Introducing "Pig Water Bags" for flood damage prevention due to typhoons and heavy rainfall!

We will outline a path for companies to become resilient to flooding and provide specific methods to minimize risks.

The rainy season has fully set in, but are you adequately prepared for flood damage? In "Flood Damage Countermeasures During the Rainy Season Part 2," we outline the path for companies to become resilient against floods and provide specific methods to minimize risks. In Part 1, we explained the recent occurrences of flooding, the use of hazard maps for flood prediction, and securing evacuation routes. In Part 2, we will focus on the types and quantities of supplies needed during a disaster, how to develop a Business Continuity Plan (BCP), and advanced initiatives. We hope that by sharing know-how for immediate and appropriate responses during disasters, we can contribute to the safety of your company.

I will answer the question, "How should companies prepare for flood damage prevention?" Now, before the rainy season begins, let's prepare for typhoons and heavy rains.

Flood damage poses a significant risk to businesses. In recent years, the damage caused by floods and heavy rains has increased, greatly impacting corporate performance and sustainability. For example, the damage from the heavy rains in western Japan in July 2018 and Typhoon No. 19 in October 2019 is still fresh in our memories, and it is important to learn from these cases. Every time we see news about corporate facilities such as offices, warehouses, factories, and stores suffering from flooding, many stakeholders may worry, "Is our company going to be okay?" Measures against flooding have become extremely important for business continuity. To address the question of "How should companies implement flood prevention measures?", we will introduce the basics of flood prevention in two parts. Now, before the rainy season begins, let’s prepare for typhoons and heavy rains.

Measures against flooding damage caused by typhoons and heavy rain! Uses superabsorbent polymer *Video explanation available.

● It is a water-absorbing, inflatable, bag-shaped simple dam. ● Recommended for flood prevention measures against heavy rain and typhoons. ● Before absorbing water, it is lightweight and easy to handle, and can be stored compactly. It won't be a nuisance even if kept on hand. ● When in use, fill the container with about 20 liters of water for each Pig Water Bag, and knead it by hand while allowing it to absorb water. It will inflate in about 5 minutes. ● The Pig Water Bags can be stacked up to three layers. ● If unopened, the shelf life is approximately 5 years. *Currently, we are offering a document summarizing recent trends in flood damage.

A clean, reusable, aesthetically pleasing water-specific sock-like absorbent material. It can be used to prevent water leaks and condensation from refrigerators, freezers, and cold cases.

- Made of polypropylene, it has the effect of suppressing mold growth, allowing for safe use over a long period. - By squeezing out the absorbed water and allowing it to air dry, it can be reused. Please avoid sun drying or using a dryer. Reuse is recommended up to three times. - Even after reuse, it maintains its shape well and is less prone to bacterial growth, which helps control odors. - It is flexible and fits well around the refrigerator and in corners. - The polypropylene cover is resistant to tearing and durable.

Details of the FaceMe Security 8.3 Update < Revamped UX for Action & Alert Rule Settings > Previously, individual settings were required for each action even within the same rule. By completely overhauling the UI and UX, we have transformed the operation screen to allow for intuitive and efficient configuration. ▶ Key Update Points - Multiple actions (notifications, access control, VMS integration, etc.) can now be set within a single rule. - The settings screen has been consolidated into a single page, allowing for an overview and editing of the entire configuration at a glance. < Enhanced Integration Features with Face Terminal (Facial Recognition Terminal) > FaceMe Security integrates with the MSK Knoctoi series (Standard/Lite), enabling door opening and closing based on facial recognition results without the need for additional devices. This update allows for detailed configuration of door opening and closing rules based on location, time of day, and groups of individuals, enabling more flexible access management tailored to on-site operations. ▶ Expected Implementation Scenarios - All employees can enter the entrance, while only administrators can enter specific areas at night, etc.

We will introduce the implementation results of the sensor technology developed by the Hotron Group, which has been cultivated over more than half a century, through customer case studies. In addition to automatic door sensors, we also offer a wide range of vehicle detection sensors and nursing/care sensors. We have many implementation examples available, so please take a look at the case study page.

[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I'm worried about not colliding with pedestrians when leaving the parking lot in my car..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, those particularly facing sidewalks or roadways are expected to pose risks of dangerous incidents such as collisions with pedestrians or between vehicles. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Departure Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures using various sensors and alerts the surroundings with LED lights and buzzers. The device consists of a simple configuration of "Sensor" + "Controller" + "Switching Power Supply (24V)" + "LED Rotating Light." *Please note that a separate control panel including the controller and switching power supply (24V) is required when using the departure warning system. *We kindly ask customers to arrange for the switching power supply (24V), LED rotating light, control panel, circuit breakers, etc. Since it can be retrofitted, it can also be used for existing parking lot entrances. We hope this will contribute to safer vehicle passage for everyone. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
