Oji Applies Paper Temp Eco-Materials to Civil Engineering Fields

 

Oji Holdings Corp. (Tokyo, Japan) and Shimizu Corp. have jointly developed KAMIWAZA, a technology for improving the productivity of temporary construction using paper materials to contribute to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals.

KAMIWAZA is a solution that uses paper materials as temporary construction materials used in civil engineering. By using paper materials that are easy to handle as a substitute for the steel and wood materials conventionally used as temporary construction materials, the burden on workers can be reduced and the productivity of temporary construction will improve. The paper material mainly used as the temporary construction materials are HiPLE-ACE®(*1) of Oji Interpack co., Ltd. and Hatosheet(*2) of Oji Kinocloth Co., Ltd.
