Disasters such as fires and earthquakes disrupt the safety, security, convenience of society; destroy buildings and other property; and sometimes claim lives. It is crucial to take precautions to minimize damage if a fire occurs, reduce risk by preparing for earthquakes, and to secure a “lifeline” against power outages that accompany these disasters.
The Sanwa Group supplies, worldwide, a broad range of products that protect lives and property from fires, earthquakes, and other disasters.
In our Long-Term Vision and Mid-Term Management Plan announced in May 2022, we set a new target for the net sales of products contributing to disaster prevention for FY 2024. For our maintenance and service business, which plays an important role in maintaining the function of disaster prevention in buildings, we also set a new target for FY 2024, aiming for profit growth through business expansion. and contributing to the realization of "sustainable, resilient communities".
