Japan is one of the top 10 countries in the world with frequent earthquakes. The 2020 White Paper on Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has also reported an increase in the probability of major earthquakes occurring. Regarding the Nankai Trough earthquake, the probability of an earthquake with a magnitude of 8 to 9 occurring within the next 30 years is estimated to be 70 to 80%. At Hotron, we recommend the introduction of seismic devices for earthquake countermeasures in buildings and equipment. The seismic device 'HK-2' is a product that automatically performs various controls that have been pre-set when it detects strong shaking equivalent to a seismic intensity of 5 lower or higher. For example, it can automatically execute actions such as: "Open automatic doors and gates to secure evacuation routes and access for emergency vehicles" "Transmit signals to the control room and stop facility equipment" "Unlock the keys to locked lockers" "Automatically play voice guidance" For more details, please download the materials or contact us.

Seven Corporation has begun research and development related to rust prevention, aiming to expand the functionality of the natural multifunctional aqueous solution "SEA'S 7." This research is being promoted as a collaborative study with the Industrial Technology Research Institute. In recent years, the manufacturing industry has been seeking technologies that balance environmental impact reduction and improved work safety, making rust prevention measures after cleaning a critical issue. This research includes corrosion evaluation using metal test pieces, measurement of weight changes, and durability tests in a circulating water environment, advancing the understanding of rust prevention mechanisms and performance evaluation. In the future, we aim to develop a next-generation SEA'S 7 that incorporates rust prevention functionality in addition to cleaning, disinfection, and deodorization, contributing to the efficiency of manufacturing processes and the reduction of environmental impact.
