Overwhelming lightness × high strength: Capable of stacking 1,000 kg of products in three layers! 100% recyclable and environmentally friendly.

The "Eco Board Palette" is a paper pallet with outstanding strength. It can flexibly adapt to various applications. It is available in a wide range of variations and sizes, from lightweight to ultra-heavy, and size changes can be made freely. Additionally, no wooden or metal molds are required. It contributes to environmental considerations under the "SDGs" and to "White Logistics" through palletization! 【Features】 ■ Strong compression and bending strength ■ Improved workability ■ No fumigation or disinfection required ■ Strong in high humidity ■ 100% recyclable ■ Stable manufacturing through mechanization *For more details, please download the PDF or contact us.

• Material handling systems and equipment

No disinfection or fumigation required for export. Suitable for packaging of bundled items, rolls, precision parts, and large, heavy products! Despite being made of paper, it can also accommodate heavy items (over 1000 kg).

The "Eco Board Sleeve Set" is a comprehensive packaging system that does not require disinfection or fumigation during export. Unlike wooden packaging, it does not use nails, making assembly and disassembly easy. Since all components, including the pallet, sleeve, and lid, are made of paper, there is no risk of damaging products with nails or splinters. Additionally, it allows for flexible design tailored to the product, enabling efficient transportation. It contributes to environmental considerations under the "SDGs" and supports "White Logistics" through palletization! 【Features】 ■ Core structure that makes it difficult for moisture to penetrate, strong in high humidity ■ Capable of handling heavy loads (over 1000kg) despite being made of paper ■ Lightweight and easy to handle! Leads to reduced transportation costs ■ Mass production and short delivery times are possible while maintaining high quality due to mechanized manufacturing ■ Easy to handle even for women *For more details, please refer to the external link page or feel free to contact us.

Safe transportation of delicate roll products such as film products without damage! Made with reinforced cardboard and thick paper, it is 100% recyclable.

The "Eco Board Bearing Set" is a roll packaging system that significantly reduces the weight of packaging materials. It has strong compression and bending strength, allowing for the safe transportation of delicate products while preventing damage and load collapse during transport. We offer a "U-shaped Bearing Set" that improves work efficiency by allowing the product shaft to be passed through from the top with a U-shaped hole design, and a "Vertical Roll Packaging Set" that allows for stacking. We contribute to environmental considerations under "SDGs" and to "White Logistics" through palletization! 【Features】 ■ No fumigation or disinfection required ■ 100% recyclable ■ Customizable design ■ Lightweight ■ Strong compression and bending strength ■ Suitable for high humidity conditions *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

• Packaging materials

Paper-made lifting rods that enhance efficiency and convenience when transporting heavy items. Being made of paper, they are very lightweight, and their soft cross-section minimizes the risk of damaging products! Custom designs are also possible.

"Eco Block" is a product that can enhance the efficiency and convenience of transporting heavy items. Made of paper, it is lightweight and easy to design to fit specific dimensions. When using "Rinoki," unlike wood, the height and strength are uniform, preventing the product from warping. Additionally, the cross-section is soft, making it less likely to damage the items, providing peace of mind. 【Features】 ■ No need for fumigation or disinfection ⇒ Fumigation treatment cost: 0 yen ■ 100% recyclable as it does not use nails or metal ■ Custom design ⇒ Original design improves loading efficiency ■ Strong compressive strength ■ Lightweight, improving work efficiency *For more details, please refer to the external link page or feel free to contact us.

We are pleased to announce that Gywood has been recommended as a featured building material in the special project "Recommended Building Materials" at the Housing Business Fair within the comprehensive exhibition for housing, architecture, and real estate [BREX Kansai]. We will be exhibiting in the "Recommended Building Materials and Equipment" zone, where professionals from the field gather to showcase their recommended materials. We invite everyone to stop by and visit us.

Seminar Overview As the labor shortage in manufacturing sites becomes more severe, the labor costs and time losses associated with the "transportation" of products and components, as well as "cleaning" within factories, have become critical management issues that cannot be overlooked. In this webinar, we will introduce the latest use cases of "Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMR)" and "Commercial Cleaning Robots" that achieve productivity improvements in manufacturing environments. We will specifically address questions such as "How are other companies operating these technologies?" and "What kind of cost reduction effects can be expected after implementation?" by providing concrete explanations of actual before-and-after scenarios and operational flows. Factory managers and members of production technology and DX promotion departments who want to advance automation and efficiency on-site are encouraged to participate! Recommended for: - Those who are unsure about where to start with automation, labor reduction, and DX in their factories. - Those who want to alleviate labor shortages on-site and focus resources on core operations to improve productivity. - Those who want to stay updated on the latest trends in the use of transportation robots (AMR) and cleaning robots.

Our representative, Koichi Yokoyama, will be speaking at an online seminar scheduled for November 27 (Friday). Participation is possible from anywhere in the country. We hope you will join us! 【Event Overview】 Date: November 27, 2026 (Friday) 13:00 - 15:05 (Deadline: November 25, 17:00) Venue: Online (Zoom) / Participation Fee: Free (Pre-registration required, lottery system) Organizer: Otsuka Shokai Co., Ltd. 【Session Details (14:05 - 14:35)】 "What Does Reliable Data Creation Mean? - Insights from Certified Public Accountants and Tax Accountants on Creating Trustworthy Data Before Relying on AI" We will discuss the quality and reliability of data that influences AI outcomes, covering points such as "Considerations for Practicing DX" and "Data Integrity and Authenticity" from the perspectives of certified public accountants and tax accountants, to lay the groundwork for safely utilizing AI. *Applications from competitors or similar industries may be declined. *Inquiries: Otsuka Shokai Co., Ltd.
