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.

Oji Kinokuro Co., Ltd. will exhibit at the 6th Sustainable Material Exhibition (SUSMA) held at Makuhari Messe from September 30 (Wednesday) to October 2 (Friday), 2026. Non-woven fabrics made primarily from wood fibers are being utilized in various fields as environmentally friendly materials. At our booth, we will showcase various applications of non-woven fabrics, including cooking paper, drip sheets for food trays, face masks, seedling sheets, wet wipes, liquid absorbents, and scraping sheets. We will also focus on the functions of non-woven fabrics made from wood fibers, such as "absorbing liquids," "absorbing gases," and "absorbing sound," and introduce the potential of non-woven fabrics for various applications. Additionally, we will display a soundproof booth that combines pulp-based sound-absorbing materials "Otocell" with reinforced cardboard. You will be able to experience the changes in sound environment brought about by sound-absorbing materials. Furthermore, Oji Holdings and Oji Fitec will also be exhibiting around our booth. In the Oji Group exhibition area, we will introduce products and initiatives that contribute to the realization of a sustainable society. We invite you to visit our booth.
