Made in Japan① We use our very own drying method developed in Japan   

Sea cucumbers caught in Hokkaido (Ezo) and processed using a reliable drying technology. Producing high quality dried sea cucumber with our very own UIW drying technique.

UIW is an abbreviation for Ultrasonic Infrared Wave Drying Method. We developed this processing technology through our own original research over a period of 17 years. This UIW manufacturing method is the world’s first drying method to remove the water content inside the sea cucumber cell wall without damaging the cell wall itself. It is the exact opposite of normal drying methods and its hallmark is “shrinking of the sea-cucumber in an inflated state”.  This method retains the spikes peculiar to the Ezonamako (very close to their raw state). When the dried sea cucumber is rehydrated, it can be rehydrated more than 20-fold, but 10-fold is usual. BOJ’s proprietary UIW manufacturing method produces higher quality dried sea cucumbers.

Made in Japan② High quality products produced at our GMP certified factory in Japan.

Our Lapilika® supplement tablets and capsules are manufactured at domestic GMP certified factories *.
To ensure the delivery of safe and secure food to everyone, we have a manufacturing system that can continue to produce products of the highest standard.

*What is GMP certified factories?

Addressing environmental issues around the world through SDGs activities

Responsible consumption and production.
It is the responsibility of “making the energy of the sea into a product”.
We are looking to achieve the following four SDG goals.

10 Reduced Inequalties


We import and export equally and equally to all countries through fair trade. In particular, we will complete transactions with developing countries at regular prices, and contribute to accelerating the development of developing countries.

12 Responsible Consumption and Production


We are both responsible for capturing the rare and valuable sea cucumbers and for manufacturing the sea cucumbers themselves. To ensure the continued survival of sea cucumbers in the ocean, we must capture them in moderation. And we produce them in moderation. By maintaining this balance, we will realize the conservation of nature and the preservation of people’s health.

14 Life Below Water


In order to maintain the abundance of the ocean, our standard is not to overfish and not to overproduce. We are committed to ensure sea cucumbers remain in sufficient numbers in all areas in which we harvest them to ensure that the total sea environment remains where sea cucumbers are an important element in cleaning the sea floor.

17 Partnerships For The Goals


Collaboration with members from different countries and trading countries is one of our strengths and an essential element in achieving our goals. Facilitating business operations through a global network with members of various areas, including Taiwan, China, Peru, and India.
