G&ECO has won the "Grand Prize" at the "Japan Resilience Award 2025"!

Experience support for the disaster-stricken areas of the Noto Peninsula earthquake! Prepare for disasters with an excellent emergency power source that can use both LP gas and gasoline as stockpiled fuel. [Comprehensive catalog available now]

ELSONA is a generator that can use both LP gas and gasoline, born from the experience of the Great East Japan Earthquake. In response to the Noto Peninsula Earthquake that occurred on January 1, 2024, we conducted support activities in collaboration with local governments, including donating 14 units of the generator "GD1600SR" to Suzu City and Noto Town. On-site, we witnessed situations where gasoline-powered generators were available but gasoline was difficult to obtain, rendering them inoperable, and although LP gas was available as a decentralized energy source, there were no compatible generators. This reaffirmed the advantages of having a generator that can use both fuels. In August 2024, the "Nankai Trough Earthquake Emergency Information" was announced, and we have received many inquiries. If you are considering our products, please contact us as soon as possible. ■GD1600SR Rated Output: LP Gas 1.53kVA, Gasoline 1.7kVA ■GD5000SR Rated Output: LP Gas 4.5kVA, Gasoline 5.0kVA ■T-7500 Rated Output: Maximum 7.0kVA (50Hz), Maximum 7.5kVA (60Hz) *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

All employees are certified disaster prevention specialists delivering disaster prevention information!

"Disaster Prevention by G&ECO" is a disaster prevention column written by employees of G&ECO Co., Ltd. All employees are certified disaster prevention specialists who provide disaster prevention information. 　／　Theme of the 24th installment　／ 2024 Reflection Report! Experiencing the reliability of "LP gas" at disaster sites! While reflecting on past disasters, □ Preparing electricity so that we are not troubled if a disaster occurs tomorrow □ The reliability of "LP gas" at disaster sites is summarized. Immediately after the Noto Peninsula earthquake, G&ECO headed to the disaster area and donated 14 units of the generator "ELSONA GD1600SR," which can use both LP gas and gasoline. During our support activities in the affected area, we realized that compared to "gasoline," which is difficult to obtain due to purchase restrictions, "LP gas" is more accessible as it can be used from home gas cylinders or cylinders supplied by local governments, making it a resilient energy source in disasters. *For more details on the column, please refer to the related links.

The Hino Smart Cabinet provided by Nichinichi Shimizu Machinery Co., Ltd. is a material management solution that allows for the management of factory tools and consumables like a vending machine. This system automates inventory management and ordering processes, preventing the risk of production stoppages due to stockouts and significantly reducing the burden of inventory tasks. The cabinet comes in various types, such as drawer-type and spiral-type, allowing for the proper storage of drills, measuring instruments, protective gear, and more according to their intended use. Furthermore, the history management function through user authentication accurately tracks "who took out what and when," contributing to loss prevention and cost reduction. Operating 24/7 with no maintenance required, it is introduced as an efficient tool to promote the digital transformation (DX) of factories.

In civil engineering sites, there are many instances where temporary roads, access routes, material storage areas, and pedestrian pathways use plywood. Hyper CLT plywood is a civil engineering material that utilizes wood CLT and can be used as a substitute for steel plates in a wide range of civil engineering sites. Since it can be purchased in small lots, it is easy to introduce it only in necessary areas, such as parts of the site, heavy machinery entrances, and pedestrian pathways. This allows for the adoption of the material without a large investment while confirming the usability and effectiveness of wooden plywood. The 5×10 panel weighs about 230 kg, and the 5×20 panel weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, which helps reduce the burden of transportation, installation, and removal. The unique properties of wood help suppress glare, reduce noise, and promote environmental considerations, making it suitable for creative innovations in public works. Additionally, by replacing only a part of the site with wooden plywood, it can also enhance the landscape and the company's image. It is recommended as a new plywood selection for civil engineering sites, registered as a Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS technology "TH-250021-A." The appeal also lies in the ability to start small and consider full-scale implementation while observing the effects. We can flexibly respond to inquiries about the number of units sold and usage locations. We also accept requests for materials and consultations for implementation. Individual proposals tailored to site conditions are also possible.

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Repairs using conventional welding methods often change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which constantly carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "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 at all. Repairs can be carried out even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized.

● The production time for casting prototypes can be shortened! Since model production is not required, the time needed to create 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 variations in dimensions, can be molded at the same time in a single molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.
