Basic Knowledge of Smells: The Difference Between Deodorization and Odor Removal has been published.

The gas phytoncide deodorization system "Neutralization Deodorization" is a commercial deodorizer that can be installed without burdening air conditioning and exhaust systems. A thorough explanation of its features!

Phytoncide," which is generated from the leaves and trunks of trees and contains components for deodorization and mold prevention. Our company has developed a deodorization method called 'Neutralization Deodorization' that vaporizes this component and allows it to come into contact with odors. Thanks to the advantage of being in gas form, it has been recognized for eliminating concerns associated with liquid deodorants, such as "load on air conditioning systems" and "installation of auxiliary equipment," and is being adopted for odor control nationwide. 【Three Functions of 'Neutralization Deodorization'】 1. Odor substances and plant essential oils undergo a chemical reaction, transforming into odorless substances. 2. When odors and plant essential oils coexist in a certain ratio, the mixed odor becomes odorless or nearly odorless. 3. The unique fragrance of plant essential oils prevents the perception of any remaining odors. ★ Our company is currently offering free materials that explain the benefits of 'Neutralization Deodorization'!

We are pleased to announce the development of the vehicle passage time prediction system "MS-VPP," which measures the speed of vehicles approaching construction sites using microwave sensors and informs the predicted passage time through signage and tablets. This system will be available to construction contractors starting in November 2025. ■Product Overview - "MS-VPP" detects vehicles approaching construction sites and measures their speed using microwave sensors, displaying the vehicle speed and the predicted passage time at specified locations on signage and tablets. It can also measure and display data for vehicles passing continuously. - The data control panel connected to the microwave sensor transmits the vehicle speed data and calculated passage prediction time via LTE. By utilizing microwave sensors, it enables accurate detection and speed measurement of vehicles even at night or in bad weather, and since data processing occurs on the receiving side without going through the cloud, information can be displayed without any time lag. - As a result, drivers of construction vehicles exiting from construction entrances and workers directing traffic can understand "how many seconds until a vehicle passes near the site entrance," thereby implementing safety measures in areas with poor visibility.
