[Applications of the earth-retaining steel sheet]
● Afforestation
● Prevention of road shoulder collapses
● Retention of slope-toe earth in developing land
● Emergency actions for disasters
(It is also often used for retaining earth in cultivated land.)

★ Easy to assemble, the product reliably retains earth
Consisting of only steel sheets and columns, the product can be easily and quickly assembled. With a tip specially treated, the column is easy to drive vertically. In addition, the product is based on the tensile strength of the steel sheet, which retains earth more strongly and reliably than the conventional methods.

★A wide range of applications and low costs for installation
With the flexibility of the steel sheets, the product can be formed to a desired shape according to the geographical features, providing a wide range of earth retention applications. In addition, it can be assembled with light work such as column driving and steel-sheet insertion, requiring lower costs.

★Perfect corrosion resistance
The product uses the High Color from Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal as the steel sheet and pipes electroplated and then baked as the column, providing an outstanding corrosion resistance.

★A variety of available colors matching natural landscapes
The product is available in three colors: greenish brown, dark brown, and green.

Earth-retaining steel sheets are used in many applications in Tokyo, Chiba, and Kanagawa prefectures. In the other areas, however, they are almost not used. We do hope that customers across Japan will experience the effect of the earth-retaining steel sheet.
