Theory
More than 70 years ago, an in-depth study of water and its properties was conducted in Austria.
This study led to an ingenious discovery that a vortex increases the energy in water. Based on this
ground-breaking theory, SAISEIKO successfully developed its own patented Triple Spiral Chamber
water pipe, AVS.
When water passes through the triple spiral chamber pipe, the speed of water is accelerated. Due to
this speeding-up, the antibacterial and sterilizing power of the water increases.

AVS Benefit 1
Activation
Imagine filling a water bottle and shaking it. You will observe water molecules momentarily. When
water passes through AVS, this ‘shaking’ mechanism takes place via our Triple Spiral Chamber
design, making the water molecules smaller and enabling it to be more active, in other words
activated water.
Anti Bacterial
In general there are two types of Bacteria, aerobic and anaerobic. As the names indicate, aerobic
bacteria can only live and grow when there is oxygen and the opposite goes for anaerobic bacteria.
Most harmful bacteria are anaerobic. When water passes through AVS, the level of dissolved oxygen
concentration increases. As a result, these harmful bacteria die. At the same time, as the spiral
design pushes lighter substances such as oxygen and bacteria to the edge, this causes the harmful
anaerobic bacteria to die.

Red Rust Electron Black Rust Water Molecule
Reduction of Red Rust (Iron Oxide)
The water passing through AVS is activated and more negative electrons are created. When the
negative electrons touch red rust, they become black rust. This is simply the result of a chemical
reaction. Once it is converted into black rust it will never revert back to iron oxide. Cleaner pipes
mean healthier water supplies for your homes and buildings.

AVS Test Result 1
Date: October, 2004
Country: Japan
Location: Spa
A legionella detection test was conducted
at a public hot spring in Japan, which is
used by 3,000 people per month.
Although 420 CFU/100ml of legionella was
found before the installation, one week
later this number was less than 10.
Since then, the number has remained
below 10. This is the lowest level the
bacteria detector can measure.

AVS Test Result 1
Date: April, 2005
Country: Japan
Surface activation power increases water’s
dispersing ability. This means that the
greater the dispersing power in the water,
the easier it is to wash, lather up and
remove dirt from the pores.
This test result shows that 76% more salad
oil dissolved into AVS treated water
compared to normal tap water.

Ceramic Technology
According to historians, ancient civilisations used ceramic ware such as clay pots to keep their food
fresh. In particular, they kept water and oil in ceramic ware when there was no refrigeration
available to preserve the quality and freshness of the water.
This wisdom of our ancestors led us to develop our original ceramic technology and to produce high
quality functional ceramic balls made with all natural minerals.
BA Balls (black) SE Balls (brown)
As these balls contain natural minerals, they both generate Far Infrared Rays (FIR) and ionize water.
In addition, the BA balls have an anti-bacterial function. This amazing 100% natural product is an
example of the cutting-edge technology that represents SAISEIKO and our values.
10
Combination
SEM was developed as a result of
combining the triple chamber
vortex (AVS) and SAISEIKO ceramic
balls.
Tap water first passes through the
AVS and then through the ceramic
balls.
The tap water is activated and the
number of bacteria reduced by the
AVS. This processed water is
further activated and ionized by
the ceramic balls. When tap water
is put through an SEM, it is treated
twice and comes out as high quality
water. This ground breaking
innovative technology does not
require any consumables,
chemicals or power to treat water.

SEM Test Result
The SEM water activator has been installed in various places such as hospitals, restaurants, spas and
a farmhouse.
A nursing home in Hokkaido, Japan
Ms Chieko Matsuyama, the curator of a nursing home, had concerns about the
quality of the water and so she installed SAISEIKO Water Activator in 2005. “We
have received good feedback from residents since the water activator was
installed. Feedback includes, “Recovery from athlete’s foot.” “Bathing water
became softer.” “Meals became more delicious.” etc. Moreover, our staff are
grateful that they have recovered from their skin problems. Taking care of the
residents became easier, especially when giving baths.
A clinic in Hokkaido, Japan
“A boy with atopic dermatitis makes a recovery.”
Mr Mitsuaki Matoba, a chief director of the clinic, installed a SAISEIKO SEM Water Activator to test in
2004.
“After the water activator was installed, the problem of reddish water was quickly solved and cutting
the existing water pipe showed that the red rust had turned black. Currently, we don’t have any
odour or slime problems, and what’s more my son, who has had atopic dermatitis all of his life has
recovered from this skin problem.”

