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

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.

• Disaster prevention supplies

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.

Starting from October 2025, Panasonic's indoor units for office and store air conditioners will be renewed! In this renewal, all models will come standard with "100 times nanoe X." This not only enhances comfort with commercial air conditioning but also contributes to improving air quality. Additionally, improvements in installation efficiency to enhance on-site work productivity and a strengthened lineup to accommodate diverse spaces have been implemented. The new indoor units are equipped with high concentrations of nanoe X as standard! They demonstrate a high effectiveness in purifying indoor air during air conditioner operation, providing a safer and more comfortable environment for office and store users and employees. Furthermore, the center of the suction inlet and the center of the hanging bolt have been unified. This allows for the combined use of canvas ducts and panels, improving installation efficiency. If you have any questions or would like a quote, please feel free to contact us. We will fully support you in replacing your commercial air conditioning!
