Lightweight, quick, easy, and convenient flood prevention product compared to sandbags: Folding flood barrier F-shield.

Mr. Yamamoto is responsible for the overall safety management operations of the company at the Safety and Environment Department of Special Spring Industry Co., Ltd. "There are first-class rivers, the Inagawa River and the Darokugawa River, flowing near our factory, and there is a risk of these rivers flooding when typhoons or linear precipitation zones occur. In fact, a major typhoon passed through Hyogo Prefecture in 2018, and at that time, the situation was very close to a river flood. Therefore, it was necessary to present a sufficient BCP (Business Continuity Plan) to our customer, the automobile manufacturer, in preparation for potential river flooding." "The foldable water stop board F-shield is lighter than sandbags, making it easy to transport and set up. Unlike sandbags, there is no need for the cumbersome task of filling or emptying water; it can be easily set up and taken down by simply locking the fittings." A new disaster prevention warehouse has been established right next to the factory's main gate, where the foldable water stop board F-shield is stored, ensuring that it can be set up immediately in case of an emergency. "I would like to win the trust of our customer, the automobile manufacturer, by presenting a sufficient BCP (Business Continuity Plan) in preparation for river flooding."

Lightweight, quick, easy, and convenient flood prevention product compared to sandbags: Folding flood barrier F-shield.

Mr. Kamiyama is involved in the management of two companies: Miyauchi Construction Co., Ltd., which is engaged in the construction industry, and Koshiki Fruit Garden Co., Ltd., which is involved in the production, processing, sales, and café operation of passion fruit. "The area around our company is at a low elevation, and due to the phenomenon known as 'abiki,' the road can become flooded as the sea level rises and falls repeatedly in a short time. Three years ago, for the first time, we piled sandbags in front of the fruit processing factory, but it was a very challenging task. The occurrence happened around 8 PM, and I had been drinking, so I couldn't drive the truck. Therefore, I asked a colleague to transport the sandbags stored in the fire department's warehouse by car. 'Abiki' can cause the water level to rise in about 30 minutes. I felt that there wouldn't be enough time to go and get the sandbags and stack them." "The foldable water barrier F-shield takes up little space when stored folded and can be set up quickly. It is lightweight, making it easy for elderly women working at our processing factory to handle, and it looks better than sandbags, so we can safely place it in visible areas. I want to be well-prepared for sudden 'abiki' with the foldable water barrier F-shield."

**Expert in Power Distribution Board Manufacturing: Takahashi Electric Co., Ltd.** Mr. Watanabe works in the General Affairs Department of Takahashi Electric Co., Ltd., which is responsible for the manufacturing of power distribution boards that are indispensable in modern social infrastructure. **Risk of Rainwater Intrusion into the Factory! Safety Measures and Risk Management at the Sheet Metal Factory** "At the entrance of our sheet metal factory, a small forest is encroaching, and during typhoons or heavy rain, there is a risk that rainwater will flow from the forest into the factory entrance. Since there are expensive equipment such as laser processing machines inside the factory, it was necessary to implement risk management to prevent rainwater from entering the factory entrance. We considered stockpiling sandbags, but they are heavy and deteriorate quickly, causing the contents to spill out. Therefore, we concluded that sandbags were insufficient as a safety measure for the factory." **Preparing for Flood Damage to the Factory with the Folding Water Stop Board F-shield** "The folding water stop board F-shield is easy to handle because it is foldable, allowing for timely storage and movement. Additionally, its bright yellow color enhances visibility, which is also appealing. I like that it is more durable compared to sandbags, making it user-friendly."

In summer construction sites, the surface temperature of the ground plates and the heat reflection can affect the working environment. In particular, steel plates tend to retain heat when exposed to sunlight, making it a challenge to implement heatstroke prevention measures and improve the site environment for workers. Hyper CLT ground plates are civil engineering materials that utilize wood CLT. As wooden ground plates, they can be used for temporary roads, access routes, heavy machinery work yards, material storage areas, and pedestrian pathways, serving as a versatile alternative to steel plates in various civil engineering sites. In actual sites, there are cases where the surface temperature can differ by about 20 degrees compared to steel plates, making them an easy-to-suggest material for reducing heat reflection and preventing heatstroke in summer. The 5×10 plate weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 plate weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, which also helps reduce construction burdens. Additionally, they feature noise reduction, environmental consideration, and CO2 fixation, which are unique to wood. As a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS "TH-250021-A," these ground plates are also easy to utilize for innovative ideas and safety measures in public works. Companies looking to improve summer site environments are encouraged to consider Hyper CLT ground plates.

We will propose the appropriate testers and devices for each inspection target. 【 Target Industries and Examples of Inspection Targets 】 - Automotive Industry: Engines, FC components, valves and piping, various parts - Electronic Components Industry: Smartphones, keyless switches, various small sensors - Pharmaceuticals / Food / Cosmetics Industry: Bottle containers, syringes, vials, eye drop containers, pillow packaging, PTP packaging We will propose the most suitable leak testers for each industry. 【 ISO Certification 】JIS Q 9001:2015 (ISO 9001:2015)

In civil engineering sites, there are many opportunities to use temporary roadways, access roads, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas with sheets. Until now, steel plates have been widely used, but there is a growing interest in temporary materials made from wood due to environmental considerations and CO2 reduction. Hyper CLT sheets are civil engineering CLT materials made from wood CLT. As wooden sheets, they can be used for mud prevention, ground protection, ensuring work pathways, and as a substitute for steel plates. The 5×10 sheet weighs about 230 kg, and the 5×20 sheet weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and reducing the burden of transportation, installation, and removal. Wood has the property of fixing CO2, and further improvements in transportation efficiency can be expected due to its lightweight nature. These materials also help improve the site environment by reducing glare and noise. In public works, they are easy to use as materials for environmental considerations, safety measures, and creative proposals, making them recommended for companies aiming to enhance site evaluations. Please consider them as a new sheet selection for civil engineering sites, registered as "TH-250021-A" in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's NETIS. We can provide proposals tailored to site conditions, from public works to private civil engineering projects.
