　　Shaxian is known as the "Hometown of Bamboo Mats in China." The production of bamboo mats in Shaxian has a long history. Early on, local artisans crafted a variety of woven bamboo mats that were widely used and highly popular. After the 1980s, mechanized double-sided bamboo mats were introduced from Japan and Taiwan, leading to the establishment of Shaxian’s first bamboo mat manufacturer — Mingfeng Bamboo Products Co., Ltd. Its products were mainly exported to Japan, Taiwan, and other regions, with an annual sales volume of around 100,000 mats. Since then, the production of bamboo mats in Shaxian has evolved from scattered workshops to centralized manufacturing, product types have diversified from single styles to a wide range, and the business has grown from small-scale operations into a large industry.

　　The Tianhe Brand Premium Health Bamboo Mat is made from high-quality moso bamboo sourced from the Tianhu Mountain area. It is processed using the latest technology and techniques while the bamboo is still fresh, and features translucent nylon strips (threads) for weaving. This innovative bamboo product retains the natural green bamboo surface — smooth, delicate, breathable, and cool. While sleeping, the mat gently massages different parts of the body through movement, helping to relieve fatigue and refresh the body. It boasts an elegant and refined design, along with soft, pleasing colors. Through scientific steaming and baking processes, it is resistant to decay and insects, durable, and does not warp or break. It is especially suitable for use on luxury Simmons mattresses. Using it in summer adds a touch of elegance to any room.

　　The Tianhe Brand also offers a range of bamboo products, including seat cushions for cars, trains, ships, airplanes, and home sofas, as well as bamboo pillow mats for bedrooms.

　　In terms of product processing, Shaxian bamboo mats have also evolved from coarse to fine, and from single-style to diverse designs. From the initial traditional and standard bamboo mats, the range has expanded to include over 100 varieties across 10 series — such as mahjong-style, plum-blossom-style, antique-craft-style, woven-floral-style, crystal-glass-edge premium, laser-engraved floral, plum-blossom-with-beads, magnetic-therapy-health, compact-premium, and more. This has created a full range of low-, mid-, and high-end options, combining quality, innovation, and affordability. Continuous product innovation has further refined the product mix, giving the brand a competitive edge in the market and increasing its market share. According to statistics, the "Tianhe" brand bamboo mat holds a 26.3% share of the national market for similar products, ranking first in the industry.

　　In 1996, the "Tianhe" brand bamboo mat was awarded the title of "China’s Trusted Quality Product by Consumers." In 1997, it received the "Sichuan Market Quality Trusted Brand" and "Sichuan Market Best-Selling Brand." In 1998, it earned honors such as one of Fujian Province’s Top 100 Famous Township Enterprise Products and Fujian’s Best-Selling Local Commodity. In 1999, it won the Golden Award at the Fujian Specialties Exhibition during the World Expo, the "1999 International Agricultural Expo Famous Brand Product," and the Golden Award at the China Bamboo Culture Festival International Bamboo Industry Expo. In 2000, it was awarded the Golden Award at the Fujian Agricultural Premium Products Exhibition. In 2001, Shaxian was also designated as the "Hometown of Bamboo Mats in China." From June 8 to 10, 2001, the China (Sanming) Bamboo and Rattan Products Trade Fair was held in Shaxian.
