"Koke-pochi" sold by Eco Earth is a green interior that combines traditional Japanese moss balls and a frame with a "deodorant function".
The frame is said to have a function to decompose and eliminate the source of the collected odor by combining bamboo charcoal, which is a porous material and has an odor adsorption effect, and a group of naturally occurring Bacillus bacteria. It is said to be effective against all possible odors in the room, such as cigarettes, toilets, kitchen waste, and pets.
Also, when the frame is no longer needed, it can be effectively used as a soil conditioner by crushing it and putting it in a planter or flowerpot, and it is a product that is kind to nature.
There are two frame colors, black and white, and a variety of designs that match both Western and Japanese rooms are available. The price starts from about 2,000 yen. When the moss balls are dry, they are simply soaked in water, so the burden of maintenance is small, and they are likely to be appreciated as gifts for new construction and moving celebrations.
The company is also developing an "eco-pochi" series in which foliage plants such as pachira and banyan trees can be grown. You can also purchase the type with plants planted in advance or only the plant kit. Both can be purchased from the company's official shopping site.
