Tokyo Gas, Itochu Marubeni Steel, and Win-Fast have started selling the 'ECOBO series,' a non-fossil electricity steel product, as the first commercial item through their low-carbon steel development and sales support service. It has been decided that it will be adopted for the renovation project of the Kajima Technical Research Institute Main Building, handled by Kajima Corporation.
The 'ECOBO series' is a product that significantly reduces CO2 emissions, compliant with guidelines for product-specific carbon footprint calculation. The series includes 'ECOBO,' which uses non-fossil electricity; 'ECOBO/PLUS,' which utilizes carbon credits; and 'ECOBO/ZERO,' which expands the reduction scope to raw material procurement and transport, responding to diverse needs.
This service will expand its availability to steel manufacturers nationwide. Furthermore, Tokyo Gas and Itochu Marubeni Steel plan to establish an alliance around October 2026, aimed at accelerating the formation of a market for low-carbon construction materials.
