Kino Tokyo Tree Products uses an informational video on its official YouTube channel to explain its corporate mission and background. Following World War II, numerous trees in Tokyo's mountains were cut down for urban rebuilding. While reforestation was attempted, these young trees require roughly 70 years to reach full maturity, causing Japan to rely on imported lumber. Currently, Tokyo's mountains face an overabundance of mature timber, which endangers the local ecosystem because of its high density. Kino Tokyo Tree Products focuses on making traditional Japanese wood items, presents, and crafts, with the goal of promoting sustainable logging methods in Tokyo's mountains.
