Why Leading Manufacturers Choose Dry Fog for Humidity Control
Growing mushrooms… in a newspaper printing plant?
What began as one employee’s unconventional idea has grown into a new revenue stream.
Facing declining print demand, the printing plant discovered that its precisely controlled temperature, humidity, and 24/7 staffed operations were also ideal for cultivating wood-ear mushrooms—a traditional edible fungus widely used in Asian cuisine and increasingly popular worldwide as a healthy, nutrient-rich food.
How do our Dry Fog humidifiers help maintain the ideal environment for this delicate crop—without wetting surfaces, equipment, or floors?
Quality recognizes quality: leading textile manufacturers choose Dry Fog
Even the most advanced looms can’t produce high-quality towels if humidity is too low. IKEUCHI ORGANIC, an eco-friendly manufacturer of Imabari towels — Japan’s renowned premium towel brand — was struggling with static electricity and weaving defects caused by dry air, as well as wet floors from conventional humidifiers in their plant.
After introducing our Dry Fog humidification system, they achieved stable, product-specific humidity control that supports consistent fabric quality, safer working conditions, and more efficient production.

Why is Dry Fog “dry”?
What makes a non-wetting fog possible?
Why don’t surfaces get wet—even during continuous, effective humidification?
It’s not only that the droplets are tiny; it’s that there are no large droplets to cause wetting.

Our AKIMist “E” sprays a Dry Fog—an ultra-fine mist with a mean droplet diameter of 10 μm or less—and, just as importantly, no droplets larger than 50 μm. Other humidifiers may also produce small droplets on average—but they often still include larger ones that cause wetting and uneven humidification.
By eliminating those larger droplets, our Dry Fog humidification systems help protect sensitive equipment, electronics, and materials while maintaining optimal humidity across diverse production environments.
