Founded in 1921 in Tokyo, Japan, HARIO began as a manufacturer of heatproof glassware for scientific laboratories. The company’s name—meaning “King of Glass”—reflects its deep expertise in producing high-quality borosilicate glass, originally developed for chemical beakers and measuring instruments.
In the decades since, HARIO has applied its scientific precision and glassmaking innovation to the world of coffee and tea. It is best known globally for the invention of the V60 dripper, a revolutionary cone-shaped pour-over device that became a staple for specialty coffee professionals and home brewers alike.
From cold brew bottles and teapots to precision servers and brewers, every HARIO product is designed with the same commitment to functionality, quality, and elegant simplicity. Today, HARIO remains the only manufacturer in Japan with its own heatproof glass factory, continuing to blend traditional craftsmanship with modern brewing innovation.
