Tsugi-Craft InstagramHERGOPOCH
TOYOTA UPCYCLE is a project that creates new value from materials generated across manufacturing industries, including the automobile manufacturing process, by exploring their unique characteristics and enhancing their potential through human ingenuity, skill, and craftsmanship.
Together with partners across materials, manufacturing, and sales functions, we bring together knowledge and technologies to expand the possibilities of materials.
Through these efforts, we strive for a future where mottainai, the Japanese sense that something is too valuable to waste, becomes a valuable use of waste.
Tsugi-Craft by TOYOTA UPCYCLE is a new choice in premium upcycling.
Tsugi-Craft brings out the value of leather offcuts that carry the spirit of automobile manufacturing, refining their unique character through careful craftsmanship.
By combining the detailed handwork of Japanese sewing factories with Toyota Motor Corporation's expertise in manufacturing industrial products, we join each piece together to create new value.
The word "tsugi" represents our philosophy of continuing, joining together, and living on into the future.
Continuing materials. Continuing skills. Joining people together. And carrying them all into the future.
This stationery series by Toyota is created through the upcycling of premium seat leather scraps originally used in LEXUS vehicles.
Enjoy the unique colors, textures, and markings that come only from these offcuts — each piece tells its own story.
Blending seamlessly into everyday life, these items also serve as subtle expressions of individuality and personal style.
The story unique to offcuts
Leather offcuts from automobile seats carry unique characteristics, such as scratches, wrinkles, and variations in texture, that are inherent to natural materials.
At TOYOTA UPCYCLE, we embrace these characteristics as part of each piece's individuality and carefully craft every product to bring out its unique expression.
We study the character of each piece, join different pieces together, and refine them through careful handwork.
The result is a product in which the individuality of every piece comes to life—a texture and craftsmanship unique to leather offcuts.
We hope you enjoy the one-of-a-kind character of your piece and cherish it for years to come.
If you’d prefer a cleaner look, instructions for reducing visible marks are included with the product.
Toyota’s outdoor collection, designed with campers in mind.
Made from upcycled seatbelt scraps and the highly durable nylon base fabric used in airbags,
this collection reduces waste and minimizes environmental impact,
offering outdoor gear that combines practicality with functionality.
Scraps reborn through dyeing
When nylon fabric is dyed, adding dye at high temperatures creates a distinctive texture. During this process, the nylon shrinks, giving rise to an appealing, wrinkle-like pattern in the textile.
In this way, materials once considered waste are reborn into products of greater value.
Toyota’s Lifestyle collection breathes new life into materials sourced from the vehicle manufacturing process and everyday car use. Designed as the perfect companion for drives and outings, each item combines premium textures with a refined design, seamlessly elevating your everyday moments.
Live each day your way.
By thoughtfully combining the distinct colors and textures unique to each vehicle model, former manufac- turing offcuts are reborn as beautiful textiles. The result is a truly one-of-a-kind material, reimagined with entirely new value.
Every piece of material possesses its own distinct texture and character. By embracing these unique traits, they are transformed into entirely new creations with renewed purpose and value.
An exclusive collection available only at THE CROWN, the specialty store for the Toyota Crown.
