Provision of Medical Aprons to Yokote City, Akita Prefecture in Collaboration with Nui Tec Corporation

Nui Tec Corporation, a subsidiary of TACHI-S Co., Ltd., donated 1,300 medical aprons to Yokote City, Akita Prefecture on March 20, 2023.
This is the third year in a row that donations have been made in 2020 and 2021.
The mayor of Yokote City expressed his gratitude, saying, "I don't know when and when a disaster will occur. Thank you for your emergency stockpile."
Nui Tec has four production bases: Akita Plant, Yokote Plant, Nagoya Plant, and Nagano Plant. Medical aprons were manufactured at the Akita Plant using the experience cultivated in manufacturing seat covers for automobiles.
Taking advantage of know-how accumulated from the development and production of seats and using its own equipment, the TACHI-S Group will continue to collaborate with relevant parties to help prevent the spread of COVID19 and to assist healthcare workers.

Water Station at the 57th Ome Marathon

 The 57th Ome Marathon was held on February 16, 2025, and we participated in the water station volunteer activities. Approximately 40 members gathered, including new employees, executives, labor union members, and alumni.
 The activities are being carried out near Futamatao Station on the JR Ome Line, at an uphill stretch that is considered a difficult section of the 30km return leg.This year was blessed with clear skies and warmer temperatures than usual, so runners flooded the area during the peak hours, making it a very busy event.We received such happy words from the runners as “Thank you for another year!” There were also runners from TACHI-S, and they made all the members got very excited when they passed by the water station.  
 We have been doing this for more than 40 years, and we are proud to be involved in activities that support the fierce running of runners. We would like to continue supporting runners in the future.

TF-METAL Reuse industrial waste as fertilizer Implement initiatives

-Effective use of phosphoric acid solution generated in the production process-

TF-METAL Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of TACHI-S Co., Ltd., has officially registered the industrial waste generated in the production process at the Ryuyo Plant (Iwata City, Shizuoka Prefecture) as a by-product fertilizer with the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries.
From fiscal 2021, we have been implementing efforts to reuse industrial waste as fertilizer, but on September 12, 2022, we officially registered it as fertilizer under the fertilizer name "Plant (Koba) Blessing No. 1". I was able to do it.
In addition to reducing industrial waste, we believe that fertilizer will contribute to CO2 reduction by promoting plant growth.

Initiatives for local community activities and research of "Plant (Koba) Blessing No. 1"

  • Donation of fertilizer to neighboring municipalities and related organizations
    (Cooperation: Iwata City Hall, Shizuoka Prefectural University of Agriculture, Forestry and Environment (Iwata City, Shizuoka Prefecture))
  • Research on more efficient use of fertilizer
    (Rental of a petting flower bed at Hamanako Garden Park, maintenance of the flower bed, confirmation of fertilizer results, etc.)

The program link, which was introduced on TV, is as follows. (Link from SBS News)

Headquarters/Technical Monozukuri Center Donation of stockpiled food to food bank

On August 24, 2023, our head office / Technology / Monozukuri Center (Ome City) provided disaster stockpiled food to "Food Bank Akishima", a food support activity of "Aozora Minna Shokudo / Minna Cafe, a local children's cafeteria in Akishima City". Donated 600 meals of "Gomoku Rice".

This activity is carried out at the time of stockpile food replacement, and it was the second donation following the previous time (2018).(Donation in 2018: Second Harvest Japan) The representative of Minna Cafe said, "I will use the ingredients I received at the pantry (distribution meeting) held every Thursday." I received a word of appreciation.
Due to the high prices following the corona crisis, the number of people waiting for food support is increasing, and it seems that everyone at cafes is sharing foodstuffs that are near their expiration date as their own responsibility.
All the staff members are volunteers, "Connecting the friendly feelings of the community, aiming for a community that can participate in good things in society without any difficulty, and relying on nature, sharing is nothing special!" I am continuing my activities with the thought. Everyone, after listening to the story with a wonderful smile, I felt "welcome back.“

In the future, we will strive to support activities by utilizing disaster stockpiles other than food.
