Founded in Tokyo in 1921, Hario—meaning "The King of Glass" in Japanese—began as a manufacturer of laboratory glassware. Over the decades, the company expanded its expertise in heatproof glass to create a diverse range of products, including household items like the renowned V60 coffee dripper, tea and kitchenware, as well as industrial glass components for automotive headlights. Hario is distinguished by its commitment to quality and environmental responsibility, operating a smokeless factory since 1972 by utilizing electric melting technology. With a century-long legacy of innovation and craftsmanship, Hario continues to enhance daily life through meticulously designed, durable glass products that blend functionality with aesthetic appeal.Hario
