Asbestos has many excellent properties. It is highly workable and economically advantageous, but the harmfulness of airborne fibers has become apparent.
Asbestos refers to a group of naturally occurring fibrous minerals, derived from the Greek word meaning "eternal and unquenchable." It is classified into six types, with the most commonly used being chrysotile (white asbestos), crocidolite (blue asbestos), and amosite (brown asbestos). Due to its hazardous properties that can cause health issues such as lung cancer and mesothelioma, asbestos was designated as a specific chemical substance in 1971, and the spraying of asbestos was banned in 1975. Furthermore, in Japan, the use of particularly harmful blue and brown asbestos was prohibited in April 1995. The amendment to the Enforcement Order of the Industrial Safety and Health Act, which came into effect on October 1, 2004, also imposed a complete ban on white asbestos. Although its use was allowed until 2006 for certain applications, all six types were fully banned in June 2008. However, the effectiveness of alternative products is lacking, and it is unclear how long it will take to achieve a complete transition.

Our company has developed a groundbreaking reaction terminator called "Hydro Proof," which completely addresses the weakness of free alkali through chemical reactions, creating permanent water resistance and corrosion resistance from a completely different perspective than conventional water-repellent and waterproof agents for concrete. Hydro Proof has been adopted in a wide variety of sites, including many new construction projects, renovation works, and restoration of historical cultural properties, and we take pride in being able to offer higher performance compared to traditional methods, including cost and construction time.
