◆Yoshida SKT Co., Ltd.◆ NEW "What is corrosion protection? An explanation of methods to enhance corrosion resistance" has been released.

Is it enough to prevent just one element of corrosion for corrosion protection?

Corrosion prevention refers to methods used to prevent corrosion. Metal corrosion is a state in which the appearance and function of an object are compromised due to chemical and biological actions. Iron is generally cited as a metal material that is prone to corrosion. These metals can undergo rust and corrosion as a result of factors that cause corrosion, such as oxygen, sulfur, nitrogen, and water vapor present in the atmosphere, combined with the inherent properties of the metal, impurities, and electrochemical reactions. ■ The three main elements of corrosion: - The flow of electricity - The presence of water - The presence of oxides To enhance corrosion resistance, it is important to prevent one of these three elements. ■ Corrosion prevention using Teflon fluoropolymer Teflon fluoropolymer is widely used as a corrosion-resistant material due to its exceptional chemical resistance among resins. This is not only because of its excellent chemical resistance but also due to its insulating properties, water repellency, and weather resistance. Additionally, advancements in processing technology have made it possible to select materials and shapes suited to specific applications. *For details on coatings and linings that enhance corrosion resistance, please download the materials for confirmation.

The applications of Hyper CLT sheets are not limited to specific locations. Essentially, many civil engineering sites that have previously used steel plates are candidates for consideration. Wood CLT can be utilized in various places such as temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, material yards, storage areas, temporary parking lots, and worker pathways. Of course, there are cases where steel plates are more suitable depending on site conditions, such as in areas with heavy loads or where heavy machinery needs to turn. The important thing is not to replace everything, but to use them appropriately according to the ground conditions, machinery, and intended use. Hyper CLT sheets are lightweight, easy to install and remove, and have unique characteristics of wood, such as reducing glare and metallic sounds, and fixing CO2. Furthermore, it is a **registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS "TH-250021-A."** By utilizing wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT, it provides a new option for places that have previously used steel plates.

Event Date: October 7 (Wednesday) to October 9 (Friday), 2026 Time: 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM Venue: Intex Osaka Our company will be exhibiting at the 29th Monozukuri World Design and Manufacturing Solutions Exhibition, which will be held at Intex Osaka from October 7 (Wednesday) to October 9 (Friday), 2026. At the venue, we will showcase the upgraded "ReMacs Hybrid," as well as the eagerly awaited production management system for the precast concrete industry, "ReMacs TypePca," which will be unveiled for the first time following its release at the end of May! We will also display various solutions, including the newly equipped "AI Drawing Search System" with OCR functionality! We sincerely look forward to your visit.

In civil engineering sites, it is important to clearly communicate not only safety and workability but also "what kind of initiatives the site is undertaking." Hyper CLT mats are civil engineering mats that utilize wood CLT. They look significantly different from conventional steel plates, so when laid at site entrances, viewing routes, or material yards, they create a strong visual impact. In particular, during inspections by clients, site tours, and public open days for local residents, the use of wood, environmental considerations, and the application of new technologies can be conveyed in a "visible form." Additionally, they are lightweight and easy to install and remove, and they offer practical benefits such as reducing glare and metal noise, as well as CO2 fixation. Hyper CLT mats are registered with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS as "TH-250021-A." They combine wood, NETIS, civil engineering, and CLT, making them a new temporary material that can impressively convey the initiatives of the site.

Hotron Inc. has launched its new product, the "Vehicle Count Sensor CCS3"! This product is a ceiling-mounted sensor that combines infrared and radar technology. It reliably detects vehicles in both directions with a single unit, accommodating traffic during congestion and vehicle passing, thus achieving efficient occupancy management in large parking lots. Additionally, it can be utilized for exit warning purposes in addition to vehicle counting, contributing to the safe and smooth operation of parking facilities. 'Features' - Improved detection performance against changes in road surface during rainy weather by using both infrared and radar. - Equipped with IP67 waterproof and dustproof performance, making it effective even in salt damage areas. - Various settings can be configured from a dedicated app (for Android devices), with current settings easily understandable at a glance. - The base dimensions are the same as the previous model "CCS2," allowing for smooth replacement of existing equipment. *For more details, please refer to the product information, catalog download, or contact us.*
