When it comes to paving materials, many people may imagine asphalt or concrete. What we would like to introduce this time is "soil paving material," which is constructed by solidifying "soil." 【Content of the materials *Excerpt】 ■ What is soil paving material? ■ What is the Re-Earth method? ■ Types of Re-Earth methods ■ Construction process flow ■ Construction photos, etc. ★ We are also accepting visits to the exhibition hall. If you are interested, please feel free to come and visit. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

The "Re-Earth Method" was developed from the idea of re-evaluating the excellent characteristics of soil, pursuing "the science of soil," and the concept of "regaining citizenship for soil." <Disadvantages of Soil> ■ Becomes dust when dry,, ■ Dissolves in water and reverts to sludge,, ★ Rest assured! By mixing our developed "FC agent (solidification and stabilization treatment agent)," it is now possible to induce a chemical reaction in the soil, allowing it to be solidified and stabilized. <Features> ■ Excellent permeability ■ Made from inorganic materials, ensuring safety and cleanliness ■ Avoids the heat island phenomenon ■ Maintains durability and weather resistance ■ Allows for comfortable walking ■ Harmonizes well with the landscape *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

"Hard Soil" is a soil paving material that is applied using a kneading method (plastering technique) on a concrete or mortar base. It is a two-component curing type (powder and liquid) that does not use cement. By using an inorganic solidifying stabilizer (FC agent), the hydration crystal is stabilized, allowing the characteristics of the soil material to be fully expressed. 【Features】 ■ Excellent water retention ■ High durability ■ Colorable for enhanced design ■ Environmentally friendly *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The "Re-Earth Construction Method" is a technique that utilizes the excellent properties of soil (such as permeability, water retention, thermal insulation, transpiration, fire resistance, recyclability, etc.). Soil has certain disadvantages, such as "turning into dust when dry" and "dissolving into mud when wet," but by using a special additive called "FC agent (patented)" along with a small amount of cement and slag for soil paving, these disadvantages are eliminated. Additionally, in terms of cost, it allows for the effective use of leftover soil that would otherwise have to be discarded, achieving high efficiency. 【Benefits of "Soil" + "FC Agent"】 ■ Provides a gentle feel underfoot, making it easy to walk on ■ Uses soil from the construction site, resulting in excellent cost-effectiveness ■ Blends seamlessly with the surrounding nature, achieving harmony with the environment ■ Allows for adjustments in strength and functionality according to construction purposes *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

"Soft Breeze" is a natural interior finishing material made from 100% bamboo charcoal and zeolite. It uses materials that are considerate of health, employing inorganic solidifiers without harmful adhesives. Typically, applying plaster over a substrate requires some kind of adhesive that contains chemical substances. This product stabilizes the solid structure without compromising the functions of bamboo charcoal and zeolite by adding inorganic ionic compounds (FC agents), allowing for application without the use of adhesives (organic compounds). 【Features】 ■ Measures against sick house syndrome (addresses chemical substances) ■ Adsorbs various odors (deodorizing effect) ■ Comfortable during humid seasons (humidity control effect) ■ 100% carefully selected natural materials (no harmful substances used during construction) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
