About Clay Zone Land

Founded in Tokyo, 2015 • Shibuya-ku

How It Started

Born from a Restless Night

Clay Zone Land was founded in 2015 by sleep researcher Dr. Aiko Nakamura and product designer Tomohiro Ishida. After years studying the science of sleep and frustration with the mattresses available in Japan, they set out to build something better — a mattress designed specifically for the way Japanese people live, move, and sleep.

Starting with a single showroom in Shibuya, they hand-assembled each mattress and personally delivered every order within Tokyo. Today, Clay Zone Land has grown to serve over 18,000 customers across Japan, but the founding principle remains unchanged: better sleep changes lives.

Our Mission

Sleep Is Not Optional. It Is Essential.

Japan has one of the world's highest rates of sleep deprivation. We believe this is not inevitable — it is a design problem. The wrong mattress, the wrong temperature, the wrong support level can cost you hours of deep sleep every single night.

Clay Zone Land exists to solve that problem. Every product we make — from our flagship DreamCloud Pro to our CloudPillow accessories — is engineered around one question: what does a person need to sleep as deeply and as well as possible?

We collaborate with sleep clinics, physiotherapists, and materials scientists to keep our products at the frontier of sleep science. Because you deserve more than just rest — you deserve genuine recovery.

What We Stand For

Our Core Values

01

Science First

Every material choice, every foam density, every spring gauge is decided by data from peer-reviewed sleep research — not by cost-cutting or trend-chasing.

02

Radical Transparency

We publish the full ingredient list of every mattress we sell. No hidden foams, no vague "proprietary blends." You know exactly what you are sleeping on.

03

Zero-Risk Promise

Our 100-night trial and 10-year warranty are not marketing tactics — they are a direct expression of our confidence in every mattress we build.
