We will be exhibiting at the European Coatings Show held from March 25 (Tuesday) to March 27 (Thursday), 2025.

We deliver added value through the surface treatment of aluminum paste!

We provide products with characteristics tailored to their intended uses by applying various surface treatments to aluminum paste. ■ Silica Coating - Gas Suppression… By applying a silica treatment to the surface of aluminum flakes, we prevent the reaction of aluminum flakes with water, which generates hydrogen gas. - Environmental Consideration… The silica treatment is compatible with water-based paints that have low organic solvent content. ■ Resin Coating - Chemical Resistance… Coating the surface of aluminum flakes with acrylic resin prevents reactions with acids and alkalis. - Adhesion… When untreated aluminum paste is used in plastic coatings or gravure printing, the paint film may peel off. However, by coating each aluminum flake with resin, we can improve adhesion to the target object. - Leak Resistance… During electrostatic painting, a high concentration of aluminum paste can cause current leakage, but the resin coating ensures insulation and prevents this. ■ Hybrid Technology These surface treatments can be combined. <Examples> - Silica Coating + Resin Coating - Silica Coating + Metal Coating + Silica Coating *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Luster, heat shielding and insulation! A metallic pigment that combines design and functionality.

"Alpaste" is a paste-like metallic pigment made from aluminum powder, processed into a flaky form. By incorporating it into paints and printing inks, it is possible to achieve a luxurious metallic luster. We offer two types: the leafing type, where aluminum flakes float on the surface of the coating and align parallel due to surface tension, and the non-leafing type, where aluminum flakes are uniformly dispersed within the coating. 【Features】 ■ Luster ■ Rust prevention ■ Heat insulation ■ Opacity *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Vivid metallic pigments with excellent saturation.

This is an aluminum pigment with an aluminum flake surface uniformly coated with colored pigments. It enables highly saturated and decorative metallic embellishments compared to simply mixing aluminum paste with colored pigments.

• Non-ferrous metals

Achieve vivid metallic paint with excellent saturation! Available in BLUE, RED, YELLOW, and GREEN.

"Friend Color" is a colored aluminum pigment that uniformly covers an aluminum flake surface with colored pigments. It enables high-saturation and highly decorative color metallic coatings compared to mixing aluminum paste with colored pigments. Additionally, the water-based types EMR-D946BA and EMR-D46GRA have a resin coating layer further covered with a silica layer, allowing compatibility with water-based paints. [Features] - All light that comes from the coating passes through the pigment and becomes colored light. - There are no colored pigment particles in the coating, resulting in less scattered light. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Supports environmentally friendly water-based paints! We offer a variety of particle size options in four colors.

"Friend Color" is a colored aluminum pigment that uniformly covers an aluminum flake surface with colored pigments. It enables high-saturation and highly decorative color metallic coatings compared to mixing aluminum paste with colored pigments. Additionally, the water-based types EMR-D946BA and EMR-D46GRA can accommodate environmentally friendly water-based paints by further covering the resin coating layer with a silica layer. 【Features】 ■ Since the colored pigments are uniformly adhered to the surface of each aluminum flake, a coating film with excellent gloss and saturation is obtained. ■ There are no colored pigment particles in the coating film, resulting in less scattered light. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

About ROAD: The "Roundtable on the Purpose of Autonomous Driving (ROAD)" conference series has evolved into a unique platform for interdis-ciplinary dialogue and international collaboration in the field of autonomous driving and autonomous mobility. Established in 2016, ROAD has brought together researchers, industry leaders, and public sector stakeholders from six countries across three continents. Based on this background, the upcoming ROAD 2026 will focus on "safety” and "driving AI”—the final pieces of the autonomous driving puzzle—to advance discussions on establishing the foundational framework for ensuring safety quality and obtaining regular-tory approval for autonomous driving. We also intend to discuss the international commonalities and differences regarding the social value brought about by ADS vehicles in terms of automation, intelligent driving, and mobility. We have established a total of five compelling themes for the Round Workshops, consisting of two topics related to “The Last Piece” and three topics related to the social value of ADS, as shown below. 1) Round Workshop 1 - Horizons of E2E Driving AI → Can AI Understand the Driving Environment Like Humans? 2) Round Workshop 2 - Beyond the Unknown: Safety Cases for ADS → Can Safety Ever Be Proven? 3) Round Workshop 3 - Envisioning Smart City Mobility → Can Smart City Mobility Bridge the Mobility Divide? 4) Round Workshop 4 - Logistics Enhancement Through Autonomous Tracking → Will Logistics Become Human-Free? 5) Round Workshop 5 - The Evolution of CASE: SDV/AIDV → Will Automakers Become AI Companies? We hope you’ll all join us!

[Speaker] Masashi Sugita, President and CEO of LEX Style Co., Ltd. [Key Lecture Content] The power consumption of AI servers used in data centers has significantly increased, making traditional air cooling insufficient for operation. This lecture will organize the requirements for introducing a liquid cooling system into air-cooled data centers and explain the implementation method using free cooling with specific design details. When handling high-density AI servers, energy efficiency is required, and the widely used energy efficiency indicator, as well as the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's Resource and Energy Agency's PUE regulation of "1.3 or below," will be explained along with practical operational insights. [Lecture Items] 1. Heat dissipation methods for high-density, high-heat AI servers 2. Basics and importance of PUE/pPUE 3. PUE regulation of "1.3 or below" by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry's Resource and Energy Agency 4. AI server implementation and requirements for new data centers 5. Summary and future outlook 6. Q&A / Business card exchange

[Instructor] Yuichiro Kabushiki, Partner Lawyer at TMI Comprehensive Law Office [Key Lecture Content] With the spread of AI, there is growing attention on the civil liability of developers, providers, and users of AI. The Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry will publish "Guidelines on the Interpretation and Application of Civil Liability in AI Utilization" in April 2026, and the Ministry of Justice will also establish an expert meeting to examine civil liability related to unauthorized use of images and voices generated by AI in the same month. As the full enforcement of the AI Promotion Act and the revision of AI guidelines are underway, it is necessary to design and operate governance based on the potential responsibilities that may arise retrospectively. In this seminar, based on the guidelines from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and drawing on litigation practice experience as a judge and lawyer, we will organize the basic framework for assessing civil liability and explain fundamental methods for designing and operating governance based on risk analysis. Furthermore, we will examine the framework for civil liability and the design and operation of governance using hypothetical cases that are likely to pose practical issues.

In this seminar, we will welcome Mr. Satoru Hayami from Waseda University, who will explain the latest trends in AI utilization in manufacturing, as well as the evolution of technologies such as agent-based AI and physical AI, and the opportunities and key points for practical application in the manufacturing industry. Furthermore, Mr. Tsubasa Shibata, representative of Next Opt, will introduce processes aimed at practical implementation, incorporating actual case studies from manufacturing sites. We hope you will envision the "potential for AI utilization in your company" and take home hints that will lead to improvements in your operations starting tomorrow. We look forward to your participation.
