WASARA

Your health and safety is of highest concern at Shojin.

We use fully biodegradable and compostable Japanese「WASARA」plates and cups to avoid the possibility of infection for both our guests and staff. Using WASARA, compostable, and made from 100% tree-free materials, reduces the usage of water and dish detergent.

HOSPITALITY

Earth-Conscious | Sustainability

Life is not just about people. It is about living in harmony with nature. The true meaning of environmental awareness is understanding how to interact with nature and how to live truly sustainable lifestyles.

Return to the Earth –Compostable

WASARA tableware is fully compostable. People, animals, trees and grasses – in the end we all return to the earth, and from there new life is born again. WASARA, too, was created to be used in moments when people gather, and later cycled back in to nature.

The Japanese Spirit

Japanese Aesthetics and Values

In a time when globally we are reconsidering our energy use and impact on the environment, WASARA has been designed to use all tree-free materials, specifically, bamboo and bagasse.

Based on bamboo and bagasse, environmentally-friendly WASARA products reduce the burden on the natural environment, and can be produced without fear of exhausting our natural resources.

Meaning of WASARA

The word WASARA is a compound word represented by two Japanese sounds. The original and most direct meaning is WA, indicating “Japanese” and SARA meaning “dish”. However, multiple characters can be substituted for each part: WA also representing peace, ancient Japan, or cycle; and SARA also meaning brand-new or renewal. This shows the deeper meaning behind this innovative style of pure, refined tableware, with a strong awareness of the circle of life.
