▲ Images of selling by weight
Teraoka Seiko, as a pioneer of scales in Japan that developed Japan's first commercial spring scale, is increasing the opportunity for people to experience selling by weight in their daily lives through the development and distribution of sell-by-weight scales, promoting eco-consciousness among consumers for reduction in food loss and single-use disposable waste. At this event, we are supplying our scales to the venue and providing support to ensure the demonstration of selling by weight goes smoothly.
In Europe and the United States, the "Bring Your Own Container (BYOC)" movement is becoming widespread among eco-conscious consumers, who are switching from using disposable containers to bringing their own container to a shop for purchases. In Japan, we too are promoting the BYOC movement as an eco-friendly activity and contributing to the reduction of plastic waste.

Teraoka Seiko Co. Ltd.（总部：东京，日本/ kosuke Yamamoto的Ohta-Ku）已成功登记了减少宠物塑料瓶的设计D由“瓶壁球”* 2系列反向自动售货机与日本专利局（JPO）（注册日期：2019年1月11日）。这是日本的第一个* 1设计注册，用于源自PET塑料瓶的可回收材料。迄今为止，JPO允许在允许压缩/体积减少使用的PET塑料瓶的登记时没有其他示例produced by such equipment as valuable recyclable material, rather than just waste.
The Bottle Squash series uses our company’s original pre-cutting compression method, which is designed to prevent the bottle from re-expanding after being compressed. In addition, the process does not rupture the bottle spout, so there is no risk the spout will fall off during transport, allowing the complete bottle to be collected as one piece. These two features turn the processed bottles into high-quality recyclable material.

| Volume-reduced PET plastic bottle using the pre-cutting method | Bottle Squash series PET plastic bottle reverse vending machine |
An issue with conventional volume reduction processes is that air reenters the bottles after crushing, causing them to expand. We focused on this issue from the start of product development and devised a pre-cutting compression method that prevents bottles from re-expanding, by introducing cuts into the bottles. The reduced volume achieved by this technology increases logistics efficiency and reduces CO2 emissions from transport of the material.
PET plastic bottle recycling material is sold to recyclers by the kilogram. If the spout, which is the thickest part of the PET plastic bottle, falls off when the bottle is compressed, the value of the recycling material is reduced by that amount, so this method makes sure the spout remains attached. Additionally, handling the material after it has been collected is easier during the baling and crushing stages of the recycling process because the spout stays with the bottle.
In this way, PET plastic bottles can be collected as high quality recyclable material to help achieve proper resource circulation (for a circular economy).
Currently, about 300 units of the Bottle Squash PET plastic bottle reverse vending machine have been deployed across Japan in supermarkets and convenience stores, and by local governments, and have become collection bases for PET plastic bottle recycling.
Considering the growing plastic waste problem, Teraoka Seiko believes that PET plastic bottles need to be considered a valuable recycling resource, rather than just waste. And to this end, our company is helping to create a society that realizes the proper circulation of this resource through our original technology.
