Termite damage can occur even in brick and concrete, and can happen in the upper floors of buildings.
"I didn't know... the damage caused by termites!" Termites, which prefer warm and humid environments, are causing damage as far as Hokkaido. This is due to global warming, the promotion of insulation and airtight construction of buildings, and issues with on-site construction. These omnivorous insects form robust colonies and sometimes chew through bricks and concrete; recently, damage has also been confirmed in the upper floors of apartments. "Perform Guard" is a termite-resistant insulation material made using a technology developed by AFM that uniformly incorporates a harmless inorganic compound (boron-based). Its termite resistance lasts semi-permanently, and since there is no natural decomposition of its components, it does not cause soil contamination or harm the global environment. It is a product that does not fall under the regulations for sick house measures, does not emit harmful substances like formaldehyde, and is considerate of health and the environment. *If you would like a sample, please contact us with "Request for cut sample" noted. *For more details, please contact us or download the PDF.
