Navias Kanto, which improves the logistics environment, has purchased six new trucks for its transportation subsidiary due to the expansion of its business scale, enabling more timely deliveries.

Response to Wood Shock: Reinforced cardboard 'Naviace' is used to create the reinforced cardboard pallet 'Navipallet'! ★ Completely produced in-house domestically for assured quality ★

【Common Challenges for Customers】 - Due to the wood shock, there is a shortage of wood materials, resulting in the inability to receive packaging materials such as wooden boxes and wooden pallets, which prevents product shipments. - There is a need to comply with decarbonization, CO2 reduction, carbon neutrality, SDGs, and Scope 3. 【Solutions to the Challenges】 ★ Wooden pallets → Cardboard pallets ★ Wooden boxes → All cardboard heavy-duty packaging *We have extensive experience in design contests and are well-versed in the necessary know-how. This catalog addresses customer requests such as: ◆ Four-way entry ◆ Desire to use electric foot-operated forklifts ◆ Aim to create high-strength pallets that can be reused to some extent ◆ Concerns due to past experiences where foot beams (supports) detached from other companies' cardboard pallets. This is a case study of cardboard pallets (Navi Pallet) that resolves these customer requests. It serves as a reference for the introduction of cardboard pallets, so please download for more detailed information.

As society increasingly moves towards environmental protection, customs duties on the import of plastic containers have begun in Spain.

Starting from January 2023, a tax on disposable plastic containers has been implemented in Spain, which is now applicable at the time of import customs clearance. In response to this, it is expected that the global trend towards "reducing plastic" will intensify. ▲ Bubble wrap ▲ Expanded polystyrene ▲ Plastic pallets ▲ Plastic cardboard ▲ Plastic containers etc. For companies engaged in exports, this presents an opportunity to reconsider packaging methods. ◆ Fixing products with cardboard → Eliminates the need for bubble wrap and expanded polystyrene ◆ Cardboard pallet "Navi Pallet" → If the Navi Pallet has sufficient adhesive strength and bending strength, it can replace plastic pallets with cardboard ◆ Reinforced cardboard "Navi Ace" → Can be processed like regular cardboard, enabling the realization of plastic-free cases with reinforced cardboard ↓↓ If you are interested, please download the PDF below ↓↓

In civil engineering sites such as mountainous areas and construction sites, it may be necessary to use wooden boards on slopes or inclined access roads. Hyper CLT boards are civil engineering materials utilizing wood CLT, which can be laid not only on flat ground but also on sloped terrain. They can be used for temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery entry paths, and measures against muddy conditions, creating a driving environment that takes advantage of the unique surface characteristics of wood. The 5×10 board weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 board weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to install and remove even with small machinery, which is a notable feature for maneuverability in narrow sites. This wooden board is registered as a technology under the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS system as "TH-250021-A," and can also be utilized for safety measures and innovative ideas in public works.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Repairs using conventional welding methods can alter the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" or "secondary damage." Hinode Waterworks Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material with heat. Repairs can be performed even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.

● The production time for cast prototypes can be shortened! Since model making is not required, the production time for prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! Different products, such as similar shapes or varying dimensions, can be molded at the same time in one molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.
