Decarbonization Resource Utilization Project / Promotion of Circular Economy / TBM Inc.
What are the initiatives of pioneering companies promoting the circular economy?
We had the opportunity to interview Mr. Kunihiro Sahara, President and CEO of TBM Co., Ltd., who has introduced our products. TBM Co., Ltd. is a unique company specializing in the "decarbonization and resource utilization" of "unused food waste." Their corporate mission is to contribute to the creation of a decarbonized society by developing and providing resource utilization technologies and services. During our discussion on promoting the circular economy, they also shared insights on their technological collaboration with industria. TBM's pioneering efforts in creating a circular society make their business highly attractive. We encourage you to take a look. ■ TBM Co., Ltd. ■ A unique company that develops and provides technologies and services for maximizing the decarbonization and resource utilization of unused food waste (drainage oils, food loss, and residual sludge). They continue to innovate with the fundamental philosophy of "Simple is the Best" in technology development, challenging the creation of a resource-circulating decarbonized society. Business activities include the development of new technologies and services related to the decarbonization and resource utilization of unused food waste, as well as the establishment of resource circulation systems.
basic information
■Issue: In order to realize a sustainable society, the promotion of "decarbonization" and "circular economy" is an urgent challenge across all industries, and decarbonization environmental technologies are evolving daily. As the only company engaged in the "decarbonization resource utilization" business of "unused food waste" such as wastewater fats and food loss, the company aimed for new breakthroughs through technological collaboration with other environmental technology companies to further innovate its unique and cutting-edge decarbonization resource utilization technology. ■Reason for choosing FILSTAR: The fundamental philosophy of the company's technology development is "Simple is the best." FILSTAR, which performs high-precision filtration solely through the flow of water, perfectly aligns with this philosophy. Simplicity means "there are infinite possibilities." Therefore, it has the potential to be utilized in various processes of decarbonization resource utilization, such as fat recovery, fuel production, and power generation. Additionally, human trust is also important in technological collaboration. "The simplicity of FILSTAR and the high technical and human capabilities of the industria members were decisive factors for the introduction," said President Sahara of the company.
