Safety symbol monument

The monuments are installed in the lobby of our headquarters in Kanda Izumicho and in the hall of NX-TEC Izu.
Each monument is designed around the motif of four columns.
The four pillars represent the core elements of Nippon Express: "land," "sea," "air," and "people," and symbolize how these elements work together in a scrum to create a global network.
The shape of the monument from both sides is circular and spherical, representing the Earth and the world, signifying a pledge of safety, and also representing Nippon Express's wish for "harmony" and "connection" to the world.
