almholz was adopted for the "Green Growth Field" of business restructuring subsidies on September 16, 2022.
With this subsidy, mass production of building materials will start using oil palm trunks which are unused resources as raw materials in Malaysia.
Palmholz made a proposal to the "Higo Labo" project, a regional issue matching platform that JICA Kyushu and the Kuma Regional Development Bureau of Kumamoto Prefecture are working together.
We aim to contribute to the reconstruction support for the heavy rain disaster in the Hitoyoshi/Kuma area that occurred in July 2020.
Palmholz was entered in the Chubu Tournament of Media Business Solution Promotion Unit Sta ★ At Pitch Japan by Nikkei Inc.
The pitch video of the block tournament will be broadcast all over the world on the official website of Sta ★ At Pitch, and will be viewed by a lot of viewers.
Palmholz exhibited at Eco Pro 2022, which was held at Tokyo Big Sight from December 7th to 9th, 2022.
Palmholz will exhibit at Eco Pro 2023, which will be held at Tokyo Big Sight from December 8th to 10th, 2023.
Palmholz Co., Ltd. has many technologies and patents that transform oil palm trunk (OPT), an unused resource seen as lacking value since it lacks the strength to serve as a construction material, into new products.
Many of these technologies were originally developed as part of pressurizing technology as part of research into effective use of cedar that became an issue due to its limited applications after harvesting as many such forests were planted in Japan after WW2.
By compressing cedar, which was inappropriate for flooring applications due to lack of strengths including wear resistance, it doubled and tripled wear resistance strength enabling use as flooring. This patented technology was researched and developed by our predecessor, My Wood Two, Co., Ltd.
We bring manufacturing knowledge needed to produce wood working products to Malaysia, number two in the world for oil palm silviculture by area, and support business development for transforming unused OPT materials into valuable resources.
We also perform business matching with businesses handling Malaysian-made wooden products for exterior and interior products as construction materials or furniture materials.
Oil palm trunk (OPT) is used for wooden products that are friendly to people and the global environment that do not use petrochemical materials enabled by the technology of Palmholz Co., Ltd.
Many schools, city halls, gymnasiums and libraries have used this material for floors, tables, interior for traditional inns, bridges for ponds in gardens, bench materials and other indoor and outdoor applications enabling verification of the safety and reliability of these products.
In order to develop business applications of OPT we have established a stable supply chain for OPT, supported mass production technologies for OPT wooden products, researched and developed manufacturing using OPT, built up production of oil palm with the purpose of sales of products using OPT and established an operating corporation in Malaysia (scheduled for 2025), there OPT use may become an issue.
We are on the lookout for business partners who want to develop OPT projects with our operating corporation.
If you are interested in the applications of unused OPT resources and would consider partnering with our operating company to develop OPT businesses, contact us using our inquiry form.
To create business applications of OPT, it is necessary to take efforts to ensure consistent supplies of large amounts of OPT. That is why we are recruiting oil palm farmers that can partner with wood working companies with an interest in developing applications for unused OPT resources.
OPT has lots of starches and sugars so rot sets in unless treated within 24 hours of harvesting causing a loss of value as a resource. That is why we recruit plywood manufacturer that can form partnerships with oil palm farmers. We provide the necessary systemization for high value-added wooden product manufacturing technology and production.
Research and development for business applications and effective use of OPT requires funds.
That is why we recruit investors able to perform ESG investment and interested in projects contributing to achieving OPT applications, environmental conservation, and SDGs.
We are able to make OPT wooden products with different strength and treatment method depending on application due to research and development in OPT high value-added wooden product technologies and pass it on to Malaysian wood treatment companies, but we lack experience in mass production.
That is why we are looking for companies holding wooden product mass production technologies that can support local mass production.
OPT complex material is a natural wooden product that retains the feeling of the wood even when used as a core bonded with a surface of a cultivated tree such as cedar or acacia.
That is why we are looking for companies interested in product creation and sales using wooden products.
In addition to use of OPT for wooden products, it can be used for a variety of applications including as a material for promoting reductions in plastics, as animal feed and as a mushroom bed for cultivating.
OPT complex material is a wooden product that is environmentally friendly, using no chemical substances in its preparation. Construction involves use of metal such as steel or screws.
We are looking to develop processes including construction that use completely naturally sourced materials.
We are looking for companies that perform construction with natural materials.
