In land sale transactions and the evaluation of business assets, it is essential to have scientific and robust data to prove the presence or absence of invisible soil contamination. This service is a voluntary investigation package that combines the highest level of analytical precision and reliable sampling techniques based on strict quality standards as a designated investigation agency. The initial phase of the investigation, the voluntary historical survey report, meticulously traces historical documents and administrative records of the land to clarify the location of potential contamination risks. The subsequent field survey employs precise sampling techniques based on proprietary know-how to accurately collect samples of soil and soil gas without causing contamination. The recovered samples are analyzed with high precision at a measurement certification facility that fully complies with the public methods specified by the Ministry of the Environment, ensuring that even trace amounts of harmful substances are quantified without being overlooked. By securing a scientific evidence report that eliminates ambiguity in advance, we completely prevent post-transfer defect issues and unexpected environmental liabilities, thereby ensuring the preservation of the asset value of important land and guaranteeing absolute safety in transactions.

Even in land transactions that do not meet the specific requirements set forth by the Soil Contamination Countermeasures Act and do not trigger statutory obligations such as investigation orders from authorities, the risk of harmful substances being present in the ground cannot be completely denied. If a company neglects to take measures on the grounds that there is no obligation, and contamination is revealed after the transfer, it may face severe disadvantages such as social penalties beyond the legal framework, enormous environmental liabilities, and long-term legal disputes. This service is a voluntary investigation solution designed to proactively maintain corporate compliance and social responsibility, free from legal constraints. Leveraging advanced expertise as a designated investigation agency, we voluntarily conduct everything from self-initiated historical land use investigation reports that objectively substantiate the land's usage history to precise sampling analyses that demonstrate the presence or absence of contamination. By ensuring reliable scientific data is available before the transaction, we can completely visualize and eliminate often-overlooked ground risks, strongly supporting advanced governance appeals to stakeholders and ensuring safe and secure real estate transactions.
