A bollard (vehicle stop) designed for counter-terrorism with a unique two-stage storage design that enables smooth operation and a shallow installation depth. It can be installed in locations with depth restrictions for excavation.

The SPTT high-security bollard is an automatic vehicle stop (bollard) designed for counter-terrorism. Its unique two-stage storage design achieves smooth operation while allowing for a shallow installation depth. While the typical installation depth for automatic bollards is around 1,500mm, this product can be installed at a depth of just 900mm. Thanks to its unique shallow foundation installation technology, it can be installed in locations where excavation depth is limited due to underground utilities. This product has undergone testing in accordance with the PAS68 standard, where a 7,500kg vehicle was crashed into it at a speed of 64 km/h, successfully preventing vehicle intrusion with an incursion of less than 1 meter. It can be installed at the shallowest depth in the high-security market for automatic bollards of the same level. This product is a hydraulic rising and falling vehicle stop. With a high number of ascents and descents per hour, it is suitable for installation in high-traffic areas. It can be used not only as part of a large-scale traffic management system but also as a standalone traffic management system. *For more detailed information, please visit the website of Sanoyasu Engineering Co., Ltd. or feel free to contact us.*

Recently, we held technical training sessions for the MilkoScan FT3 at five locations nationwide. In this training, we provided a wide range of useful information for operating the equipment, including explanations of the principles and structure of the device, how to create measurement products, daily maintenance, and how to respond to issues when they arise. Additionally, this year we introduced new methods for utilizing digital services (such as FossCalibrator and IQX) and also prepared hands-on sessions where participants could experience operating the equipment using a PC. Thank you to everyone who participated. Please feel free to contact us with any questions after the training. ------- At Foss Japan, in addition to training sessions and workshops to ensure you can use our equipment with confidence, we hold many events throughout the year. In seminars and open houses tailored to specific industries and analytical techniques, we showcase Foss's latest analytical solutions. -------

[Lecturers] EY Strategy and Consulting Co., Ltd. Infrastructure Advisory Partner Kenichiro Fukuda Strategy Partner Ken Fujiyama Infrastructure Advisory Director Takashi Matsumura [Key Lecture Content] The water supply and sewage business is facing structural challenges such as facility aging, a shortage of workforce, and a decrease in revenue due to population decline. The government is promoting the introduction of Water PPPs, regional consolidation, and the digital transformation of water supply and sewage systems, marking a significant turning point in the way these businesses are operated. This change is expanding business opportunities for private companies in various areas, including operation and maintenance, pipeline renewal, digital technology, and the utilization of smart meters and data. Additionally, as a means of expanding business domains and enhancing competitiveness, there has been an increase in capital and operational partnerships and M&A between companies, leading to industry restructuring. In this seminar, based on the latest trends in policy and the market, we will introduce business strategies for private companies to enter and expand in the water supply and sewage market, including the use of M&A and capital operational partnerships, drawing on achievements from both public and private support.
