Unexpected Uses of Styrofoam for Insulation and Buffering Purposes [Presentation of Case Studies]
We will solve your problems with expanded polystyrene! We will introduce unexpected developed products and applications that utilize the characteristics of cushioning materials and the diversity of shapes.
At Toho Industry, we have been working on development and product commercialization based on our own developed mold technology to meet the diverse needs of our customers. There are various ways to utilize expanded polystyrene that are surprisingly not well known, and we solve our customers' problems in line with their needs based on our experience and knowledge! To pursue stable quality and improved safety of expanded polystyrene, we quantify strength and cooling performance, conduct various tests, and propose products suitable for your requests based on the results. Examples include side strength tests, bottom strength tests, cooling performance tests, and transportation vibration tests. 【Example of products developed】 ◆ Koi transportation container 《Challenge》 During the summer, the outside temperature is high, and there were no containers that could respond to temperature changes, limiting the timing and quantity of transport. 《Solution》 The insulation of expanded polystyrene stabilizes the water temperature inside the container, allowing for overseas exports throughout the year, and the shape prevents shifting, ensuring safety even when stacked. *For more details, please contact us or refer to our 【case study collection】.

basic information
We are committed to daily development and productization to ensure our customers' peace of mind during transportation and to guarantee the quality of the products inside the boxes. 【Example of a solution】 ◆Special container for asparagus 《Issue》Decreased freshness due to airtight sealing during transportation, and rubbing or breaking of the tips due to vibrations. 《Solution》Moisture and ethylene gas are appropriately released through gaps in the movable parts of the lid, improving freshness retention. The movable part of the lid firmly holds the tips, reducing rubbing and breaking caused by vibrations. *For more details, please contact us or refer to the [Prototype Case Collection].
