We have a long history of supplying products to protect and improve the environment: activated carbon for cleansing and purification, wood care products for termite control and wood protection, and industrial preservatives against bacteria and fungi in production processes.
We also endeavor to develop specialty products for environmental protection by combining the expertise gained from our existing product lines with Japan EnviroChemicals's technology resources in biology and chemistry.
Activated Carbon
Activated Carbon Contributes to Ecology.
Activated carbon, as material to improve deteriorated living condition from industrialization and urbanization and to ensure well-being, is utilized in a wide variety of fields. As a familiar application, you can find it in cigarette filters and water purifier. Industrial field includes food and drug manufacturing, chemical industry and others; on a global level, water quality improvement and prevention of air pollution are notable examples. The demand of activated carbon is ever growing as our lifestyle has recently become affluent and convenient.
Over 70 years since 1936, when we imported the production technology from Germany, Japan EnviroChemicals has rolled out numerous activated carbons, under the brand name of SHIRASAGI, gaining trust and acclaim for technological excellence, quality and performance.
MOLSIEVON for gas separation and high-purity nitrogen separation and concentration from air, is high performance carbon, the superbness of our technology, with the largest annual production capacity in the world. Granulated SHIRASAGI-G series has through the ages been used for deodorizing purposes. The latest product called Granulated SHIRASAGI-GM2x is designed to remove malodorous substances at a time with a single layer. We have a wide assortment of products with distinctive features such as SHIRASAGI DO series for dioxin containing exhaust gas treatment and Spherical SHIRASAGI DX7-3 for effluent treatment.
In addition to sophisticated adsorption technology to unfailingly separate target trace components, our strength is technical service to select the most appropriate carbon and determine the necessary amount in consideration of operating life, adsorption scale, target substance to be removed, and facility condition. We strive to offer extremely precise service taking full advantage of accumulated technical knowhow from untiring research and development and of a wealth of customer supports.
We practice procurement of raw material all the way to release of finished product to ensure stable production and supply. We provide for escalating raw material shortage by means of availing ourselves of our overseas production base, investigating unexplored sources in an Asian bloc, and forming an alliance with other suppliers. We achieve unimpeded supply of products through securing broad-based sales channels.
We will proactively work on a recycle system to regenerate used carbon for the purpose of nourishing a safer, cleaner environment while continuing unflinching innovation.
Wood Preservatives
We Protect Wood. We Protect Life.
Wood preservatives comprise two groups of products. One is a special paint for protection and beautification of timber buildings against ultraviolet rays, the elements, and insect damages. Another is a termite control product for conservation of wooden architecture.
XYLADECOR, a wood care paint, protects timber from within because active ingredients exerting antiseptic, antifungal, and insecticidal efficacy, absorb into wood surface. Weather resistant pigments minimize the impact of ultraviolet rays, winds, and rains, thereby maintaining the beauty of wood surface. That is to say, Xyladecor protects wood from inside and outside, drawing forth the inherent beauty and concurrently improving durability. The paint does not form any coating film, which allows a natural finish of wood grain pattern and texture, accentuating the beauty of wood surface. Furthermore, handling and maintenance are virtually effortless.
Termite control products requires assured and sustainable efficacy for extermination and prevention of highly fertile harmful insects. Ensuring safety, however, is equally necessary. XYLAMON and TAKELOCK are formulated with an active ingredient from neonicotinoid series: clothianidin, which is, despite its efficacy, practically harmless to humans and environment. Clothianidine is enclosed in a microcapsule, according to application, to prolong the effectiveness for an extended period of time. FIRST GUARD is another trademark of products based on capric acid for its chief component, which is a natural extract from palm or coconut oil. We have a nationwide network of termite control operators, with broad experience and technical skill.
Wood has been used through the ages as a building material of choice, befitting the Japanese climate. It also brings us a sense of healing and satisfies our aesthetic feeling. This wonderful ligneous material, however, is subject to decay and termite damage. To overcome these weaknesses and to promote effective use of the precious resource for our pleasant living is nothing but a harmonious coexistence between human and nature.
