RS TAICHI Co., Ltd., which plans, manufactures, and sells motorcycle riding gear, announces that its motorcycle riding cooling system "LIQUIDWIND" has been adopted by Showa Koki Co., Ltd., a leading manufacturer of heatstroke countermeasures, for its professional brand "PRODIST." Showa Koki will launch an original version of the system, expanding its reach beyond traditional motorcycle product channels into Showa Koki's strong network of nationwide workshops and worksites. This collaboration aims to enhance comfort in increasingly severe heat environments at work sites.

■ Background and Aims of Collaboration: Expanding Sales Channels from the Motorcycle Industry to the "Work Market"

In recent years, record-breaking heatwaves have made safety management in outdoor and indoor work sites such as construction, logistics, and factories a serious issue. Currently, many sites are equipped with fan-equipped apparel, but when the ambient temperature rises close to body temperature, a problem arises: "hot air circulates inside the clothing, failing to provide sufficient cooling effects."

"LIQUIDWIND," cultivated in the motorcycle market by our company, is a system that achieves evaporative cooling by combining cooling water contained in clothing with airflow. We are confident that this technology is the decisive solution to the challenges of fan-equipped apparel, leading us to collaborate with Showa Koki, which has extensive experience in heat countermeasures for work sites.

By supplying products through Showa Koki's vast network in the work industry market, we can directly approach numerous work users who have not had the opportunity to visit motorcycle shops, contributing to the improvement of safety and comfort at work sites.

■ Product Features: The Mechanism for Reliable Cooling

"Evaporative Cooling" Enhanced by Fan-Equipped Apparel

Dedicated cooling liquid supplied through a tube is applied to underwear, and when air from fan-equipped wear is directed onto it, the clothing is cooled by the "heat of vaporization" generated as the water evaporates. This allows for efficient cooling sensation using only the airflow from fan-equipped apparel, even in indoor work or scaffolding environments without riding wind.

Cooling Sensation Sustains Even on Days Exceeding 35°C

Even in harsh environments where the ambient temperature exceeds body temperature, the dedicated liquid containing cooling ingredients (menthol) approaches the skin's surface. Compared to the use of general fan-equipped apparel alone, it provides a definite cooling sensation and cooling effect.
Furthermore, the cooling water "LIQUIDWIND WATER" is a dedicated product jointly developed by cosmetic manufacturer Mandom Corporation and our company. It is designed to maximize the performance of the cooling system by providing a refreshing sensation during evaporative cooling.

Showa Koki Route Exclusive: Pursuing Ease of Use for Field Work

FAQ

How does "LIQUIDWIND" provide cooling?

It utilizes evaporative cooling by applying air from a fan to apparel soaked with a special cooling liquid, thus cooling the inside of the clothing and lowering the perceived temperature.

Why is this technology effective for heat countermeasures in work sites?

It provides reliable cooling even in harsh environments where ambient temperatures are close to body temperature, a situation where conventional fan-equipped wear alone is insufficient. The menthol formulation also ensures lasting coolness.

In what types of work sites is this product used?

It is suitable for all work performed in high-temperature environments, including construction, logistics, and factories, both indoors and outdoors. It is designed for comfort even during physically demanding tasks.

What are the benefits of the collaboration between RS TAICHI and Showa Koki?

The combination of RS TAICHI's advanced cooling technology and Showa Koki's extensive sales network for work sites allows the product to reach a wider range of field workers, accelerating the adoption of heat countermeasures.

Where can I purchase the product?

It will be available through Showa Koki's sales channels as part of their professional brand "PRODIST." Please check Showa Koki's website for details.
