Comparison of moisture content in underfloor support timber
When the moisture content exceeds 20-25%, wood decay is more likely to occur.
We conducted an experiment on how completely dried wood is affected by the ventilation conditions under the floor in a test house. Initially, the moisture content rises as it absorbs moisture from under the floor, but in the case of having a "subfloor ventilation fan" installed, the moisture content of the posts stabilizes at around 20%, as shown in the graph in the image. It can be seen that the moisture content is about 5% lower compared to when there is no "subfloor ventilation fan." 【Test Overview】 <Comparison of Moisture Content in Subfloor Posts in the Test House> ■ Duration: May 24, 2003 - July 27, 2003 ■ Post Size: 105×400mm, measuring 3 posts, the graph shows the average moisture content of the 3 posts ■ Measuring Equipment: Sanko Electronic Research Institute Co., Ltd.

In an era of material shortages and rising material costs, what should we prioritize and protect?
Under the floor and in the attic... "Invisible spaces" are being reconsidered now The environment surrounding the housing industry has changed significantly in recent years. Rising timber prices, increased costs of equipment, a shortage of skilled workers, and prolonged delivery times are not temporary changes but are becoming entrenched as structural changes in the entire housing industry. Furthermore, in recent years, the global surge in resource prices, the depreciation of the yen, and rising logistics costs have compounded the situation, leading to a generally unstable environment for housing-related materials. What was once taken for granted—that "necessary materials can be obtained immediately when needed"—is no longer a given. Additionally, the construction and equipment industries continue to face a serious labor shortage. In particular, the aging of veteran craftsmen who support the field is progressing year by year, while securing young talent is not easy. As a result, situations such as difficulty in scheduling construction dates, longer waiting periods until construction, and limited availability of contractors in certain regions are increasingly common nationwide. In the housing industry, there is a growing sentiment that "construction plans cannot be made with the same sense as before," whether for new builds or renovations, which is becoming the norm across the country.

Remote live inspection service
■Live Inspection Start Our company conducts inspections to provide our clients with a deeper understanding of the effectiveness, safety, and installation information of the products they sell. This includes visits to our simulation studio, experimental laboratory, test house, and production line. By observing the visualization of product effects, safety tests, and durability test scenes, we have received feedback such as "I have gained a deeper knowledge of the products" and "I can confidently propose to end users." We are pleased to announce the launch of our 'Remote Live Inspection Service,' focusing on smoke simulation and security systems, which have been the main features of our inspections. Taking into account feedback such as "I am interested, but it's difficult to come to Fukuoka due to the distance" and "It's challenging to coordinate schedules for multiple people," the content will be a condensed version, but we will provide an interactive explanation similar to what you would experience in person. 【Flow of Remote Inspection】 ■ For underfloor ventilation... Approximately 30 minutes ■ For security... Approximately 20 minutes ■ Q&A... About 10 minutes

In the 21st century, the way human society exists on a global scale is being questioned. In this era of rapid change, what kind of aspirations should we have when engaging in business? SEIHO's new concept naturally emerged from such inquiries. "Compassion" is the new concept. Rather than pursuing extravagant ideas, we want to delve deeper into a simple concept that everyone can be confident in. We wish to return to our origins to realize this concept. In a time when a diverse array of information is overflowing, misjudging the clear distinction between "purpose" and "means" can render even effective technologies futile. SEIHO will firmly place "principles, fundamentals, and essence" as the axis of our management decisions, learning from the wisdom of past sages while creating genuine technologies and services that benefit society.
