“Kaleido” was created through the collaboration of ISHIKAWA GIKEN INDUSTRY CO., LTD. and kaleidoscope artists, utilizing the uniquely designed decorative pipe “EPIPE.” By incorporating the beauty of kaleidoscopes into pipes, “Kaleido” allows users to enjoy the surrounding space with a different expression.Established in 1970 in Hakusan City, Ishikawa Prefecture, the company developed Japan’s first stainless clad pipe (ICS pipe) using electric welding. The ICS pipe is a steel pipe coated with an ultra-thin (0.1mm) layer of stainless steel SUS304 and has been widely used for hanger pipes and decorative applications. “Kaleido” applies decorative processing to these ICS pipes, transforming them into “EPIPE,” which has the presence of an art piece rather than just a functional pipe. Additionally, some kaleidoscopes feature Ishikawa Prefecture’s traditional crafts, including “gold leaf,” “Kutani ware-style painting,” and “maki-e” lacquer decoration. The company’s mission is to provide products that exceed customer expectations under the motto of “trusted products,” “continuous research,” and “contributing to society through our business.” “Kaleido” embodies this philosophy, offering captivating design and high-quality craftsmanship that will be cherished by many.
