"Air-conditioned clothing/heat stroke measures/heat countermeasures" Obayashi Corporation has started the introduction of air-conditioned clothing as a measure against heat stroke.
Obayashi Corporation is a leading company in Japan's construction industry, involved in domestic and international construction projects, regional development, and urban development. The construction industry has a higher incidence of heatstroke accidents compared to other industries, and previous measures against heatstroke primarily focused on encouraging regular hydration and breaks. However, with rising temperatures due to global warming, the risk of heatstroke has increased, and the aging workforce has made heatstroke prevention urgent. In response, the company has adopted "air-conditioned workwear" for those who wish to enhance heatstroke prevention and improve work efficiency during the summer. Feedback indicates that these garments not only help prevent heatstroke but also mitigate declines in attention, concentration, and judgment.

basic information
"Voices from our partner company Matsumura-gumi" Shiono, the foreman from our partner company Matsumura-gumi, said, "Working in the scorching sun often drains our physical strength due to sunburn and sweating, but wearing air-conditioned clothing makes it harder to sweat, which has improved our work efficiency during the summer. I feel that it has also made it easier to manage our health. Starting this year, we have decided that all employees of Matsumura-gumi will wear them." *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

Company information
In 2002, we invented the world's first "air-conditioned clothing" and have been working on product improvements and development. Thanks to this, we have surpassed a cumulative sales total of 1 million units and have received recognition from many companies, including those in the manufacturing, construction, agriculture, and electrical contracting industries. Seft Research Institute Co., Ltd. (Product agent: Air-Conditioned Clothing Co., Ltd.) has recently been awarded the "Minister of the Environment Award for Global Warming Prevention Activities for Fiscal Year 2017" for our development and commercialization of fan-equipped work clothing, "air-conditioned clothing," which achieves energy-saving effects and CO2 reduction in heat countermeasures and is useful for preventing heatstroke. Moving forward, we will continue to promote technological innovation aimed at enhancing customer comfort and the safety and functionality of "air-conditioned clothing." "Air-conditioned clothing" is designed to keep you cool and comfortable by incorporating outside air into the clothing through two small fans installed around the waist, allowing sweat to evaporate and cool the body through evaporative cooling. It uses significantly less energy compared to air conditioning and is an environmentally friendly product.
