LAUNCH Event Held and Featured on Television on August 7,2026
S Bridges held its LAUNCH event in Hamamatsu, Shizuoka, presenting a circular economy and ecosystem enabled by our “Use It All” technology.
S Bridges provides a platform built on advanced “Use It All” technology that makes full use of valuable plant resources and helps address a wide range of social challenges that hinder social and economic activities. Through this platform, companies across diverse sectors and consumers are connected, enabling a circular economy and creating a sustainable and prosperous future.
This event marks the first step in initiating a circular economy from Shizuoka, where our headquarters is located. The event was co hosted with Cosmo Energy Holdings Co., Ltd., which expects to utilize fibers produced from unused plant materials—through “Use It All” technology—as bioethanol, a plant derived renewable fuel.
During the event, we unveiled a new material derived from unused tea leaves: Green Tea Protein Powder (high protein, caffeine free, aluminum free). We also partnered with Saint- Raphael Co., Ltd., a long established and popular confectionery shop in Hamamatsu, which created special sweets using this new ingredient. Participants had the opportunity to taste these items and experience a new model of “regional circular economy” rooted in local plant resources.
