北海道環境バイオセクター Company Profile

The components of starfish have been proven to have a wide range of effects, including repellent effects against birds (such as crows) and pests, as well as deodorizing and mold suppression effects.

After 30 years of researching starfish, an underutilized resource, we discovered that the extract (marine saponin) obtained through our unique biotechnology contains various benefits that can help improve our daily lives. Utilizing this extract, we have developed several products to date. ★ The first product we tackled was a deodorizer, followed by a repellent to keep crows away. Currently, products such as stickers and tapes are sold under the name "SARABA Karasu-kun" through retail and online shops. ★ We also commercialized the world's first crow-repellent paint, "Bird Colenger." This product is used in places like fish processing plants and precision machinery factories that suffer from bird strikes and droppings, effectively providing a repellent effect. ★ In 2023, we completed a solid soap called "SAVON." Its significant features include alleviating skin itching and mold, thanks to the benefits of marine saponin. This soap not only washes away dirt but also improves skin condition, allowing us to enter the industry.
