NOBOROKKA: A Legacy of Safe and Sustainable Steps
NOBOROKKA was developed by Hemmi Planning Co., Ltd., a Japanese company dedicated to making slope traversal safer and more comfortable for people. Its origins date back to 1974, when the company’s founder believed that “stable infrastructure-level electricity is the cornerstone of a truly democratic lifestyle.” Initially created as a solution for maintenance pathways under power lines, this product has been highly regarded in Japan for decades, designed to help people sustainably benefit from nature’s resources while preserving the environment.
Though we are a small company, we began offering NOBOROKKA in North America in 2024, driven by our desire to contribute to a richer, more fundamentally fulfilling world.
The latest model of NOBOROKKA embodies our corporate philosophy—“Contributing to energize the world, with a small but sure step.”—combining time-tested technical expertise with new design enhancements for even greater functionality.
Over the past 50 years, we have sold approximately 500,000 steps for mountain trails—based on countable quantities alone. We will continue to evolve as a company dedicated to providing a safe and secure footing environment for people.
