Nihon Rikagaku Industry Proposes 'Family Summer Art' Using 'Kitpas' Window Drawing Tools

'Family Summer Art': Staying Cool and Safe Indoors This Summer

Nihon Rikagaku Industry, manufacturer of dustless chalks with a 70% domestic market share and 'Kitpas', solid markers that can be drawn on and erased from windows, is proposing 'Family Summer Art', an indoor creative experience designed for safety during the summer heat.

This project invites families to use Kitpas to turn their home windows into canvases. To support this, the company began distributing free 'helpful template data' on its official website on May 20, 2026, allowing even small children to draw summer scenes easily.

### Background: Extreme Heat and Enhancing Home Time With rising summer temperatures due to global warming, outdoor play is becoming difficult. This initiative was planned to provide dynamic, sensory-driven experiences while staying cool indoors. Kitpas is primarily made from rice wax, making it safe for all ages.

### Easy-to-Use Free Template Data To address concerns about the difficulty of drawing on windows, the company provides two patterns: - 'Sea' - 'Fireworks'

Simply print these (e.g., in A4 size), tape them to the outside of the window, and trace from the inside to decorate the room for summer. Drawing together as a family is a perfect way to create memories.

### Product Lineup - Kitpas Medium (6/12/16/24 colors) - Kitpas Block (8 colors) - Kitpas Large (12 colors)

The products have won the 'Japan Stationery Awards 2024' Grand Prix and the international 'iF Design Award', meeting global standards in both design and quality.
