Local Procurement of Product Transportation Protection Sheets in Vietnam | Direct Delivery to the Line via Adhesive Tape and Slitting Process

In parallel with the launch of mass production for a new product, the client wanted to secure protection sheets locally to prevent scratches during transportation—We selected an adhesive tape optimized for adhesive strength, peelability, and weather resistance, and performed slitting processes at our Vietnam base. This achieved a stable supply synchronized with the launch of the new product.

“Shortage in Local Procurement of Protection Sheets” That Emerged with the New Product Launch

The client wanted to secure protection sheets locally to prevent scratches during new product transportation. It was necessary to establish a stable procurement route in parallel with new product development.
They were unable to find a tape with the suitable adhesive strength and peelability locally.
●Emerging Situation: New product development phase. Pre-mass production preparation at the Vietnam production base.
●Main Impact: Risk of delay in new product launch, falling behind local competitors due to unestablished supply chain.

Why It Cannot Be Secured Locally: Mismatch Between Required Physical Properties for Adhesive Strength and Peelability, and Local Standard Commercial Products

Requirements for adhesive strength, weather resistance, and peelability are high, and local standard commercial products lack the necessary physical properties. The supply chain is unestablished.
●Specific Basis: Quality and cost hearings, and verification of the physical properties of local candidate tapes.

Countermeasures Tried So Far and Their Limitations

Adopting local standard commercial tapes (residue adhesive, poor peeling), air transportation from the Japanese headquarters (unacceptable cost and lead time). Based on these limitations, the following approach was adopted as a more radical measure.

Reducing Factory Electricity Costs & Heat Countermeasures | Developing Custom-Processed Heat-Insulating & UV-Cut Sheets (Japan-ASEAN Collaboration)

In response to the triple demands of soaring electricity costs, SDGs compliance, and working environment improvement, our company has designed an original processed sheet with heat-insulating and UV-cutting functions. By coating non-woven fabrics or films with specialized paint and providing them in a format that lowers installation barriers, we have expanded our target audience to include customers with rental properties and those looking to protect existing facilities. Triple Demands: Soaring Factory Electricity Costs, SDGs Requirements, and Working Environment Improvement There is a strong desire to simultaneously reduce factory electricity costs and implement heat countermeasures. Many customers requested a sheet format that is easy to install, rather than just the paint itself.A format was needed that could be implemented even by customers for whom applying paint is difficult (rental properties, protection of existing facilities).● Scenarios of Emergence: The triple demands of rising electricity costs, SDGs compliance, and working environment improvement are becoming prominent.● Main Impacts: Deterioration of factory running costs, decline in winter/summer working efficiency, and unfulfilled CSR requirements. Why Existing Solutions Fall Short: Paint Application Barriers and the Limits of Conventional Insulation Materials Conventional heat-insulating countermeasures were based on the premise of paint application, creating a high barrier for installation work.● Specific Basis: Sample evaluations and on-site interviews. Solutions Tried So Far and Their Limitations Installing conventional insulation materials (unfeasible due to weight and poor workability), updating air conditioning units only (requires large investment).Based on these limitations, we adopted the following approach as a more fundamental solution. Solution Approach: Optimizing the Combination of Paint, Film, and Non-Woven Fabric × Developing Custom-Processed Products We developed our own custom-processed product by coating non-woven fabrics and films with specialized paint, lowering implementation barriers through sample provision and small-lot sales. STEP. 01 Material Combination Optimization Reviewing the configuration of paint × film × non-woven fabric STEP. 02 Custom-Processed Product Development Transforming into an easy-to-install format through coating and slitting processes STEP. 03 Utilization of Overseas Bases Utilization and cross-regional expansion of products supplied overseas (sharing evaluation data) STEP. 04 Cost Simulation Visualizing cost structures to support informed implementation decisions Fuji Chemi Trading's Service Network: Head Office (Sales & Technology) × ASEAN Bases This solution is achieved through a clear division of roles across multiple bases.・Head Office / Domestic Sales: Customer window and cost simulation・Technology & Development: Coating recipe development for paints, and preparation of evaluation data・Thailand and Vietnam Bases: Sharing evaluation track records at ASEAN factories● Supply System: Sample provision, small-lot sales, and in-house custom processing support. Results of Implementation Achieved a reduction in factory running costs (electricity bills). Successfully developed into a cross-regional proprietary product that is also effective for acquiring new customers.● KPI Candidates: Electricity cost reduction (on an estimated basis) / Room temperature drop in implemented factories / Record of cross-regional expansion to additional buildings and group factories.● Implementation Lead Time: Fast-track response from sample evaluation to small-lot supply. Anticipated Ripple Effects and Cross-Regional Expansion The implementation effects of this solution go beyond solving the primary challenge. Please also utilize it as compelling material for internal and management-level proposals.・Continuous tailwinds from soaring electricity costs and environmental regulations will drive mid-to-long-term growth in lead generation.・Expansion to applications beyond roofs and outer walls (such as windows, skylights, and partitions).・Proposals addressing the same theme for ASEAN factories can be rolled out, driven from Japan-based sites.・Utilized internally by customers as evidence for SDGs/CO2 reduction reports, creating an internal word-of-mouth diffusion effect.
