The retrofitted aluminum baseboard "fitbase," which is in collaboration with "Watanabe Pipe Original Luan Plywood Flooring - natic," has won the internationally prestigious "iF Design Award 2019."

While fulfilling the original function of a baseboard, it neatly finishes the walls of various spaces such as the living room, kitchen, and entrance, enhancing the beauty of the house itself.

■A presence that does not assert itself and the beauty of baseboards By pursuing the balance of form, it combines design that blends into any space, construction adaptability for various sites, and functionality as a baseboard that protects walls. ■Combining the baseboard body with a resin base After fixing the resin base to the wall, the baseboard body can be fitted from above, allowing for installation even in completed wall conditions such as during renovations. This is recommended for sites that albase has not been able to accommodate until now. ■Designed to accommodate all types of flooring The flooring, which serves as the face of the space, comes in various colors and shapes to create high-quality interiors. Traditionally, aluminum baseboards struggled with uneven floor surfaces, but this issue has been resolved by combining them with a resin base. The soft elastomer of the resin base absorbs the irregularities of the floor, resulting in a structure that is less susceptible to impact.

Despite its slight height of 12mm, which can be easily forgotten when viewing the entire room, the baseboard protects the walls from impacts from vacuum cleaners and other sources.

■Unobtrusive Design While traditional baseboards have adequately fulfilled their role of protecting walls, they have not received much attention in terms of design. The unobtrusive design that albase aims for beautifully enhances the walls in various spaces, such as living rooms and entryways. ■Construction Method for Natural Integration with Walls Unlike conventional baseboards, albase is fixed to the flooring before installing the plasterboard. After securing it, the plasterboard is placed on top of the albase. This method prevents the baseboard from floating above the floor.

The reason for standardizing the use of lauan plywood for flooring.

★Types of Flooring Base Materials - Lauan Plywood - Softwood Plywood - New Material Plywood - MDF/HDF - Particle Board Since the 2000s, with the development of emerging countries leading to soaring prices of base materials, it has become increasingly difficult to obtain traditional high-quality Lauan wood. As a result, domestic manufacturers have been advancing the development of alternative materials that prioritize cost, and floor base materials combined with MDF have become prevalent. However, many manufacturers' representatives unanimously state that the most optimal flooring base material, in terms of water resistance, strength, and flexibility, is "Lauan plywood." Therefore, aiming for the highest quality flooring, natic has adopted Lauan plywood as a standard, despite its rarity.

The Fukuoka area, along with the rest of Kyushu, faces serious risks of flooding and typhoons almost every year. In particular, August 2025 left significant flooding and landslide damage across various regions due to consecutive linear precipitation bands and Typhoon No. 12. When such unpredictable disasters occur, the loss of lifelines such as electricity can lead to catastrophic damage. To protect households and businesses from unforeseen circumstances, it is essential to prepare power sources as part of "Fukuoka Power Outage Measures." An effective solution is a system that can provide stable electricity even during disasters. Introducing storage batteries for disaster preparedness in Fukuoka is not only crucial for ensuring a safe living environment for households but also essential for business continuity planning (BCP measures using storage batteries) to keep corporate activities running. Securing emergency power sources at bases in Fukuoka for offices and factories is extremely important for business continuity. Shall we start preparing for disasters that can happen at any time? For inquiries about optimal capacity, installation space, and implementation costs, please feel free to contact our Fukuoka sales office. Our specialized staff will propose the best plan tailored to your needs.
