Customer Interview: The New Standard for Termite Prevention in Housing Introduced by DominoZone

Realization of 10-year effectiveness: A termite prevention method compatible with insulated homes, air cycle homes, and low-floor homes.

With the promotion of ZEH (Net Zero Energy House), the use of foundation insulation methods is becoming widespread. The foundation insulation method considers the space under the floor as part of the living area, making the application of chemicals under the floor inappropriate. Additionally, with the spread of slab foundation methods, there may be owners who hesitate to apply chemicals in the underfloor space. We provide various termite prevention methods tailored to different housing structures (slab foundations, spaces that cannot be accessed under the floor, no pedestrian access), uses (stores, apartments, multi-family housing), and resident circumstances (those who do not want chemicals applied, chemical sensitivity), as well as durability specifications. We respond to various inquiries regarding termite prevention for "custom homes" from construction companies, design offices, and builders. 【Q&A】 ■Q. Can termites be prevented by only applying chemicals around the exterior? 　A. If it is a slab foundation structure, treatment can be handled with exterior application only. ■Q. Is it safe for people sensitive to chemicals? 　A. Since chemicals are not applied under the floor and the treated areas are covered, there is no contact with the chemicals. Additionally, unpleasant odors from under the floor do not flow into the living areas. For inquiries, requests for materials, or follow-up after catalog downloads, our company’s agents will contact you.

"Agenda SC" is a termite soil treatment agent with excellent control efficacy, achieving a high domino effect of fipronil at low concentrations and low dosages.

Fipronil is hardly soluble in water and has a strong adsorption force with soil particles, making it difficult to leach out and providing stable effects. It can eliminate termite nests through a domino effect (propagation effect). Additionally, substances that correspond to indoor concentration guideline values and TVOC provisional target values are not used. 【Agenda SC Features】 ■ Low concentration and low dosage - Significant effects can be achieved with a small amount of use. ■ Mild odor and extremely low volatility - Difficult to evaporate, so effects last for a long time. ■ Long residual efficacy - Hardly soluble in water and has a strong adsorption force with soil particles, making it difficult to leach out. Certification from the Japan Wood Preservation Association and certification from the Japan Termite Control Association are publicly available. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. Inquiries, material requests, and follow-up communications after catalog downloads will be handled by our agent, Kodama Shokai Co., Ltd.

10-year effectiveness, termite prevention corresponding to basic insulation and air cycle housing, etc.

In residential asset protection, termite damage is a serious issue. Particularly with the promotion of ZEH (Net Zero Energy House), construction methods such as foundation insulation and housing structures with limited crawl space may not be suitable for traditional pesticide application under the floor. Additionally, consideration for residents sensitive to chemicals is also important. Our company offers the "DominoZone" method, which forms a pesticide treatment layer around the building's perimeter, addressing the diverse housing structures and resident circumstances to protect your valuable home. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Foundation-insulated homes, air cycle homes, low-floor homes - Homes with structures that do not allow access to the crawl space - Homes without pedestrian entrances - Slab foundation homes - Apartments, multi-family housing - Individuals who do not want pesticides applied or are sensitive to chemicals 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Forms a pesticide treatment layer around the building's perimeter to suppress termite intrusion - Reduces impact on residents by not applying pesticides under the floor - Compatible with various housing structures - Durable specifications with an expected 10-year effect - Licensing system to maintain reliable construction quality

Realizing a 10-year effect: A termite control method that can be applied to insulated homes, air cycle homes, low-floor homes, and more.

We provide various termite prevention methods tailored to different housing structures (such as slab foundations, areas that cannot be accessed from below, and those without human access), uses (stores, apartments, multi-family housing), and resident circumstances (those who do not want chemicals applied, chemically sensitive individuals). We respond to various inquiries regarding termite prevention for "custom homes" from construction companies, design offices, and builders. With the promotion of ZEH (Net Zero Energy House), foundation insulation methods are becoming widespread. Foundation insulation considers the crawl space as part of the living area, making chemical application in the crawl space unsuitable. Additionally, with the establishment of foundation insulation methods and the diversification of foundation structures (such as slab-on-grade and SRC foundations), there may be owners who hesitate to apply chemicals in the crawl space. Furthermore, we have established a licensing system for pest control contractors to maintain reliable construction quality! 【Q&A】 ■Q. Can termites be prevented with treatment only around the exterior? 　A. If it is a slab foundation structure, treatment around the exterior can be sufficient. ■Q. Is it safe for people sensitive to chemicals? 　A. Since we do not apply chemicals in the crawl space and cover the treated areas, there is no contact with the chemicals. Additionally, unpleasant odors from the crawl space do not enter the living areas.

On September 30, 2026 (Wednesday) from 14:00 to 15:00, we will hold an online seminar titled "MajiSemi." With the advancement of equipment functionality, there has been an increase in PLCs, motion controllers, and dedicated controllers, leading to challenges such as larger control panels, more complex wiring, and increased development and maintenance man-hours. This seminar will explain "PC-based control" as an option to address these challenges. We will introduce how real-time control is possible on a PC with the real-time OS "INtime," and what control functions can be consolidated onto a PC. Additionally, we will explain Contec's new industrial PC optimized for INtime. ■ Recommended for: - Those who feel challenged by the increasing complexity of equipment configurations due to the rise of PLCs and dedicated controllers. - Those interested in PC-based control but unsure about the mechanisms and implementation methods. - Those who want to learn how to utilize PCs for equipment control and about industrial PCs suitable for equipment control. - Those considering consolidating control functions and reviewing control architecture for next-generation equipment. ★ This content can only be heard here! ★ https://majisemi.com/e/c/contec-20260930/M2B

The AI visual inspection platform "DeepAge Sensor" has added a multi-stage fine-tuning feature. Models created through fine-tuning can be designated as the base model for subsequent additional training. By simply uploading additional images collected on-site, the model can be updated without retraining from scratch, and it can be stacked up to five times within the same lineage. The request list allows you to check the generation and lineage (source of derivation). Additionally, the verification tool "Sensor AD" has been enhanced with a score graph to select the decision threshold.
