On Thursday, December 11, 2025, three sixth graders from Shiroi Second Elementary School visited our Chiba Daini Plant as part of a workplace tour.

On the day, they observed manufacturing processes such as annealing, cutting, and straightening, and in the inspection room they used a commercial microscope with a maximum magnification of 2500x to observe items such as washi paper, masks, and hair. The students seemed very interested in this microscopic world that they don't normally see.

We will continue to convey the appeal of manufacturing through our cooperation with local educational activities.
