Professor Shunsuke Iwanami of the Department of Creative Engineering at Tomakomai National College of Technology, who has been working hard on the OSP Group's recruitment activities, was selected as a member of the wintering team for the 65th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition, and we donated 1,000 stickers to the Antarctic Research Expedition. The stickers will be used on helmets and equipment on-site.

The Antarctic Research Expedition is dispatched to conduct various research on the weather, biology, and other aspects of Antarctica. There are two teams: the summer team, who stay for three months in the summer, and the wintering team, who stay all year round. For more information on the activities of the research teams, please see below.

This product is designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the Antarctic environment.
We chose milky PET as our material, which has little stretching and excellent durability, and by using a strong adhesive that is even stronger than regular adhesive, we have achieved a strength that makes it difficult to peel off even in harsh natural environments of -40°C.
In addition, because the ultraviolet rays reflected from the snow surface are strong in Antarctica, the entire sticker is covered with a transparent film that blocks UV rays, and ultra-light-resistant ink is used to prevent color fading.
At the OSP Group, we are able to handle everything from specification selection to design, printing and delivery all within our own group, enabling us to respond quickly to even the smallest of orders.
We will continue to utilize the technical expertise we have cultivated to support the activities of the Antarctic Research Expedition.
