precision design and manufacturing" and "significant weight reduction" are realized. 4.


4. "Hot spring compatible*": Nationwide coverage from homes to villas in hot spring areas

We have many customers in hot spring resort areas throughout Japan, and "和 Wa WABURO" bathtubs and bathhouses are almost always compatible with hot spring water quality conditions.  We have experience with many hot spring properties, including hotels and inns, and our staff has unique construction methods and expertise in dealing with hot spring properties. We promote "bathing" in hot spring areas, as only "和 Wa WABURO" can.

*Conditions apply, such as the quality of the hot spring water.
