Environment ExhibitionMay 23, 2017
We participated the environmental exhibition 2017 held at Tokyo Big Site.
It was crowded with lots of visitors from the opening as it was the opening day.
Since the theme this time was environmental business, we felt that there were many people who seemed have the impression of those who are very interested and enthusiastic about the exhibition.
The essence of the environmental business also depends on how we can circulate and manage the enormous amount of garbage from the lives that we live and the industries that support them, comfortably while considering the environment we think that it is a responsible task in the development of civilization. We thought that Green Biz was once again a building material ahead of the civilization, while visiting the environmental exhibition, feeling it again and spreading it.
We also met people who actively use moss to plant the rooftop and green the walls and taught the charm of moss. Since there are examples of using moss on green bisque, we hope that we can make further step ups hereafter.
NPO-Greenwave received a letter of thanks from Izumisano CityApril 25, 2017
We donated Green Biz G to the Izumisano City Hall Entrance Department at the end of March, but this time we received a letter of appreciation from Mayor of Izumisano City Mayor for this activity. We are so pleased to hear from the city that visitors commented they liked this new arrangement and comfortability. Through these initiatives, we will continue to work to promote environmental preservation activities.
Portland Japanese Garden CompletionApril 2, 2017
The cultural compound facilities which are in the Portland Japanese garden of the USA, State of Oregon "Cultural Village (cultural village)" were completed at last, and it was opened to the public on April 2.
Architect's corner Mr. Kuma Kengo and curator Mr. Sadabumi Uchiyama of Portland Japanese garden seem to use this Cultural Village as the place where the people who supervise and visit a garden as much as 300,000 people a year can buy participation of a culture event and an exhibition and a gift. NPO-Greenwave contributed the GreenBiz used as a roof of Cultural Village buildings.
"The city number one which would like to live" and the estimated environment forward city which introduced green infrastructure to Portland as management practice of rainwater. Green infrastructure is the coined word with Green which expresses green and Infrastructure which social infrastructure were combined and is the match which will use the disaster prevention nature has and the power of the improvement of water quality aggressively and do various problem solving in an area.
Green BizR is exhibited as Eco Living Roof in Cultural Village. We assume many people recognize "stormwater management" (the function useful for a rainwater measure at the time of heavy rain by making rainwater permeate and making them do running water slowly) as the excellent percolation and" water holding capacity which are the special quality of Green BizR through this exhibition, and it's being hoped when you can be a maid of community building gentle with the environment.
Izumisano-shi City office entrance.March 31, 2017
NPO Greenwave contributed Green BizG to a sidewalk pavement of inlet zone in Izumisano-shi, Osaka city office as a part of environmentalism. This Green BizG applied in front of the city office, and was the quiet atmosphere with the accents of the dark gray using gray as the base tone. We think when the person who uses a city office would realize that this sidewalk is the sidewalk even the day when it rains as well as restraint of a heat island phenomenon are easy to walk.
We appreciate that NPO Greenwave name was installed the plate by the city office this time again. When coming near to this office, please see it-Greenwave name, by all means.

The effect of the improvement of water quality experimentNovember 29, 2016
A seminar of Kibagata floating island project sponsorship in Komatsu-shi where NPO Greenwave also participated was held. The mechanism of an improvement of water quality experiment that Ike or pond in the Komatsu municipal Nakaumi elementary school site was performed targeted for the 5 and 6th grade of the elementary school and the result of the water survey after floating island establishment was confirmed this time. This experiment begun in June, 2015. The effect of which we thought wasn't obtained, and it was planned to establish in July, this year, but it was proved this time that there was a water quality improvement effect compared with the pond where improvement of water quality isn't being done. The foaming ceramics taken out from a pond was taken out, and children were examining whether there was plankton in GreenBiz using a magnifying glass. We assume in future, many children have an interest about the environment taking this as a start.
News letter from Portland gardenNovember 10, 2016
We have received a news letter from Portland Japanese garden. A meeting of advisory board is held by the letter in Portland on July 20, and if an environment stewartship in a garden is something suitable for a business model to carry, it's said that the Greenbiz we have donated was introduced.

Kibagata floating island project. The floating island announcement ceremony.June 10, 2016
The announcement of the artificial floating island where a water quality depurator in Kibagata was installed and performed in Komatsu-shi, Ishikawa Kibagata park west, park view lounge and a garden path around the west park on June 1, 2016.
