Japan rolls out Do Reimon Box to cool outdoor workers
Japan just rolled out the Do Reimon Box, a portable cooling booth designed to help outdoor workers beat the summer heat.
Developed by TRUSCO Nakayama Corporation, this stainless-steel booth lets people step inside and chill out in minutes, making it a game-changer for those working in construction, factories, or logistics.
Booth stays 15°C and blasts 5°C
The booth stays at a comfy 15 degrees Celsius and blasts five degrees Celsius air onto your neck, back, and head for quick relief.
Most folks only need five to 10 minutes inside to feel refreshed (sessions are capped at 20 minutes).
It's easy to move around work sites, and it plugs into a regular outlet.
The Do Reimon Box is part of Japan's push to protect workers as climate change brings hotter, tougher summers: think of it as an extra layer alongside water breaks and other safety measures.