A hospital in Hokkaido, Japan
“Saved us from paying huge bills for repair”
Mr Masao Sekimoto, who is an office manager at the hospital, installed
SAISEIKO SEM Water Activator in 2005.
“We have had terrible reddish water problems, and a construction
company told us that it would cost around 150,000,000 yen to replace
all the water pipes. While trying to find the ideal solution to this issue,
we were told about a clinic that had been testing a SAISEIKO SEM
Water Activator. We visited this clinic to find out how it worked. We
could then verify its performance and the good effect that had on their
system and we decided to install the water activator instead of
replacing the water pipes. We therefore saved a great deal of money.”
A hospital in Hokkaido, Japan
SEM3000 was installed where cucumbers were planted.
Result: Increased yield. (September was usually the last month for
harvesting the cucumbers, but this time they were still being harvested
in October). Better quality. Less damage by vermin.

Red rust changed to black rust within six months.
When red rust clogs a water pipe, it causes various
problems. In the worst cases, it is necessary to
rebuild whole buildings and it has become a
serious issue as far as increased industrial waste is
concerned. By solving this problem, SEM Water
Activator (manufactured by SAISEIKO) has
become the focus of public attention, because red
rust changed to black rust within 6 months.
Florence Mi Mi, one of the distributors of
SAISEIKO, requested a lab test in November 2005,
and the result was confirmed and certified.

Ionic Shower Head
Cera Mild Cera Elite
Cera Bloom Cera Salon
There are 4 models and all of them contain BA and SE balls. Water passing through the shower
heads becomes softer due to Far Infrared effect, which breaks down water clusters. Smaller water
clusters can easily enter pores and remove dirt while moisturizing the skin more effectively. In
addition, water passing through the balls is ionized and the harmful effect of substances, such as
residual chlorine, is reduced.
15
Ionic Shower Head
Cera Mild and Cera Bloom include an Air-
Water Mixture (AWM) feature. Water and air
are rapidly mixed making the water more
activated and doubling its cleansing power. In
addition, because air is mixed with the water
up to 30% less water is used.
Cera Elite comes with three shower settings;
Mist, Massage and Normal. Mist is the most
popular mode and it maximizes the negative
ion effect.
16
Cera Feedback
Although our ceramic balls are not a medical product, we have received positive feedback from many
customers who have noticed an improvement in their skin conditions, for example Eczema and other skin
irritations. The following photographs were received from a hair stylist in Japan. Her hands were in very
bad condition due to the fact that she uses chemicals every day. As the pictures below show, her skin
condition has gradually improved since she started to use a Cera Shower head.
Before 3 months later 6 months later
People who have skin problems are often sensitive to water quality. Cera shower heads improve the
quality of the water and may alleviate these conditions.
The owner of a New York hair salon tested our shower head in his salon. He and his stylists noticed
the benefits immediately and the following day he ordered Cera Shower heads for all the wash
basins. We have received a great deal of positive feedback regarding improved skin and hair
condition. Therefore we have confidence in SSK ceramic technology.

Saiseiko ball
The patented Saiseiko ball (SSK Ball) contains anti-bacterial ceramic balls (BA balls) which kill most
bacteria within 9 hours. It is designed to float on water. Place the SSK Ball into a bathtub, pool or water
tank to keep the water safe and fresh. The SSK Ball can be used in spas, pools and Jacuzzis as well as in
your own bathroom. It can also be used in any stagnant water including rainwater harvesting systems.
Legionella is a harmful and deadly type of bacteria. One incident of a fatal outbreak of legionella
occurred in Virginia, USA in 1996 as a result of untreated stagnant water from the demonstration Jacuzzi
in a department store. There was also a case of legionella-related deaths of a number of US officials in
Philadelphia in 1976.
When tested in our laboratory, legionella was completely killed within 9 hours.

Cooking Stone
The electricity or gas used in homes and restaurants on a
daily basis can be expensive these days. Sometimes this
cost forces restaurants to increase their prices or in
extreme cases they may need to close down.
Naturally good. Naturally wholesome. Naturally healthy.
The Saiseiko Cooking Stone will revolutionise the way we
cook and help us to decrease our energy consumption.
When it is placed in water, it helps the water to boil more
quickly and to maintain a high temperature, thus saving
energy and cost. It can also be used to keep the
temperature high when frying. It is also effective when
cooking frozen food. The Cooking Stone acts as a catalyst
which is said to bring out the natural goodness in food. It
is made of 100% natural materials.
