Starting from April 1, 2019, the application range of Chichibu Chemical products will be changed in accordance with the new technology guidelines for technical evaluation and certification by the Public Interest Incorporated Association for Rainwater Storage and Infiltration Technology. For more details, please check our official website.

We have released a new standard model "New Trench-kun II," which has been redesigned in accordance with the new technical guidelines of the Public Interest Incorporated Association for Rainwater Retention and Infiltration Technology (the product dimensions remain unchanged). "New Trench-kun II" has the following improvements compared to the conventional model: - Compliance with the new technical guidelines of the Public Interest Incorporated Association for Rainwater Retention and Infiltration Technology - Improved connection pieces for easier assembly - Elimination of transfer pipe ribs, allowing for internal inspection of the tank using an inspection camera.

Chichibu Chemical's "New Pura-kun" was featured in the "Trend Tamago" segment of TV Tokyo's "World Business Satellite" broadcast on May 28 (Monday).

The General Incorporated Association of Architectural Equipment Comprehensive Association hosts the "Environmental and Equipment Design Award," which recognizes and awards outstanding "Environmental and Equipment Design" to ensure accurate and objective evaluations of environmental and equipment design are widely published and recognized in society. Our company, New Trench-kun, won an award in the "Section 1: Equipment Fixtures and System Design Category," which targets designs that excel in aesthetics and functionality for versatile equipment fixtures, equipment devices, and equipment systems, during the "14th Environmental and Equipment Design Award Second Screening" held on April 15, 2016.

We are pleased to inform you that New Trench-kun has been registered in the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's new technology information provision system 'NETIS'.

Chichibu Chemical has obtained "Technical Evaluation Certification" from the Public Interest Incorporated Association for Rainwater Storage and Infiltration Technology for the New Trench Method and the Pradam Method. We would like to inform you that the certification for the Pradam Method has been renewed as of April 1, 2014.

We have developed an underground plastic rainwater storage tank called "Plas Pool," which has been on sale since 2012. Being underground, it does not take up space and can be installed in various locations such as residential gardens and small-scale community disaster prevention centers. It also ensures seismic resistance level 2 (equivalent to the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake), allowing for safe use during emergencies. With a large capacity that can support a family of four for one month (calculated based on 40 liters per person per day), it can be used for watering plants and other daily activities to easily conserve water, while also securing valuable domestic water in emergencies. For more details, please feel free to contact our sales department. *In May 2012, we exhibited at the "2012 New Environmental Exhibition" (Tokyo Big Sight). We sincerely thank everyone who visited us during the event.
