All industries are looking for new materials to replace plastic. The group companies of the trading company ITOCHU focused on “cardboard” and “paper.” With the amazing technology of small and medium-sized enterprises, we will closely adhere to efforts to reborn as miscellaneous goods and furniture. ◆ “Cardboard” becomes the savior of plastic removal! ?? What I noticed was that major trading company … “Corrugated cardboard” is increasing due to the recent demand for nesting. It is said to be an eco-friendly student with a recycling rate of 95%, but it has the weakness of being weak and weak against water, so it is difficult to divert it to other things. Meanwhile, in the Olympic Village of the Tokyo Olympics and Paralympics, a bed made of durable cardboard attracted worldwide attention. “Reinforced corrugated cardboard” that overcomes the weaknesses of the past can be expected to be used in various ways as a substitute for plastic. It was the major trading company “Itochu” group that took notice. In fact, ITOCHU is one of the world’s leading companies in terms of plastic handling volume. Koji Shimizu of “Itochu Retail Link”, which handles daily necessities and household goods, started to develop and brand products that use corrugated cardboard and paper materials instead of plastic. Mr. Shimizu assembled “Nippon Kako Equipment”, which has a factory in Kanagawa Prefecture. For many years, we have been making corrugated cardboard, which is more than twice as strong as normal, and paper material called “square paper tube,” which is as hard as wood and can withstand the weight of a car. And another company is “Kyushu Cardboard” in Fukuoka Prefecture. In addition to manufacturing reinforced cardboard, we are also good at fine processing. However, both companies have so far been able to utilize the technology only as packaging materials and boxes. In response to Mr. Shimizu’s request, we started making actual products with the two companies. We will develop light, strong, and eco-friendly furniture and miscellaneous goods using reinforced cardboard and paper materials. Some products match the times of the Corona disaster. What kind of things will be completed and what kind of evaluation will be received? You can see the main part of this program on TV Tokyo BIZ.
