A new type of antibacterial sheet that is used wet! The antibacterial component is derived from scallop shells, making it safe for contact with food and dishes.

This sheet is made from 100% natural material derived from scallop shells and exhibits excellent antibacterial and disinfecting effects when in contact with moisture. Its effectiveness is demonstrated even when wet with water or the moisture from food. The antibacterial component is the same as that used in food additives made from calcined shells. ◆ Diverse antibacterial effects! When in contact with moisture, it becomes alkaline and is effective against microorganisms. A wide range of antibacterial effects has been confirmed, from everyday bacteria to mold and viruses! It is effective even with the moisture from food (can be used directly without wetting). *This does not guarantee effectiveness against all viruses and bacteria. *The effectiveness may vary depending on the type and condition of the food. ◆ Excellent storage properties! This is a lightweight sheet that can be stored for a long time! ◆ Odorless and non-chlorine! Made from natural ingredients and non-chlorine components, it requires no wiping and has no odor! ◆ Deodorizing effect as well! Deodorizing effects have also been confirmed.

They can decompose under certain conditions and return to nature. ≪Possible to blend powders, etc.≫ It can incorporate functional powders such as deodorants or unused biomass like tea leaves and coffee grounds. ≪Shape flexibility≫ Various shapes can be heat-pressed using standard molding machines for resin sheets. It is also possible to create bag-shaped items through sewing or welding. ≪Other features≫ Provides cushioning and shock absorption through the airlaid method. Excellent breathability and moisture retention. Functional properties such as deodorization and moisture absorption can also be added. For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

Even when absorbed and swollen, it is difficult for the shape to collapse. The TDS method, which does not use water, allows SAF to be made into sheets!

This is a highly absorbent sheet with excellent water absorption performance. It has moisture absorption and desorption capabilities. Since it contains high absorbent fibers (SAF), there is no shedding of powders or similar materials. It is also possible to laminate other materials on both sides. Mixing powders or similar substances into the middle layer is also possible.

In the unlikely event of a hole, the absorbent sheet catches and absorbs the leaking water, swelling to seal the hole for peace of mind. It plays a significant role as the absorbent layer of a self-repairing waterproof sheet!

The self-repairing waterproof sheet for leak prevention can be utilized as the absorption layer of a self-repairing waterproof sheet. If only the waterproof layer is used, any damage that causes a hole can lead to leakage. However, the high water-absorbent resin (fiber) blended into the sheet absorbs water and swells to seal the hole, preventing leakage. It can be used in waterproof civil engineering works such as final disposal sites, agricultural reservoirs, river embankments, and retention basins. As an absorption layer for the self-repairing waterproof sheet, it is common to have a bentonite layer sandwiched between the non-woven fabric of the surface material and the backing material. The disadvantage is that the sheet is very heavy, requiring large machinery for installation. Comparison with bentonite-based sheets: ◆ Work is made easier! A significant weight reduction of 25% improves workability! Large machinery is unnecessary, and the lightweight nature makes handling easier. ◆ Work efficiency is improved! The roll length is up to about five times longer, enhancing workability! The sheet is flexible and easy to handle, and the significantly increased roll length improves work efficiency. Features of the self-repairing waterproof sheet for leak prevention: - It has excellent waterproofing properties. - Even if sharp objects penetrate the sheet, it self-repairs and is less likely to leak. - It is lightweight and has excellent workability.

Utilizing the unique roughness of thick fibers for dirt removal, it scrapes off stubbornly adhered dirt!

This is a cleaning sheet that can be used in various places such as the kitchen and bathroom. The thick fibers effectively scrape off stubborn dirt and water stains. It has a two-layer structure: a scraping layer that removes dirt and an absorbent layer that securely holds liquid when using detergent. It is also possible to incorporate powdered cleaning agents into the sheet. The scraping layer contains fibers that are several times thicker than our general-purpose fibers. In addition to the hardness of the thick fibers, the air-laid manufacturing method raises the fibers on the surface of the sheet, creating a rough texture that helps to scrape off dirt. Furthermore, our manufacturing method allows for the incorporation of powders during production, enabling the blending of various functional powders. For example, it is possible to incorporate powdered cleaning agents such as citric acid, baking soda, and sodium sesquicarbonate. Please feel free to contact us.

Decarbonization is currently shifting its positioning from "cost management" to "enhancing competitiveness," and we are entering an era where mere regulatory compliance is no longer sufficient. With the strengthening of sustainability labeling regulations and the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), the environmental value of products has transcended corporate responsibility and become a crucial element in market competition. On the other hand, many companies are facing challenges such as: - The complexity of CFP calculation and environmental labeling requirements makes it difficult to know how to proceed. - How to balance regulatory compliance with enhancing competitiveness (differentiation). - Difficulty in prioritizing ISCC certification and CBAM compliance. In this seminar, we will invite Wastebox Co., Ltd., which has extensive consulting experience in the environmental field, to introduce ideas and specific examples on how to connect responses to decarbonization and the circular economy to business growth from both "offensive" and "defensive" perspectives. ■ Part 1: "Understanding the Environmental Value of Products from Offensive and Defensive Perspectives: How to Leverage Decarbonization and the Circular Economy for Differentiation and Regulatory Compliance" ■ Part 2: "Why Are We Entering an Era of Product Environmental Value Now? (Tentative Title)" ■ Part 3: "Introduction of Services Supporting the Reliability of Product Environmental Value"

In this webinar, we will clearly explain the latest trends in IATF 16949 certification and the key points of Rules 6th Edition from the perspective of auditors, directly relating to practical applications.

In the food industry, as the importance of ensuring quality and safety continues to rise, there is a growing demand for understanding international food safety standards and appropriately responding to the latest requirements. In FSSC 22000 Ver. 7, aspects such as "food safety culture," "risk-based thinking," "unannounced audits," and "supplier management" have been strengthened, making corporate responses crucial. In this webinar, Mr. Hiroshi Ideta, Regional Representative for Japan and Korea at the FSSC Foundation, will explain the latest trends in domestic and international food safety standards and the trends of certified companies. Bureau Veritas will introduce the key points of the FSSC 22000 Ver. 7 revision. If you are considering how to respond to the standard revision or want to understand the latest trends, please join us. ■ Part 1: "Domestic and International Trends Surrounding Food Safety Standards and Trends of FSSC 22000 Certified Organizations" 　　　　Mr. Hiroshi Ideta, Regional Representative for Japan and Korea, FSSC Foundation ■ Part 2: "Explanation of Key Points of FSSC 22000 Ver. 7 Revision" 　　　　Bureau Veritas Japan Co., Ltd., System Certification Business Division, Technical Department 　　　　ISO/FSSC22000 Auditor, Koichi Mukai
