In May 2023, a new Super Sol factory was established by Kyoto Tō Packing Transport Co., Ltd. in Kyotanba Town, Funai District, Kyoto Prefecture.

In March 2022, the newly established Kochi Prefecture Ino Town company, Kinzawa Construction Co., Ltd., had its glass bottle recycling material Super Sol certified under the "Kochi Prefecture Recycling Products Certification System," which has been implemented by Kochi Prefecture since fiscal year 2004. In Kochi Prefecture, the government certifies excellent "recycling products" manufactured and processed within the prefecture using recycled resources such as waste, as well as "environmentally friendly businesses" that have achieved outstanding results through environmentally conscious initiatives, and "eco shops" recognized for contributing to the formation of a circular society in the region.

Today, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry has established and revised Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS) (for July 2019) - Establishment and revision of JIS for glass foam recycling materials, guide symbols, etc. A press release was just distributed under the above title. We are pleased to report that the long-awaited certification of the JIS standards has been officially announced.

On June 10, 2019, we relocated our office from Fujisawa City, Kanagawa Prefecture to Mita, Minato-ku, Tokyo (a 5-minute walk from Tamachi Station on the JR Yamanote Line).
