Planning new woven products using Mikawa-grown cotton

【Supercategory:3. Textile Category:3.7 Science of consumption Subcategory:3.7.3 Supply chain management

We are working to plan products woven using locally grown cotton and to clarify characteristics and performance parameters such as texture, breathability, and color fastness by testing and evaluating the performance of the developed products. We are accumulating consumer data for these products in an effort to identify which characteristics of products manufactured using locally grown cotton appeal to consumers, and we intend to tap those characteristics as we plan future products.
