An unwavering pursuit of craftsmanship
An unwavering pursuit of craftsmanship
Conceived upon shimmering lakes, tranquil forests and snowcapped mountains - MANITO’s origin in Vancouver began with an intention to advocate for nature. Our founders, Mr Kenmuir and the Zhang Family, sought to continue a lineage of meticulous artistry working with mulberry silk and weaving it with sophisticated functional luxury.
The second skin of the human body

In his years consulting for businesses in different industries, Mr Kenmuir’s deep appreciation for mulberry silk derived from an opportunity to work with a Japanese cosmetic brand. Comprised of natural protein fibres such as keratin and collagen, while rich with 18 types of amino acids - the benefit of silk is known as “the second skin of the human body”. Its transformational healing properties were the perfect prescription to alleviate skin issues experienced by baby boomers such as Mr Kenmuir himself.

His personal insight drew him towards a partnership with the Zhang family, whose devotion to silk was cultivated through the legacy of becoming one of the most influential silk maker families in China. From planting mulberry trees and raising silkworms to establishing a silk reeling factory, the insistence on excellence is deeply rooted in the Zhang family legacy. Together in 2008, they developed a luxury home collection unrivalled in excellence for MANITO’s launch, lavishly fashioned with only mulberry silk - a breathtaking aspiration to elevate sleep quality whilst leveraging the benefits of skin improvement and hair rejuvenation.
