Responsible Manufacturing Statement
A declaration born from the desire not to contribute to creating a negative environment.
HERALBONY's products deliver a message to society to achieve this ideal.
In the manufacturing process, we do not want to impose burdens on manufacturers or the natural environment.
We want to avoid, as much as possible, making choices that inadvertently step on someone's toes. That is our wish.
From a manufacturing perspective,
we strive to fulfill our responsibilities as much as possible.
Developing our own products to achieve the society HERALBONY envisions
To spread our philosophy, we believe three ideas are essential:
・Create overwhelmingly excellent products.
・Foster communication that transforms perceptions of disability, centered around the product.
・Establish a sustainable business model in the field of disability welfare, not just provide support.
These principles led us to a business model focused on in-house product development.
The responsible and intentional choices HERALBONY embodies through "Monozukuri" (craftsmanship).
For HERALBONY, responsibility means not making choices that create bias, undue burden, or unreasonableness for all people and things involved in manufacturing.
In other words, it is about shining brightly in a healthy cycle.
We will realize manufacturing based on this vision.

HERALBONY Today
We have immense respect for the authors and their works.
In creating products that feature their works and deliver them to customers, we also want to extend this circle of respect to everyone involved in the manufacturing process and to the environment.
However, as a developing brand, our sales volume is limited, and since we rely on sales to continue our business, our choices for materials and resources available for development are restricted.
Facing this dilemma, what we can do is honestly acknowledge what we are currently able to do and what we are not, accept it, and through trial and error, make the best choices we can right now, gradually moving towards a better direction.
While considering our ideals and what we are currently capable of, we have developed this year's goals for promoting responsible manufacturing.
FY26 Goals
- 1. Twenty percent of the main materials used in all products are on our proprietary selection criteria list.
- 2. Visited 6 manufacturing sites (one visit every two months) out of all product manufacturers
- 3. We will ensure 50% traceability for the final stage, 30% for processing, and 20% for fabric in the manufacturing process of all products.
* Fabric traceability is defined as having a clear understanding of the factories that performed processes such as weaving to transform raw materials into fabric.
* Selection criteria for main materials
