The Ichikawa Campus is a "green campus" with an open and green atmosphere. Various measures have been taken within the campus, such as the effective use of natural light and rainwater, and energy-saving air conditioning.

Rooftop greenery, interlocking blocks

屋上緑化、インターブロッキングブロック

Rooftop greening provides insulation, and the difference in surface temperature compared to an uncovered rooftop can be more than 20 degrees. Interlocking blocks help rainwater seep into the ground, helping to reduce runoff, recharge groundwater, cultivate roadside trees, and improve pedestrian access in rainy weather.

Use of top lights and high side lights

Use of top lights and high side lights

It effectively brings sunlight into the building and reduces the waste of electric lights and lighting.

Heat reflective glass, double glazing

Heat reflective glass, double glazing

In summer, it reflects solar energy to improve the cooling effect, and in winter, it prevents heat from escaping from inside the building to improve the heating effect. It helps to save energy on air conditioning.

Balcony eaves/sleeve walls

Eaves and sleeve walls play a major role in letting in an appropriate amount of natural light throughout the year. In particular, in the summer, they prevent sunlight from entering the room, reducing electricity consumption for air conditioning.

Natural ventilation

Natural ventilation

Building No. 1, completed in 2006, has ventilation windows at the top of the atrium and uses rising air currents for natural ventilation, making it a comfortable building.

Original toilet paper

As part of our environmental activities, we promote waste separation and recycling. As part of this, we have been recycling waste paper brought to waste paper collectors into raw material for toilet paper since 2004, and producing our own original toilet paper.
