Notice of Participation in the 'High-Performance Building Materials and Housing Equipment EXPO' from December 11 (Wednesday) to December 13 (Friday), 2024.

Shutting out heat with high electromagnetic wave reflection of aluminum! It demonstrates high heat insulation effectiveness!

This is a heat-insulating aluminum pigment (flake type) that utilizes the high electromagnetic wave reflection of metallic aluminum. It effectively reflects in the near-infrared region, suppressing temperature increases in buildings and enclosures due to its heat insulation effect. It is effective for energy conservation and environmental improvement! 【Features】 - High reflectivity… High reflection across a wide wavelength range. It reflects most of the light and thermal energy. - Low thermal absorption… Efficiently dissipates heat, preventing heat from accumulating on the surface. - High hiding power… Strong ability to cover the substrate, allowing effectiveness even with a small amount. - Wide range of applications… Usable in a variety of applications such as paints, printing, and compounding.

A paint that incorporates high-quality stainless steel (SUS316L) into resin, achieving high durability and corrosion resistance.

Our company, which has been developing and manufacturing aluminum-related products for over 90 years, is leveraging its accumulated know-how to engage in unprecedented product development that transcends the boundaries of aluminum manufacturing. The high-durability coating "Stenshell" utilizes our aluminum processing technology to process stainless steel material into flake form. By combining stainless steel, which is resistant to sea salt particles, ultraviolet (reflection), scratches, wear, and tensile stress, with resin, we can continuously protect the material from various factors. Given the current social issue of aging domestic infrastructure, we invite you to consider solutions for maintenance, repair cost reduction, and longevity for the next generation. "Stenshell" is also registered in the new technology information provision system "NETIS" (registration number KKK-170005). * "Stenshell" is a registered trademark of Toyo Aluminum.

Protects important items from rust and salt damage. Metallic stainless flakes for anti-corrosion paint.

High-quality SUS316 has been processed into a flake form for use in paints and inks. The labyrinth effect protects your valuable items from harmful substances and light. By incorporating it into paints, hardness increases, achieving levels of 4H and 5H, and it exhibits excellent sliding properties. It provides a rich metallic tone characteristic of stainless steel materials. It demonstrates maintenance-free effects in areas that are difficult to repair or in locations close to the coast, where high rust resistance is required. We can provide it not only in flake form but also as "Stenshell," which is in a paint state.

This is a maintenance-free paint that uses high-quality stainless steel flakes, featuring high rust resistance and high film strength.

High-quality stainless steel flakes (SUS316L) are processed into flakes using our technology. These flakes are then blended into resin using our unique know-how to create a coating. The high corrosion resistance of stainless steel extends the lifespan of the coated objects and contributes to maintenance-free performance. Additionally, by layering the flakes, we achieve a high coating hardness of 4H or 5H (in the case of baked coatings). Our coatings can be used in various situations, including painting on manufacturing lines, spraying, and brush application. In addition to the rich metallic color of stainless steel itself, we offer a variety of color options.

Enables a heavy-duty finish that protects the substrate - Stainless Steel (SUS) Flake

This is a high-performance pigment made from high-quality stainless steel (SUS316L) that has been flaked, offering excellent toughness and chemical resistance. By adding it to paints, it protects the painted surfaces from corrosion and prevents aging deterioration. Additionally, its superior durability and wear resistance can reduce the frequency and number of repainting. Furthermore, the deep color unique to stainless steel flakes has also been well-received for decorative applications. 【Features】 - Weather resistance - Saltwater resistance - Chemical resistance - Rust prevention - Wear resistance 【Search Keywords】 #RustPreventiveCoating #StainlessSteelPaint #StainlessSteelCoating #MaintenanceFree #HeavyMetallicFeel

[Speaker] Ayaka Motomura, Consultant, Business Transformation Unit, NTT Data Management Research Institute [Key Lecture Content] With the advancement of Physical AI, telecommunications carriers have the opportunity to evolve from being "companies that provide lines" to companies that connect and control AI and the physical world in real-time. This seminar will organize the changes in communication demand brought about by Physical AI and the business opportunities for telecommunications carriers, while explaining the role of AIOps as the first step towards entry. Furthermore, it will discuss strategies for monetizing in the Physical AI market by deploying the operational intelligence accumulated through AIOps to network APIs and industry-specific services, as well as the layers that telecommunications carriers should hold. [Lecture Topics] Chapter 1: The Competitive Structure of the "Real World" Rewritten by Physical AI Chapter 2: Reasons Why Opportunities for "Reversal" Arise for Telecommunications Carriers in the Era of Physical AI Chapter 3: The First Step Towards Physical AI Chapter 4: Shifting AIOps from "Defense" to "Offense" Chapter 5: The Layers to Hold in the Era of Physical AI [Q&A / Business Card Exchange]

[Instructor] Partner Ryoji Mori, Eichi Law Office [Key Lecture Content] This lecture will explain the revised Personal Information Protection Act of 2028. The three-year review this time is a major revision, and it is essential to first understand where and how the revisions have been made, as well as the overall picture of the amendments. Next, we will explain the individual amendments that are practically important. The key points are as follows, but it is important to note that both the strengthening and relaxation of obligations are occurring simultaneously, increasing overall complexity. At the time of the lecture, it is expected that subordinate laws and guidelines will not yet be published, but we will discuss points that require attention upon publication. We will distinguish between what is necessary across businesses and what varies by industry. [Lecture Items] 1. Expansion of consent exceptions: Relaxation of the difficulty of obtaining consent and expansion of academic research institutions 2. Statistical exceptions: System content and how to read complex provisions (plus learning about acceptability from controversies) 3. Strengthening regulations on biometric information and children's information: Caution required for age verification 4. Contactable personal-related information: Changes in external transmission responses 5. Review of outsourcing regulations: Addition and removal of obligations for contractors 6. Administrative fines: Narrow target range and low amounts (not worth fearing) 7. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Instructor] Innovation Analyst Andy Kondo [Key Lecture Content] *The latest content will be added (changed) as appropriate based on the on-site survey of IAA Transportation 2026.* From September 15 to 20, 2026, the largest commercial vehicle exhibition in Europe, IAA Transportation, will be held in Hanover, Germany. It is a gathering place for manufacturers of commercial vehicles such as trucks and buses, as well as the parts, energy, and software that support them, occurring every two years. The cost structure of logistics, urban transportation and the environment, energy transition, decarbonization efforts, and a microcosm of the industry will reveal the future business environment just a step ahead. In this seminar, an innovation analyst who has been observing major global exhibitions such as CES and Hannover Messe for many years will report shortly after the event based on on-site coverage. Has autonomous driving become the main focus in commercial vehicles? Where is the energy transition for large vehicles settling in terms of batteries, hydrogen, and alternative fuels? How far have Chinese companies come? Based on photos taken at the venue and observations of actual products, the seminar will delve into the implications for Japanese companies.
