Bezel Inc. (Representative: Junichi Harauma, Headquarters: Nagahama City, Shiga Prefecture), a subsidiary of Harauma Kasei Co., Ltd., announces the next-generation circulating tire stopper "HOLDEN+" aimed at improving safety and reducing workload in logistics sites. HOLDEN+ is a tire stopper used when parking trucks and commercial vehicles. Compared to conventional products, it is lighter and easier to handle, reducing the burden on drivers during daily installation and retrieval work. Furthermore, its high-strength design achieves the safety and practicality required in logistics sites.

The logistics industry faces significant challenges such as an aging driver population, labor shortages, the need to reduce workload, and thorough safety measures. While tire stoppers are safety equipment used daily at sites, issues related to weight, portability, and storage have been raised. HOLDEN+ was developed in response to these challenges under the concept of "Making Logistics Safer, Lighter, and Stronger."

Main Features of HOLDEN+

1. Lightweight Design of Approximately 460g

HOLDEN+ features a lightweight design of approximately 460g, allowing it to be handled with one hand. This reduces physical strain during daily loading, unloading, and installation work, and is designed with consideration for female and elderly drivers.

Overwhelming Lightness

- Even women can easily carry it with one hand!

- Reduces workload at the site.

2. High-Strength Design

In addition to being lightweight, it achieves high strength suitable for use in logistics sites. The shape design has been ingeniously developed to pursue both lightness and strength.

CAE Analysis

- Using the latest CAE analysis, we succeeded in reducing weight while maintaining strength!

- Established an original design

3. Smart Storage with Magnets

The main body has built-in magnets, allowing two units to be stored together as a set. This prevents them from scattering inside the vehicle or storage area, making them easy to carry and put away.

Easy! Convenient Storage ♡

- Easy to carry the product!

- Products do not scatter inside the vehicle and are stored compactly ♡

- Purchasing different colors allows for more personalized combinations!

*Utility model registered*

4. Resource-Circulating Model Using Recycled PP

*Currently, due to the global impact of raw material shortages and price increases, only the black model, which utilizes 100% recycled materials, is available先行 to ensure consistent quality and supply.*

The black model uses recycled polypropylene. Waste materials generated during the manufacturing process are reused as new resources, contributing to waste reduction and resource circulation.

Harauma Kasei Co., Ltd. views waste materials generated during manufacturing not as mere waste, but as resources that can create value again. HOLDEN+ is a product that not only improves safety in logistics sites but also contributes to companies' decarbonization management, green logistics, and the construction of sustainable supply chains. Bezel Inc. will continue to contribute to the safety of the logistics industry and the realization of a sustainable society by balancing the creation of products that are truly easy to use at sites with the reduction of environmental impact.

Rethink "Re-creation of Value"

- We will collect old tire stoppers and re-manufacture them for sale.

- This collection and re-manufacturing initiative is limited to BtoB sales.

*This is an initiative with companies that agree with the concept of Rethink.*

Comments from Development Staff

"We developed this with the desire to make logistics safer, lighter, and stronger." Currently, due to the headwinds of material shortages, production is limited to the black model only (hundreds of sets per month), but that is precisely why we put solid quality into each piece. We want to build a sustainable logistics future together with partner companies who resonate with the philosophy of Rethink (re-creation of value), which involves collecting old stoppers and re-manufacturing them.
