Center for Research & Development | Yamato Protec Corporation

A laboratory for R&D to meet ever-changing fire protection needs

Yamato Protec's Center for Research and Development was established in July 1995 as a brand-new facility for conducting state-of-the art research and development. It has already acquired an excellent reputation for its experimental facilities and high standards of research. Today, fire prevention means not only fighting fires, but also developing environmentally sound advanced systems and equipment.

The Center for Research and Development conducts research on disaster prevention with a global outlook and emphasis on environmental changes. Together with our Technical Development Division in Osaka, we are developing systems and equipment to cope with increasingly diversified disaster prevention needs. Our environmentally friendly, supremely reliable products help make the world a safer and better place to live.
