I attended a study session held by Hauseco, a manufacturer of ventilation hardware.
As we mentioned before, the president of Hauseco, a leading manufacturer of ventilation hardware, visited us.
On the occasion, we were invited to "come and tour the factory!!"

Today was the day I decided to schedule it for the day.
Since the president himself was going to be there to personally guide and explain things, we asked about 10 people to join us.
They came together, and it was a very interesting group of people.

The most amazing product from Hauseco is, as I mentioned in my previous blog,
This is a metal fitting called Antares Mini that is used at the top of a balcony.

There are several similar products, but this product is superior to the competition in terms of waterproofness, breathability, and ease of application.
It's safe to say it's overwhelming.
Also, during the site visit today, I noticed that a building with no eaves was able to achieve both waterproofing and ventilation.
I was also very surprised by the metal fittings. These will be unveiled in the new catalogue in November.
The company has about 90 employees and ships 5000 different types of parts, totaling 1200 million pieces, per year.
It's an incredible amount of work, but it involves drilling complex holes in sheet metal about 0.35 mm thick,
They process the glass by bending it, and even ship it to each residence individually for each property.
The average unit price for parts is about 300 yen, so at one point Chinese companies were also involved,
Apparently, most people have withdrawn from the business as it was too much hassle and the profits were so slim.
Today, he is the only Japanese person in Germany who has obtained the qualifications for roofing and sheet metal master.
Mr. Iwamoto also came. To be honest, the roof has not leaked rain for a long time and there is no internal condensation.
To achieve this, Germany is much more advanced in terms of details, such as insulation and energy efficiency.
Even in the eyes of Mr. Iwamoto, who has achieved such excellent results in Germany, Hauseco's hardware
It was said to be extremely well made.
We were shown the actual experimental building and wind storm experiment equipment, and all of the metal parts were
There are rigorous tests being conducted. Unfortunately, most manufacturers have not done this.
It seems that they don't have the equipment or they haven't done all the experiments.
This is a very painful accident for housing professionals.
In order to ensure that the moisture inside can be properly removed, we need to make something like Hauseco.
It would really help if you could do that.
What struck me most about the tour today was how even the most inconspicuous and unassuming parts, such as the drains and ventilation hardware,
We stock 5,000 different product numbers, pursue fine detail in quality, and even deliver to each residence.
I think Japan is the only country in the world that can perform this feat.
It has been a long time since Japan lost its vitality, but these kinds of things have accumulated to the point where Japan has become overwhelmingly powerful in the world.
I really felt that the brand's power was growing.
If you are reading this blog today and any of the following apply to you, then you are Hauseko's
I believe that specifying metal fittings can dramatically reduce the risk of leaks.
・Design balconies well (especially roof balconies).
・Many lower buildings
・Many buildings have no eaves or roof ridges
・Many roofs are made of vertical galva joints or shingled roof tiles (especially those with gentle slopes)
・Many exterior walls are made of mortar
In such cases, other companies' products are difficult to meet or are overwhelmingly superior to other companies' products.
There are metal fixtures available. Please consider using them.
