A dream of craftsmanship
meets design
“We want to create something only we can make. We don’t want to just be a subcontractor; we want to bring our own ideas to life.”
That was the passionate spark from the company’s younger team members, and it inspired an innovative new project. Although its resin molding skills, developed over many years, are second to none, embarking on a new path by developing its own product was a major decision for the company, especially product planning and design. Collaboration with the up-and-coming product design unit TENT opened the door to new possibilities.
A new experience to enliven your table
Kawabe Shokai’s enthusiasm combined with TENT sparked a chain reaction of ideas, which steadily took shape. Without fear of failure, they produced prototype after prototype, testing tirelessly for a better result. All that effort led to the creation of CHOPLATE.
They focused on a simple concept: “Cut fresh ingredients and bring them straight to the table.” By pursuing both functionality and a refined design, the company achieved a perfect blend of Osaka’s traditional craftsmanship and bold innovation. Created with the hope that customers discover its real value the more you use it, CHOPLATE carries the spirit of craftsmanship handed down for generations in Osaka, along with the company’s desire to forge a new era. May this fusion of tradition and innovation add freshness and value to your daily life.
