Maximum production width of 7.2m. It allows passage from anywhere and softly envelops the space.

At first glance, it has an elegant appearance like lace curtains. However, once you touch it, you will surely be surprised by the multitude of functions. The common understanding of curtains and vertical blinds is about to change. ■ A New Light-Filtering Experience Born from U-Shaped Shades This is an unprecedented design where independent shades are connected, rather than using fabric like traditional curtains. The U-shaped shade, made of lace and thick fabric, can rotate to adjust light levels like blinds. Furthermore, unlike typical vertical blinds, there are no mechanisms like bottom cords, allowing for passage from any direction. ■ Easy Maintenance - Unique Detachable Mechanism and Stain-Resistant Fabric With a simple suspension style that connects adjacent fabric surfaces with clips, each piece can be removed individually. Any stains can be addressed by removing only the affected fabric, which can also be washed in a washing machine. ■ Fabric Lineup From modern to natural styles, choose the perfect image for your window. It offers a wide range of light-filtering patterns, from soft light to complete blackout and flame-retardant options. ■ Recipient of Numerous Prestigious Awards It has received special awards from the Kids Design Award for the safety of its cordless design, as well as design awards in Germany.

A comfortable indoor space all year round with a honeycomb structure! Simple screens available in a variety of operation types.

An insulated screen with a texture that combines warmth and tranquility. By trapping air in a honeycomb-like fabric, it demonstrates remarkable energy-saving effects and envelops your room in gentle light. ■ Cool in summer, warm in winter – Insulation and heat retention effects In summer, it suppresses the intrusion of heat into the room, while in winter, it minimizes the outflow of warm air from the room. Tests conducted by a third-party organization showed that when this product, made of blackout fabric, was installed around windows, it achieved a 78.1% improvement in heat insulation performance compared to having no coverings at all. ■ Versatile operating mechanisms to meet various needs – A total of 17 lineups Cordless options with no exposed cords on the surface, loop cords for comfortable operation even on large windows, top-only opening for up-and-down operation, types that allow for multiple fabric selections, and a new electric type that requires no power cord, introduced in 2023. ■ Sophisticated design With light-filtering, blackout, and flame-retardant types, as well as fabrics with the texture of washi paper and those that combine the best features of lace and light-filtering materials, there are a total of 10 types and approximately 100 color options! Additionally, there are 5 different cell sizes, and you can choose the number of screens from 1 to 3.

From formal to casual, partitions are also okay! A simple screen that is active in all kinds of scenes.

Roll screens that cover windows with just a single piece of fabric, without drapes or pleats, are the simplest window treatment products. We propose functional roll screens that are not only beautifully simple but also thoughtfully engineered for everyday living. ■ Limited Premium Fabrics Because it is a simple product, we have focused on the texture of the fabric. From the countless fabrics available worldwide, we have carefully selected about 120 types specifically for Japan. From this premium lineup, you are sure to find the perfect piece just for you. ■ Operation Types to Meet Various Needs In addition to the versatile "chain operation," we offer an intuitive "cordless type" that allows you to stop the screen at your desired position, as well as a stylish "electric type" that requires no outlet. ■ New High Light Blocking Mechanism "NORMAN Light Blocking Guide Rail Specification" A new specification has been introduced that is effective in places where you want to block light completely, such as bedrooms and conference rooms. By installing rails on both sides of the screen to block light, and equipping the surfaces that contact each rail with long mohair, it thoroughly blocks light.

Simple modern design. High light-blocking performance vertical blinds made of resin.

Stylish design and functionality make vertical blinds popular. However, light leakage that occurs between the headrail and slats has been a drawback. NORMAN has ingeniously designed the headrail mechanism to solve this problem, successfully expanding the possibilities of spatial design. ■ Bottom cordless & intuitive baton operation A safety design that eliminates the bottom cord unique to vertical blinds, with all operations performed using a single baton in a cordless design. It can be used safely in homes with small children and pets. ■ Modern impression of slat design We offer a total of 10 collections and 50 lineups of beautifully straight slats. In addition to plain types, we have embossed, wood grain finishes, and S-curved designs, allowing you to decorate your windows according to your interior image.

We will be exhibiting at the "Financial International Information Technology Exhibition" FIT Osaka 2026, which will be held at Grand Front Osaka on September 3 (Thursday) and September 4 (Friday). We will introduce the features of our human resources information system "Fellowship," which includes various functions useful for HR department operations, such as personnel management, payroll, and employment.

Our company will invite professors who are active at the forefront of university research to hold a web technology course in the construction field. This time, as a follow-up to "The Effects and Design Considerations of Shield Tunnels in Proximity and Adjacent Situations - Part 1," which was published in July, we will have a lecture by Professor Noriyuki Horiuchi from Kokushikan University. In "Part 1," we explained the phenomena of the effects caused by proximity and adjacent shield tunnels, using examples of left-right adjacency and passing beneath existing tunnels, as well as the basic concepts of numerical evaluation. In "Part 2," we will focus on the vertical adjacency of large-section shields. We will introduce analytical methods for numerically evaluating the impact on existing tunnels, surrounding ground, and existing underground structures, using actual site measurement data and FEM sequential excavation analysis, specifically in cases where large-section shields are constructed above or below existing tunnels. We will also discuss methods for predictive analysis, design, and construction considerations. This course will be beneficial for those studying for the "Professional Engineer Examination," so please take this opportunity to participate. Additionally, this course is a CPD accredited program by the Japan Society of Civil Engineers (planned), and you can also participate as part of engineer education. We sincerely look forward to your participation.

In this webinar, we will clearly explain effective operational methods based on media characteristics, timing for posting, and points for improvement after publication. It is not only important to "collect applications" in recruitment. To prevent mismatches and early turnover after hiring, it is crucial to review the entire recruitment process, including how job information is conveyed and what to confirm during the selection process. Therefore, we will also introduce how to design the recruitment process to prevent discrepancies in understanding with job seekers and to enhance retention rates. Additionally, in small and medium-sized enterprises with few recruitment personnel, the workload involved in creating job postings, responding to applicants, and measuring effectiveness can become a significant burden. We will also explain how to systematize and streamline media operations to make recruitment tasks more efficient, allowing continuous recruitment activities even with limited personnel. Finally, based on the content introduced this time, we will organize and convey specific improvement actions that can be implemented starting tomorrow. Even companies that find it difficult to increase their recruitment budget may have the potential to enhance recruitment outcomes by reviewing their choice of job media, job postings, operational methods, and recruitment processes.

JMP is software that not only excels in statistical analysis and graph creation but also has robust features for experimental design. By utilizing experimental design, efficient data collection can be achieved while minimizing time and costs. In this seminar, we will focus on the features of experimental design, specifically the sample size explorer and Bayesian optimization, and demonstrate examples of their application in the manufacturing industry. 【Overview】 First half: Utilization of t-tests in the manufacturing industry and simulation of required data numbers We will explain the overview and examples of t-tests, which are used for various purposes in the manufacturing industry, and present analysis examples using JMP. Additionally, we will introduce a method to simulate the relationship between the required data numbers for t-tests and statistical power using the sample size explorer. Second half: How to utilize JMP Pro Bayesian optimization – Application to simulation experimental data The Bayesian optimization platform is originally designed for experimental data that includes measurement errors, but there is also a strong demand to apply it to simulation experimental data that does not contain errors, such as CAE. In this seminar, we will introduce approaches for utilizing Bayesian optimization with simulation experimental data.
