From October 7th for three days, Oji Futech will be exhibiting at "Agriculture WEEK (commonly known as J-AGRI Tokyo Exhibition)" held at Makuhari Messe. Agriculture WEEK is an exhibition where agricultural materials, smart agriculture products, livestock materials, and more are showcased, facilitating active business negotiations between exhibiting companies and visitors. At Oji Futech's booth within the Agricultural Materials EXPO, we will introduce our paper-based agricultural mulch sheet, "OJI Sustainable Mulch." OJI Sustainable Mulch is a mulch sheet made primarily from cellulose. After use, it decomposes in the soil, which not only reduces waste disposal costs but also helps suppress soil temperature rise, leading to increased yields for summer and autumn crops. This is a great opportunity to see the actual product and receive a direct explanation of its features, so please stop by. We sincerely look forward to your visit!

Prince Imaging Media Co., Ltd. has developed a product called "Zureen," a non-slip paper designed for applications involving food contact. The non-slip paper "Zureen" features our unique anti-slip coating, which helps to reduce shifting caused by shaking or tilting when placed under items, thereby preventing cargo shifts during transportation. In this development, we have reviewed the raw materials, manufacturing processes, and quality control methods with an eye toward expanding its use in trays and sheets for transporting and serving food. The developed product uses raw materials that have been confirmed to comply with the positive list system for food contact utensils and packaging. Additionally, we have conducted material tests and elution tests as specified by the Food Sanitation Act, confirming compliance with standards under the prescribed testing conditions. Please note that for food contact applications, the necessary quality control conditions may vary based on customer requirements. Therefore, when selling, we will individually review our manufacturing and processing processes and quality control systems for each case, ensuring the supply of products with attention to safety and quality management.
