Heat stress and heat stroke measures for factories and work sites [Windbreak Room Protect Eco Room]

The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare will strengthen the obligation for heatstroke measures with penalties starting from June 2025, in response to the increasing trend of heatstroke incidents in the workplace. Failure to implement or manage these measures may result in guidance, correction, or penalties under the Industrial Safety and Health Act. One effective measure against heatstroke is the installation of a windbreak room (Protect Eco Room). ■ Effects and Benefits 1. Blocks the intrusion of hot air from outside, improving air conditioning efficiency. 2. Enhances the cooling effect of break rooms and waiting areas by retaining cool air in air-conditioned spaces. 3. Can also be utilized as a temporary cooling space for emergency treatment. 4. By installing a windbreak room that partitions the space, air conditioning efficiency is increased, enabling heat and heatstroke measures while contributing to energy savings. 5. Maintaining a comfortable working environment is expected to improve work efficiency and productivity, and reduce mistakes. 6. By ensuring the health and safety of employees, a decrease and improvement in turnover rates is anticipated. ■ The Protect Eco Room is recommended for the following locations: Break rooms Entrances and exits of warehouses and logistics centers Loading and unloading areas of manufacturing plants Temporary waiting areas in production sites, etc.

Easy to assemble, the windbreak room can be installed simply by inserting the frames in order. By installing a windbreak room within the factory, the efficiency of air conditioning can be enhanced, allowing for measures against heat and heatstroke. Maintaining a comfortable working environment is expected to improve work efficiency and productivity, as well as reduce mistakes. It is anticipated to ensure the health and safety of employees, leading to a decrease and improvement in turnover rates. 【Main Features】 ● Energy-saving and power-saving effects Dividing the space with high-quality vinyl material reduces air conditioning costs and improves energy efficiency. ● Dust and wind prevention Prevents dust and wind from the outside, maintaining the environment within the booth. ● Splash prevention Prevents the spread of splashes to ensure safety and hygiene in the work area. ● Easy assembly without special tools (a Phillips screwdriver is required separately) With a unit structure of 800mm × 2100mm, sheets and panels can be replaced on a unit basis. ● Processing such as drilling is also possible The lower part of the side is made of plastic board, allowing for drilling holes for spot cooler outlets.

The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare will make heatstroke measures in the workplace mandatory for employers starting in June 2025 (Reiwa 7), with strict management and penalties. The measures apply to work conducted in environments where the "heat index" is 28 or higher, or where the temperature is 31 degrees Celsius or higher, for continuous periods of one hour or more, or four hours or more in a day. To protect workers in job sites and factories, installing windbreak rooms to partition spaces will enhance air conditioning efficiency and enable heat and heatstroke countermeasures. By maintaining a comfortable working environment, improvements in work efficiency and productivity, as well as reductions in errors, are expected. Ensuring the health and safety of employees is anticipated to lead to a decrease and improvement in turnover rates. 【Main Features】 ● Energy-saving and power-saving effects Partitioning spaces with high-quality vinyl materials reduces air conditioning costs and improves energy efficiency. ● Dust and wind prevention Prevents dust and wind from the outside, maintaining the environment within the booth. ● Prevention of droplet dispersion Prevents the dispersion of droplets to ensure safety and hygiene in the work area. ● Easy assembly without special tools (a Phillips screwdriver is required separately) With a unit structure of 800mm x 2100mm, sheets and panels can be replaced on a per-unit basis.

It is a windbreak room that can be easily assembled by simply inserting the frames in order. By installing a windbreak room within the factory, measures against heat and heatstroke can be implemented. Additionally, maintaining a comfortable working environment can be expected to improve work efficiency and productivity, as well as reduce work errors. It helps to ensure the health and safety of employees, which can lead to a decrease in turnover rates. 【Main Features】 ● Energy-saving and power-saving effects By partitioning the space with high-quality vinyl materials and design, it reduces air conditioning costs and improves energy efficiency. ● Dust and wind prevention It prevents dust and wind from the outside, maintaining the environment inside the booth. ● Prevention of droplet dispersion It prevents the dispersion of droplets to ensure safety and hygiene in the work area. ● Easy assembly without special tools (a Phillips screwdriver is required separately) The unit structure of 800mm x 2100mm allows for sheets and panels to be replaced on a per-unit basis. ● Processing such as drilling is also possible The lower part of the side is made of plastic board, allowing for the drilling of holes for spot cooler outlets.
