About Hario
If you're searching for an eco-friendly coffee brand with a rich heritage, look no further than Hario—the self-proclaimed "King of Glass." Established in Tokyo in 1921, Hario originally focused on creating heatproof glass for medical and laboratory purposes, showcasing their commitment to precision and quality from day one.
Through extensive research and development, Hario created glass made from 100% natural materials, demonstrating their unwavering dedication to environmental sustainability. Their commitment didn't stop there—they pioneered a revolutionary approach to glass manufacturing, proving that glass could be produced using electricity instead of oil, dramatically reducing pollution and promoting a cleaner planet.
In 1948, Hario expanded from laboratory equipment to household products, bringing their expertise in precision manufacturing to everyday coffee and tea brewing. Today, their product line includes the iconic V60 drippers, precision kettles in multiple finishes, manual grinders, brewing scales, filters, and more—all designed with the same attention to quality and environmental responsibility that has defined the brand for over a century.
