[Case Study] Heiki Shipping Co., Ltd. <BCP Measures (Flooding and Power Outage)>

Tsunamis and salt damage unique to coastal areas caused by heavy rain and typhoons. Minimizing risks from a broad perspective.

We would like to introduce a case study of problem-solving at Heiki Kaiun, which has built the foundation of its business through harbor transportation and newly entered the hazardous materials warehouse industry. In September 2018, Typhoon No. 21 caused significant damage primarily in the Kinki region, with the high tide levels predicted by public agencies far exceeded at the newly established site. As a result, the company raised the ground level based not only on public agency data but also on actual damage. Although raising the ground level is costly, the company prioritized the safety of people and products and chose to raise the ground as high as possible. 【Case Overview】 ■ Issue: BCP measures (flooding, power outages) ■ Solution: Significant ground elevation / Installation of generators and cubicles in high indoor locations ■ Industry: Transportation and warehousing ■ Warehouse Type: Hazardous materials warehouse, general warehouse ■ Stored Items: Hazardous materials *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.
