Announcement of Prince Kinokuro's participation in "N-Plus 2026" (November 11, 2026 (Wednesday) to November 13, 2026 (Friday))

It is a non-woven fabric material that can be processed through thermoforming, sewing, and welding, primarily made from cellulose and PLA. It has a gentle texture mainly derived from pulp.

"Kinari-to" is a plant-based sheet that can be heat-formed, sewn, and welded. It is made from wood, has a natural texture and gentle feel, and can combine wood fibers with various materials. - Certified with a 95% biomass mark. 【Features】 ≪Plastic-free≫ It does not use fossil resource-derived plastics and utilizes plant-based raw materials. ≪Biodegradable≫ The cellulose and biomass plastics used as raw materials are biodegradable. They can decompose under certain conditions and return to nature. ≪Possible to blend powders, etc.≫ It can incorporate functional powders such as deodorants, as well as unused biomass like tea leaves and coffee grounds. ≪Shape flexibility≫ It can be heat-pressed into various shapes using standard molding machines for resin sheets. Additionally, it is possible to create bag-shaped items through sewing or welding. ≪Other features≫ Provides cushioning and shock absorption through the airlaid method. Excellent breathability and moisture retention. Functional properties such as deodorization and moisture absorption can also be added.

It's pulp, but it doesn't absorb water!?

Remarkably, we have developed a water-repellent sound-absorbing material made of pulp non-woven fabric that completely floats on water and even rises when pressed down with a finger. This sound-absorbing material, characterized by its almost non-existent water absorption, is made from a porous material called "airlaid based on pulp." It is ideal for areas where water absorption is not acceptable. Specifically, it is suitable for sound-absorbing materials covering components that may condense or in environments with high humidity. Our manufacturing method uses pulp as the main raw material to create a porous structure with a high bulk and void ratio that absorbs sound. Among porous sound-absorbing materials, the surface of natural pulp not only has a special structure called microfibrils but also, due to its hollow structure, secures air layers within the fibers, which is expected to provide unique sound-absorbing effects different from other materials.

This is a material that is environmentally friendly and made primarily from natural pulp, designed to reduce plastic usage.

This is a bulky sheet made using pulp as the main raw material and a dry manufacturing method that does not use water. 【Features】 (1) Thick and has very high absorbency and water retention (2) Very large voids (easy for plant roots to take hold) (3) Suitable for shock absorption and scratch prevention during packaging (4) Can be disposed of as combustible waste 【Product Grades (3 types)】 (1) Biodegradable type (composed of biodegradable materials) (2) Hydrolyzable type (quickly hydrolyzes in water, meets various hydrolyzable standards) (3) Biodegradable and hydrolyzable type Customization is possible according to your needs, including thickness, density, weight (in pounds per unit area), coloring, and deodorizing properties. It can be widely used for agricultural materials, toilet cleaning sheets, cushioning and packaging materials, hygiene and cosmetic base materials (puffs), and more.

Connectors exist in very large numbers in the world. It is very difficult for customers to find connectors that match their specific applications from among them. The "Product Finder" on the ODU website serves as a tool to help find the right connector products. You can search for the optimal connector from various approaches, such as matching it to your cable, electrical specifications, waterproofing, etc. The connectors you search for will provide information on electrical specifications, durability, and also CAD data. In the online seminar, we will introduce how easy and quick it is to search for connectors using the "Product Finder" in a live format. ------------ Date and Time: November 19, 2026 (Thursday) 14:00 - 14:35 Venue: Online (A URL for the venue will be sent via email after you register) Speakers: Miho Kato, Sales Department, Kamex ONE Co., Ltd. Masaru Kimura, Sales Manager, ODU Japan Co., Ltd. ------------

KAI Group will be exhibiting at the "Advanced Materials Technology Exhibition 2026" held at Tokyo Big Sight. This exhibition widely introduces advanced materials and technologies in the industrial sector, covering everything from materials to their processing. It provides an essential venue for business discussions that are crucial for the development of new technologies and products in advanced fields. We plan to showcase industrial blades, cutters, and scissors with exceptional sharpness, leveraging the technology we have cultivated through our razor products. We sincerely look forward to your visit.

We will be exhibiting products that have undergone surface treatment through thermal spraying. Specifically, we will showcase products that have been ceramic thermally sprayed on metal rolls and aluminum alloy products that have undergone hard surface treatment. We provide a comprehensive service for thermal spraying repairs of parts that have lost thickness due to wear, surface modification of metal components, and other related machining processes. Exhibition Dates: November 11 (Wednesday) to 13 (Friday), 2026 - 3 days Opening Hours: 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM Venue: Tokyo Big Sight, East Hall 2

Kinoshita Corporation will exhibit at "N-Plus 2026," held at Tokyo Big Sight from November 11 (Wednesday) to 13 (Friday), as a member of the Japan Nonwoven Fabric Association's joint pavilion. In this exhibition, we will introduce a wide range of products, including the water-soluble and biodegradable nonwoven fabric "Haibios," themed "Returning to Paper," as well as the pulp nonwoven fabric "Kinari-to," which can be thermoformed. Additionally, we will have a mini sound absorption experience corner where you can actually test the differences in sound using our pulp-based sound-absorbing material "Otocell." We will showcase the various possibilities of our airlaid nonwoven fabrics through actual product displays and demonstrations. Please come and see our products and samples at the venue.

We will be exhibiting at the 46th Nano Testing Symposium (NANOTS2026) held at the Senri Life Science Center in Toyonaka City, Osaka Prefecture! Booth: Senri Room (6F) No. 28 We will be introducing our latest analytical technology services, so please stop by! We sincerely look forward to your visit.