Kibagata floating island project has begun to develop the next generation-type artificial floating island where a university, a citizen group, an enterprise and polity cooperate and purify the water quality in year of 2013 and NPO Greenwave also participated.
A demonstration experiment in the artificial floating island improved via an experiment at Komatsu municipal Nakaumi elementary school this time.
This artificial floating island is pounded to granularity, and 2 sets of "power generating unit" with 8 "vegetation units" in which 8 kinds of plant was planted and the solar panels which make water circulate by a pump is connected, and Japanese parsley, a calamus and wall pennywort have formed on the Greenbiz packed in a bag. There are phosphorus which causes the water contamination and a role of making them absorb nitrogen, and Greenbiz is planning to exchange collection around 2-3 months. By the way, the phosphorus and the nitrogen Greenbiz absorbed include important nutriment for a plant. It is expected also to inspect this Green biz in secondary use to soil improvement material.
An artificial floating island experiment is until the end of May of next year. Greenbiz makes the water beautiful, that, it'll be the further attractive material which is also gentle with the environment when it's possible to reuse, to agriculture. It is meaningful to know the future result.
The Resuscitation Project of pine forest by Dorin-choMarch10,2016
On March 5, 2016, Dorin-cho Forest Union has organized planting of Japanese black pine trees using GreenBiz. The place is in Nomi-shi, Ishikawa Prefecture near the coast of afforestation. NPO-GreenWave and Dorin-cho Forest Union both jointly participated the seminar on the wake of the local creation seminar which was organized by Kanazawa University in September last year, we heard about the resuscitation project of pine forest by Dorin-cho Forest Union. Since the GreenBiz Carew has the effect of withering of pine is reduced from the fact the soil improvement, as part of its environmental protection activities, to donate the GreenBiz Carew 600 kilometers and some seedlings in this tree planting Board (50 seedlings of seedlings pine I(one-unit). (info at: http://eco.chunichi.co.jp/news/2016/03/003006.html)
Planting activities were conducted by the members of the Dorin-cho Forest Union, the participation was more than 150 people from 18 organizations and companies, including local residents, granular or powder form to the hole in the 3 m intervals in the forest reserve of about 2,600 square meters that's the GreenBiz was planted with nursery seedlings. We could not participate in the tree planting gathering this time unfortunately on that day. However, we feel so fortunate that we could participate a little on this project. We pray for the successful planting of this GreenBiz Carew in future to spread to other regions, too.
ARCHITECTURE + CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS 2016March8 - March 11,2016
Same as last year, we participated ARCHITECTURE + CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS at Tokyo Big Site-Tokyo International Exhibition Center which was held for 4 days starting from March 8 until March 11. At Komatsu Seiren Company’s exhibit booth, they have exhibited the GreenBiz material products which was jointly collaborated with Daiwa Lease Company and it was introduced in October previous year-refer the news release dated October 14, 2015 by both company’s www address; www.komatsuseiren.co.jp and www.daiwalease.co.jp.
Jointly developed product was "AROMABIZ (Aromabizu)". By adsorbing the aroma to the foundation with a high water-holding capacity is the strength of GreenBiz, it seems to be the interior material that can be sustained oozes the smell in the room. This AROMABIZ is, also been used in the toilet wall of the fabric laboratory of Komatsu Seiren headquarters site, Komatsu City, which was completed in November last year, "fa-bo (Furbo)", you can actually see. Taking advantage of the texture of the mud walls tone with the material, that will be able to realize the interior with a design, we felt the future values.
As for the rest, attracted exceptionally visitors of attention was "GreenBiz G". Green Biz G as "eco-block Biz method" to the reservoir penetration of rain water, in December last year, has been the technical evaluation certified by Public Interest Incorporated Association for Rainwater Storage and Infiltration Technology. Rainwater Storage and Infiltration Technology Association spread the results of research and evaluation concerning rainwater storage penetration for the city of the water circulation system regeneration, is the organization that carried out awareness-raising activities. GreenBiz G seems to have obtained outflow suppression of rain water, the road surface temperature suppression, the evaluation in terms such as surface anti-freezing.
Also this time, the function of the traditional GreenBiz, can reduce the road surface temperature rise of summer sunshine "GreenBiz G-RF (thermal barrier type)" had been introduced as a new product. Now that the heat island phenomenon is important, there is also likely to be utilized in future Tokyo Olympic Games, etc., it was very interesting. Also disseminate these products as GreenWave, we think that if we help making the city friendly to the environment, even little by little.
