🌏 From Asakusabashi, Tokyo, to the world.

We're pleased to share that Sketch and Sketch Business Management have been featured in a story distributed worldwide through PR Newswire, the largest press release network in the United States.

The article introduces our newest product for international markets: UV Shield PU — a clear, UV-protective coating that can be applied with nothing more than a roller.

It builds on years of UV expertise. Our IRUV CUT COAT window coating holds 80% of the Japanese market, has been sold in more than 40 countries, and has been applied to over 1.4 million square meters worldwide.

"High-tech product, low-tech application." That philosophy runs through everything we make — because a product that requires special machinery or licenses never reaches the places that need it most.

We've just posted our new video introducing PU Shield Clear — a transparent exterior protection coating that breaks the endless repainting cycle.

Instead of repainting every 7–10 years, a single application of PU Shield Clear delivers 15–20 years of superior weather resistance, blocks over 99% of UV, helps restore the color of faded surfaces, and can cut long-term maintenance costs by about half.

From "repair it when it fails" to "protect it for the long haul." Watch the full video to see how it works,

Further Promoting Energy-Saving Measures at Stores

Heat-Reflective Coating Applied to Outdoor Air Conditioner Units at Approximately 3,000 Stores

Reducing Power Consumption and CO2 Emissions While Ensuring Stable Air Conditioning Operation

FamilyMart (Head Office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President and Representative Director: Tateo Kotani) will celebrate its 45th anniversary in September 2026. Building on the five key initiatives the company has continuously pursued, FamilyMart will continue its activities under the slogan “The Most Challenging.”

As part of its initiative to become “the most environmentally friendly,” FamilyMart began applying heat-reflective coatings to outdoor air conditioner units at approximately 3,000 FamilyMart stores starting in March 2026. This initiative aims to reduce the burden on outdoor units caused by extreme summer heat, thereby lowering electricity consumption and environmental impact while maintaining comfortable store environments through the stable operation of air conditioning equipment.

Background and Purpose of the Initiative

In recent years, record-breaking summer heat has placed a significant burden on store air conditioning systems, leading to increased power consumption and reduced cooling efficiency. Through this initiative, heat-reflective coating is applied to outdoor units to suppress temperature increases caused by direct sunlight. This helps prevent declines in heat exchange efficiency and contributes to reducing electricity usage.

Overview of the Project and Features of the Coating Process

The coating work will be carried out sequentially at approximately 3,000 stores from March through December 2026. To achieve high-quality workmanship, a thorough process is implemented from cleaning to final finishing, ensuring long-term heat-shielding performance.

Project Period

March 1, 2026 – December 31, 2026

Target Stores

Approximately 3,000 FamilyMart stores

Coating Process

1. Surface Preparation
Water cleaning and thorough washing of outdoor units, including removal of dirt and rust.
2. Three-Layer Coating
Careful three-layer coating application using rollers and highly durable heat-reflective coatings designed for outdoor environments.
