Washoku (Japanese cuisine) was registered with UNESCO’s Intangible Cultural Heritage as a Japanese traditional food culture in 2013. It continues to attract worldwide attention as a healthy food style.
Dashi is indispensable for Washoku.
Dashi is a fundamental part in Japanese cooking. It gently enhances umami, taste and flavor of the ingredients.

The first paper carton, developed in 1987, are now very popular. When the glass and PET bottles were still the mainstream, paper cartons spread nationwide as an epoch-making product.
Five years later, we developed the food industry’s very first paper carton with a spout cap.
We continued its development by adding a 200ml paper carton with a new spout cap and a 500ml with a one-touch spout cap to our product line.
Our paper cartons that reduce environmental load from transport to disposal are highly valued around the world.

KAMADA SOY SAUCE Inc. has been conducting the voluntary radioactivity testing since March 21, 2012.
The voluntary testing is conducted by an internal qualified examiner. The device used for testing “NaI(Tl) scintillation spectrometer” meets the standards indicated in “Method for Testing Radioactive Caesium in Food”, as prescribed by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW).
We set our permissible level as one-fiftieth of the standard value established by the MHLW for general foods. We conduct inspections for every production lot from ingredients to the final products.
No such radiation has been detected in final products since inspections began.
