Reviving Wardrobe Treasures - Takeru Furuta, Master Cleaner

Takeru Furuta, age 75. They call him the King of Cleaners. How good is he? Individual customers use his services, of course, but so do department stores, luxury brand boutiques and even other cleaners! The most challenging cleaning jobs from around Japan are sent to him. Using an arsenal of advanced cleaning methods, Furuta and his team rejuvenate these wardrobe treasures to like-new condition. Whenever he works, he always remembers that his customers have entrusted him with precious memories. Every piece of clothing has a story. Furuta revives not just garments, but the memories within.
Furuta is often entrusted with garments that other cleaners have damaged, or have refused to take on. Even with his 60 years of experience, he sometimes wants to turn a job down, for fear he will ruin a garment. But he always tells himself, "There has to be some way. If I back out when people bring me the tough ones, then what's the point of doing this job? A professional faces fear head-on". Meet Takeru Furuta, a man who can conquer any stain, a man who has dedicated his life to the craft of cleaning clothes.
