The swell business, which was started in 2015, has been contracted for consultations not only for cleaning but also for disaster relief, and the company’s efforts so far have borne fruit.
Unfortunately, at the end of the year, the company experienced a series of industrial accidents and plant breakdowns. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this caused, and ourmanagement team has taken the initiative to prevent such a situation from happening again.

What is biogas power generation?

In July 2023, the Nishinomiya Biogas Power Plant began full-scale operation. The company is focused on becoming a model for the region by generating electricity from food waste andrecycling resources, using the residue as fertilizer.

Biogas power generation is a method of generating electricity by fermenting food-derived waste to produce methane and using the generated biogas asfuel for a biogas generator. This approach has been attracting attention as a carbon-neutral and clean power generation method that generates no CO2. Bycontinuing to generate renewable energy from industrial waste produced by farms and cities, we are contributing to the emergence of a society committed torecycling.

This fiscal year, we succeeded in launching several new services, one of which is our “dismantling service.” This service emerged in response to

Aiming to become an “indispensable company” that supports the infrastructure of the food and beverageindustry, we opened the Kanto branch office in 2016 and established a one-stop support system for nationwide chain stores.
In recent years, in addition to grease trap cleaning, we have expanded our services to include high-pressure cleaning of drainage pipes and cleaning of miscellaneous wastewater tanks

In the future, by making use of our experience and record of performance, we aim to contribute to the reduction of global environmental impacts andbeverage industry, but also in large facilities, hospitals, and buildings.

We boast a track record of more than 20,000 in-house service calls per year. Our advantage is our ability to respond to the needs of all kinds of facilities with thetechnological capabilities and expertise accumulated through our extensive business experience. In addition to cleaning grease traps in the food and beverage industry, weare expanding the scope of our services to include cleaning and repairing drainage pipes and water tanks in large shopping malls, airports, and hospitals.

Comprehensive and appropriate processing through legal compliance
Companies are required to take into account the proper transportation and disposal of waste; at the same time, they must consider environmental conservation andreduction of environmental impacts. All oil and food residues collected as part of Daikyo Clean’s cleaning processes are properly treated as industrial waste, and a manifest
is issued to confirm this processing after all tasks are completed.
Our compliance-focused efforts have been well received by many different customers, including major family restaurant chains, complexes, hotels, and department
stores. We have earned recognition as a company with a high awareness of risk management.

Seven years have passed since the company was established, a time during which we have kept our business on a stable growth trajectory. Now that we have trained our personnel,
especially our young people, and have established our organizational foundation, we are now entering the phase in which we can consider expanding into new businesses. In the current

oil from flowing out into the sewer system. The oil suspended on water requires regular cleaning services toremove it, and failure to do so can result in foul odors and pest infestations. By regularly removing dirt fromgrease traps installed in restaurant kitchens, we contribute to a more hygienic environment, prevent waterpollution, and reduce the amount of sludge discharged.

Daikyo Clean operates a fleet of work vehicles, including
seventeen 3-ton vacuum trucks, two 7-ton vacuum trucks,

trucks.

We are steadily expanding our service area across the country. Although we are currently based in the Kansai
and Kanto regions of Japan, Daikyo Clean Corporation serves a territory encompassing a total of 14 prefectures.
We have obtained licenses for the collection and transportation of industrial waste, and handle this waste in many
