Today September 1st is "Disaster Prevention Day". It is a day to deepen awareness of disasters such as typhoons, storm surges, and earthquakes, and to confirm preparations for peacetime.

One of the dangers lurking in a house when an earthquake occurs is "falling furniture". Currently, various countermeasure goods are on sale, but it seems that Otsuka Kagu's furniture fall prevention device "Earthquake Resistant Atlas Neo" has recently obtained a patent.


Seismic Atlas Neo is a furniture fall prevention device designed to firmly support the ceiling and furniture with "faces". In a vibration experiment that reproduced an actual seismic wave, it was proved that it could withstand a seismic intensity of 6 to 7 or so.

The design, which won the 2013 Good Design Award, is simple and sophisticated without spoiling the aesthetics of the room. Adjust the support by expanding and contracting according to the height from the top plate of the furniture to the ceiling. It is said that it is easy to install with the overtightening prevention function, but there is also a service that professional staff will install for free at the time of delivery.


The tax-included price starts from 15,120 yen. It can be purchased at each showroom of Otsuka Kagu. After something happens, it's too late to take measures against earthquakes, so why not review it again?
