Takaki Works ZEN BOAB – Made in Japan
Handcrafted precision. Built for pros who value balance, simplicity, and quiet performance.
The ZEN BOAB is designed and made in Japan by Takaki Works, a small workshop known for crafting beautifully functional cleaning tools. Unlike standard plastic buckets-on-a-belt, this soft-sided BOAB uses durable waterproof materials, quiet hardware, and meticulous stitching for a premium, lightweight feel on your hip.
It keeps your squeegee, washer, and detailing tools close at hand — without the slosh, clatter, or bulk of a hard-shell BOAB. Perfect for window cleaners who want something refined and minimal that still performs on-site every day.

Paul 30 November 2025A brilliant bit of kit
The Boab is your every day necessary piece of kit - if it is cumbersome it makes you less effective. So I am always looking to see if there is improvements in the product I have used the Unger, the Samurai and the Moermon Drywalker - I thought the Drywalker was the goods - then I used the Zen. Adjustable compartments are awesome, the fabric casing prevents bashing around. The way you can set up this up means all the tools you need at your dominant hand is brilliant and in a compact layout.
