Tiger Corporation, based in Osaka, Japan, was founded in 1923 and has continued to deliver accessible household products for daily living. It all started with glass vacuum bottles and went on to expand to rice cookers, stainless steel beverage containers, electric water heaters, and other cooking appliances. Since 1923, with the strength of our vacuum insulation technology and other creative products we introduced, we have been able to deliver convenience and comfort to our customers in a variety of every day scenarios.
In 2012, Tiger Corporation formulated our new Corporate Beliefs. Our mission statement is “We will continue to create new every day essentials for the dining experience with ideas that produce warmth.” With this we aim to become a company that will continue to grow for hundreds of years. As globalization of the company has progressed, we have established sales bases in Shanghai, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Vietnam and the U.S.A.
The vacuum bottle, which is the origin on which this company was founded, is a product that not only functions to keep drinks warm; it plays the role of a magic tool that warms the hearts of those who drink from it. Even though the times may change, our resolve remains the same. Tiger Corporation will always continue to help put smiles on peoples’ faces so they can share their smiles with others, which will help people create happy and comfortable lifestyles. We hope you continue to enjoy life with Tiger products and we look forward to your continued support in the future.

JIA Inc. was established in Hong Kong in 2007 to create a new direction in the modern home-ware market.
Across cultural boundaries
While based on Asian culture, JIA Inc. welcomes discussion and different points of views. JIA Inc. projects are often created through the combination of this dialogue and with the identification of objects that are relevant to both the Asian and Western dining table.
Across the boundaries of tradition & modernity
JIA Inc. continuously attempts to strike a balance between the old and the new and aims to re-interpret traditional Asian materials and craftsmanship through modern design typologies and creative thinking.
Across Living spaces
JIA Inc. believes that home objects should not be defined by living spaces but instead should fit many different modern lifestyles and environments: a casserole in the kitchen is also a focal point in the dining room during gatherings at home and a lovely bowl has as much reason to create a scene on your balcony as it has on the breakfast table.
Sori Yanagi was a famous Japanese product designer who was influential in Japan’s post World War II high-growth period. He is a representative of Japanese modern design, merging simplicity and practicality with elements of traditional Japanese craftsmanship.
His kitchen product design series started from stainless cutlery in 1974 and expanded to kettles, pans and bowls. Many of his furniture design pieces are featured in MoMA.
His design concept is beauty in simplicity and thoughtful functionality details. As most of his cookware look very simple, you may not tell the differences or benefits by just looking. However, once you started using his wares, it’s hard to go back to using other brands. The balance in design, high quality craftsmanship and user-friendliness are the qualities that enable these items to endure for half a century. His popular cookware, such as Nambu Tekki cast iron pots & pans, kettles, kitchen knives and bowl/strainers are perfectly designed and made in Japan by skilled craftsmen. You can use Sori Yanagi cookware for many years to come.
