Innovative Beauty at Haneda Airport
The charm of innovative silicone glasses from KINJO JAPAN has transformed Haneda Airport into a visual spectacle. As part of the installation titled "HANEDA SKY - Pure Filter Installation by Itoen," these glasses were attained for an artistic sensory experience that merges creativity with sustainability.
KINJO JAPAN's Unique Glasses
KINJO JAPAN, a brand of Kinjo Gomu Co., Ltd., has developed silicone glass series that boast the same transparency as traditional glass while being unbreakable. This uniquely engineered material allows for a resilient yet elegant design, making it a perfect fit for an installation meant to dazzle.
During the Tokyo Creative Salon 2025, the installation showcased alternating layers of KINJO JAPAN's silicone glasses and bottles filled with the new Ques-tea from Itoen. This sparkling tower of tea bottles and glasses captivated the attention of visitors, creating an inviting atmosphere filled with the serene beauty of an art installation that also serves practical purposes.
Haneda Sky: A Taste of Innovation
The "HANEDA SKY" installation is an artistic exploration of Itoen's new cold-brew tea bags, Ques-tea. This innovative product features Japan's first plant-based biodegradable filters, aiming to redefine the tea experience. Visitors could enjoy a variety of cold brew teas during the event, including blends such as green tea with rose and Taiwanese oolong tea mixed with herbs.
At this event, the KINJO JAPAN glasses were not just installation pieces; they could be reused as functional drinkware. The sustainable aspect of being able to utilize these products post-event aligns with today's growing consumer demand for eco-friendly solutions. This design philosophy reflects the ongoing trend towards sustainability and user-centric products.
