Suddenly
Evolved shoji.
"Kinari" is a specialty product from the eastern part of Tottori Prefecture, made using 100% Inshu washi paper in the Akari-na Contract, which allows 34.2% of visible light to enter through the entire blind. The slats, which utilize the texture of Inshu washi, spread a warm light throughout the room. It harmonizes not only with traditional Japanese rooms but also with modern interiors and office spaces. Since the slats are made of resin, they generate almost no radiant heat. It is recommended for windows that receive strong sunlight or when you want to create a calm atmosphere. It cuts 97.9% of harmful UV-A and UV-B rays that can cause sunburn and skin cancer. This helps prevent skin tanning and discoloration of interiors. *1 The light-filtering blind "Akari-na" is available in versions for corporations and individuals, differing in specifications, warranty content, and services. The corporate version is called AKARINA contract. *2 Test results from the Fukui Testing Center of the Japan Textile Products Quality Technology Center, July 2022.

1st Workplace Reform EXPO Spring 2025 (23rd Tokyo General Affairs, Human Resources, and Accounting Week)
In order to achieve a decarbonized society through GX (Green Transformation), companies are advancing various initiatives, including the utilization of renewable energy. Additionally, due to the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare's policy, it will become mandatory for businesses to implement heatstroke measures for workers starting in June. Particularly, areas near windows, which are easily affected by sunlight, are crucial points that influence the comfort and safety of workers. Akarina C is resistant to heat and simply by being installed on windows, it reduces heat. It improves air conditioning efficiency and reduces cooling costs. It transforms and diffuses harsh direct sunlight into soft light, also cutting down on lighting costs. Even when the slats are closed, it remains bright and ensures privacy. Made from soft materials, it is highly safe and prevents sunburn and fading of interiors with its UV-cut function. By creating a better working environment, it also contributes to increased employee satisfaction. Previously, we exhibited at the "Work Style Reform EXPO," but this time we have changed our exhibition area to the inaugural "Workplace Reform EXPO." In this new area focused on the working space itself, we will introduce the comfortable environment created by Akarina. While valuing people, goods, and the environment, we invite you to experience the appeal of Akarina, which also leads to reduced electricity costs, at the venue.
