[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I'm worried about not colliding with pedestrians when exiting the parking lot..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, particularly at entrances facing sidewalks or roadways, there is a risk of dangerous incidents such as collisions with pedestrians or between vehicles. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Vehicle Exit Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures using various sensors and alerts the surrounding area with LED lights and buzzers. The system consists of a simple configuration of "sensor" + "controller" + "switching power supply (24V)" + "LED rotating light." *Please note that a separate control panel is required to include the controller and switching power supply (24V) when using the exit 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.

G&ECO has been promoting the initiative "1.5 for the future" since 2022, donating a portion of the sales from its product "ELSONA" to nonprofit organizations that support the introduction of renewable energy. As part of this effort, we continue to be a corporate supporter of the NPO Sora Bear Foundation. Following last year, we are also sponsoring the "Sora Bear Sonael Project" this year, and we are pleased to announce that the donation gardens have been decided and announced in the second public recruitment held from July 1 to September 5, 2025. The "Sora Bear Sonael Project" supports the use of renewable energy and enhances disaster preparedness by donating "portable power sources" and "solar panels" to kindergartens attended by preschool children. Additionally, we hold an environmental and disaster education program called the "Sora Bear Workshop," providing children with opportunities to learn about the environment and disasters in a fun way. Through this project, we hope to contribute to the spread of renewable energy in the community and raise awareness among the children who will lead the future. G&ECO will continue to value "what can be done for the future" and contribute to the realization of a sustainable society.
