What is a "glove-box"?
A glove-box is a device for manipulating objects in an inert gas atmosphere by way of rubber gloves that are hermetically attached to the box. It is designed and built for replacing gases and controlling gas flow, thus providing a controlled environment in which the manipulated objects are protected against oxygen, moisture and other reactive elements that have an adverse effect on characteristics. A glove-box is ultimately an integral piece of equipment for improving product performance and doubly beneficial to product development operations by safeguarding users against harmful substance.

As an environment-friendly factory
At Miwa, compliance underscores our desire to harmoniously coexist with hosting communities and the global environment. It duly serves as a guiding light for reducing the environmental load and enhancing the efficiency of our business operations through activities aimed at minimizing consumption (resources, energy, etc.) and emissions at every point of our production process. Also, as our part in the fight against climate change, we are taking constructive steps to develop environment-friendly manufacturing processes and products that conserve energy and resources, and reduce the CO₂ emissions that are tied to energy consumption. With regards to waste, we are always looking for ways to improve processes and are carefully sorting discarded materials from a 3R (Reduce-Reuse-Recycle) perspective that is helping us to increase resource recycling rate and reduce waste.
