The Akazuyaki industry with all of the warmth of history consists mainly of domestic factories. Most of the techniques have been transmitted by word of mouth and swaythed in secrecy, such as is the case with "Chikura-koshi", a method of making the glaze typical of Akazuyaki from Chikura stone. The craftwork was restored by Shuntai Kato, and now, it is making the greatest leap ever in its history. Basic techniques and skill are being recorded and stored not as individual properties but as the industry's common assets. Each craftsman is devoting his originality, creativity and effort to Akazuyaki.

Under the leadership of Akazuyaki Industry Cooperative, the industry is taking action in securing raw materials, training successors, and securing and expanding the market.
