GetWorks Completes Productization of Shelter-Type Container Data Center Specialized for Large-Scale Disasters and Emergencies
**Subtitle: A shelter-type container data center that protects and ensures continuous operation of AI/GPU servers, storage, and more under any circumstances. A physical unit will be showcased at "Japan IT Week Spring" (April 8-10, 2026).**
GetWorks Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Hidenori Nakazawa; hereinafter "GetWorks"), in collaboration with Nao Engineering Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Yuki City, Ibaraki) and Medical-Aid Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Izumi City, Osaka), has completed the productization of a shelter-type container data center (hereinafter "the product") specialized for large-scale disasters and emergencies.
Since 2024, GetWorks has been developing container data centers for edge computing and edge AI, announcing a product in June 2025. In parallel, GetWorks has been conducting various designs, developments, and demonstration experiments for "large-scale disaster and emergency countermeasures," one of the major themes set when the company entered the container DC business in 2012.
This new collaboration has resulted in the commercialization of a robust shelter-type container data center.
The five key features are:
- **Seismic Resistance:** Highest class 3 seismic rating (importance factor 1.5). - **Impact Resistance:** Highest level of impact (puncture) resistance. *Specific values are not disclosed.* - **EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) Protection:** Highest level of shielding performance (dB). *Specific values are not disclosed.* - **Liquid Cooling Compatible:** Openings and penetrations use special packing and shielding, also used in marine vessels. - **Various Sizes:** Available in 10-foot (FT), 12FT, 20FT, and 40FT sizes.
Data centers are now critical facilities for AI and IT infrastructure. Ensuring their continuous operation and protecting data under any circumstances is a top priority. While discussions on solutions are ongoing nationwide, this product has already entered mass production and can be delivered in about two months, making it an immediately available solution. We will continue to anticipate various scenarios and repeat development and demonstration experiments to solve challenges and enhance performance.
This product is also a key component of GetWorks' plan for regional decentralization of data centers. In collaboration with NTT Docomo Business Co., Ltd. (formerly NTT Communications Corporation) for sales and technical partnership, we will connect GetWorks' self-operated sites in Yuzawa Town (Niigata), Hokkaido, and Kagoshima using NTT Docomo Business's IOWN® APN service ("docomo business APN Plus"). Our goal is to establish a robust container data center model that integrates power and data ("watt-bit coordination").
In addition to inquiries via web or email, a physical unit of this product and a 40FT container DC for GPU cluster configurations will be exhibited at the "Japan IT Week Spring 2026" (Tokyo Big Sight) from April 8th (Wed) to 10th (Fri). We invite all interested parties to attend.

### About GetWorks Co., Ltd. Our container data centers have evolved through various demonstration experiments since the first unit was announced in 2013. We go beyond simply building container data centers; we also focus on energy conservation and the use of renewable energy (snow, water, outside air) in cooperation with local governments. We continue to build various types of data centers tailored to the installation environment (climate, power, etc.) and customer needs. As of January 2026, we have a track record of building over 300 units (over 270 20ft units, over 30 40ft units), with successful deliveries to major corporations, power companies, and hospitals with stringent requirements. We can handle everything from site selection to civil engineering, electrical work, communication infrastructure, and application procedures. We also support various subsidies and grants, which have seen increasing use by our customers in recent years. Furthermore, due to the growing demand for AI and high-speed computing, we have experience installing and operating over 3,000 servers and 10,000 GPUs. Our complete in-house design and domestic production enable short delivery times and cost reductions, with deployment and operation possible in as little as 10 days from the order.
### About Nao Engineering Co., Ltd. Nao Engineering has been in the sheet metal fabrication business in Yuki City, Ibaraki for over 40 years. Building on our long-cultivated sheet metal technology, we began developing, manufacturing, and selling our first proprietary products, the "Disaster Prevention Nuclear Shelter" and "CRISIS-01," in 2021, expanding our business into the disaster prevention infrastructure field. We have an integrated production system from design, laser processing, bending, welding, to painting, ensuring high-quality and reliable products. Since 2025, we have also introduced high-durability, high-purity polyurea coating equipment, which is also used on our shelter products, as we strive to develop and provide products with excellent disaster prevention and durability performance.
### About Medical-Aid Co., Ltd. Medical-Aid is the company that developed the world's first electromagnetic wave-shielding clothing for pacemaker users. The protective clothing we have developed spans the medical, industrial, and military fields. Utilizing the electromagnetic shielding technology and proprietary materials cultivated through this development, we offer products such as electromagnetic shielding rooms and shielded vehicles, which have been adopted by many companies, universities, and government agencies to high acclaim. From August 26 to September 1, 2025, our products and technologies were exhibited at the Osaka Healthcare Pavilion during the Osaka Expo.
