Soil Contamination Countermeasures Part 1 [Environmental Measures VOL.9]

We will explain the importance of soil contamination measures and appropriate countermeasures in two parts.

Modern companies are increasingly required to fulfill stricter regulations and social responsibilities from the perspective of environmental protection. Among these, "soil contamination measures" are particularly noteworthy. Soil contamination is often caused by corporate activities and not only leads to health hazards and environmental destruction but also poses a significant risk to the company's credibility. This document will explain the importance of soil contamination measures and appropriate responses in two parts. In Part 1, we will provide basic knowledge about soil contamination and details of the Soil Contamination Countermeasures Act. By responding swiftly to soil contamination issues, it is possible to mitigate environmental risks and achieve sustainable management. We sincerely hope that you will contribute to environmental protection while fulfilling your social responsibilities as a company.

Liquid leakage accidents are about twice as common as fire accidents. This explains the quick response methods when a liquid leakage accident occurs and points to reduce such accidents.

In the year 2023, there were 243 fire incidents and 482 incidents related to hazardous materials. While the number of injuries from liquid leakage incidents is not high, the risks posed to companies are significant. It is difficult to completely prevent accidents from occurring, but it is possible to reduce the occurrence of accidents by implementing preventive measures and strategies. A.M. Products, which has been selling absorbents for many years, has extensive knowledge and expertise regarding liquid leakage incidents. This time, we will utilize that experience to explain the key points for measures against liquid leakage incidents.

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.

The "Hotron Non-Contact Switch" allows you to open and close doors without directly touching door knobs or switches, making it hygienic! You can choose from two types: the "Hand Wave Sensor," which only requires you to wave your hand, and the "Foot Switch," which only requires you to place your foot in front of it. It reduces the risk of virus and bacteria transmission in places where hygiene is a concern, such as food factories, restaurants, hospitals, and nursing facilities. 【Features】 ○ Reduces the risk of virus transmission by allowing door operation without contact ○ A wide variety of options to choose from based on application and location ○ Ideal for places where hygiene is a priority, such as food factories and medical facilities ○ Prevents unnecessary detection due to the switch mechanism 【Product Lineup】 ■ Hand Wave Sensor Series ○ Exposed waterproof type, front, down, and side-facing type "PF-R5" ○ Exposed type, front-facing type "PF-R1" ○ Embedded type, front-facing type "PF-U2" ○ Exposed type, downward wide type "PF-R4" ■ Foot Switch Series ○ Slim type with wide opening, vertical beam type "PF-01S" ○ Slim type with wide opening, horizontal beam type "PF-03S" ○ Standard type, horizontal beam type "PF-05" ◎ For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

In recent years, with the outbreak of infectious diseases, there has been a demand for products that cater to "contactless operation," and this trend has extended to environments where automatic doors were previously operated by touch switches. As the automation of doors and the non-contact operation of automatic doors become more widespread, do you have any of the following concerns? ☑ Although automatic doors have been installed, they remain open due to people crossing frequently in busy areas. ☑ Touch switches have been introduced to reduce unnecessary openings and closings, but hygiene is a concern. ☑ Touch switches require regular battery replacements since they are powered. The light beam touch sensor "HA-T401" opens and closes automatic doors without contact, and its compact detection range makes it suitable for narrow passages and busy areas, contributing to energy savings and infection control. 【Benefits of Implementation】 ○ Adaptable to various door types with four spot settings, ideal for busy roads and narrow passages. ○ Energy-saving effects with two setting modes that reduce unnecessary openings and closings of automatic doors. ○ Equipped with a light beam touch function, allowing doors to open and close simply by waving a hand, ensuring hygiene. ◎ For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

An article has been published about the case of introducing the expense reimbursement system "Rakuraku Seisan" at TSP Corporation. ~ In the case of TSP ~ Before the introduction, there were challenges such as dealing with the "paper" sent from various locations and the reliance on specific individuals for the tasks. After the introduction, the input and checking of FB data, which used to take 2 to 3 hours, can now be completed in just 5 minutes. Additionally, the mindset of the accounting department, which was previously reliant on manual entry, has changed. [Case Overview] ■ Challenges before introduction - Dealing with "paper" sent from various locations, reliance on specific individuals ■ Key points of introduction - A robust support system for setup and operation - Easy to start from a small scale both financially and functionally *For more details, please refer to the related links or feel free to contact us.
