Shintec Hozumi Co., Ltd. has installed the "UV Irradiation Package Next-Generation Concept Model" as a participating product in the "Yamanashi Prefecture Green Zone International Evaluation Standard Development Demonstration Project," which will be held at Tokiwa Hotel (Address: 2-5-21 Yumura, Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture; Representative Director: Kenji Sasamoto) starting September 17, 2021. This demonstration project, organized by Yamanashi Prefecture (Governor: Kotaro Nagasaki), aims to create a business environment that is resilient to infectious diseases under the theme of "Providing Safety and Trust Across Yamanashi." It seeks to institutionalize the "Yamanashi Green Zone Certification," a certification system designed to enhance user confidence and trust, and to further advance the development of international evaluation standards. This initiative is a significant effort to transition from traditional infection prevention measures to "internationally applicable infection prevention measures." The demonstration project is supervised and operated by the Japan Accommodation Related Association (JARC), which has been commissioned by Yamanashi Prefecture. ◆ Introduction of Our Product The "UV Irradiation Package Next-Generation Concept Model" supports the creation of safe and secure spaces. By conducting irradiation while in motion, it efficiently disinfects. It uses ultraviolet light (UV-C waves) that does not affect the human body, which has a low biological permeability.
