翔飛工業 Company Profile

Eco Kawara Terrazzo, chosen as the ultimate recycled product, is a project that recycles industrial waste into paving materials, exterior wall materials, and flooring materials.

I want to contribute to disaster recovery, local production for local consumption, and regional revitalization by utilizing tiles, bricks, ceramics, glass, and bottles that were discarded due to earthquakes or aging. We recycled tiles from Kumamoto Castle, which were damaged in the earthquake, and tiles from Chiba Prefecture that were discarded due to typhoons, using them as paving materials for sidewalks and roads, as well as interior wall and floor materials. By leveraging the characteristics of industrial waste such as tiles, glass, and ceramics that are discarded in daily life, we developed environmentally friendly products that realize sustainable design. We are working towards building a circular society by promoting the 3Rs and ethical consumption, aiming for local production for local consumption, regional revitalization, and community activation. We have developed recycled paving materials effective for heat island measures by utilizing the characteristics of tiles from Kumamoto Castle, which were damaged in the 2016 earthquake, and tiles discarded during the 2019 Typhoon in East Japan and the Boso Peninsula. Our construction achievements include the upper mountain green space in Minamisanriku Town, Miyagi Prefecture, and the stairs and sidewalks of Hibiya Park in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo. In 2021, we launched the "Kumamoto Castle 'Disaster-Damaged Tile' Regeneration Project." We raised funds through crowdfunding, and except for some expenses, the collected donations were contributed to initiatives for regional revitalization in Kumamoto Prefecture and to support workers responding to the COVID-19 pandemic in Kumamoto Prefecture.
