Taiwan Green Trade Project Office Spotlights the Cutting Edge in Green
Solutions, Designed to International Environmental Standards
TAIWAN, March 3, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- In recent years, countries all
around the world have tried to make going green a goal to elevate
competitiveness, and to raise soft power in green through
participating in international exhibitions with magnificent designs.
However, decoration and packaging in an exhibition can leave a sizable
footprint on the planet. Taiwan's green trade project office recently
introduced "Taiwan Green Products Demo House," which is essentially an
environmentally friendly, reusable exhibition show booth with all its
state-of-the-art materials certified by international and domestic
green standards. The demo house, built entirely with green materials,
is flexible in assembling and disassembling like Lego bricks. In
addition, it cuts waste without sacrificing style.

Taiwan Green Products Demo House embodies some of Taiwan's best green
ideas and products. All materials and items used, including the
flooring, display window, energy-saving devices, and intelligent
control systems, are manufactured in Taiwan. For example, the LED
dimmer can be operated by a smart phone or computer. By simply swiping
the key card, this smart interactive device is able to control the
door, the lighting, the air conditioner, the gas valve, many other
electronic appliances, and even the air quality.
"Some manufacturers might feel that adopting environmental practices
or integrating environmental compliance into product development is
costly. But an increasing number of Taiwanese companies have come to
realize that such investment is profitable, can create new
opportunities, and drive competitiveness," says GTPO deputy director
Lih-Chyi Wen. "Taiwan is well positioned to engage in green trade as
it has developed related technologies, products and services to an
international standard."
With the Taiwan Green Products Demo House, exhibitors can now gain big
savings on exhibition costs and also participate in worldwide
exhibitions in a much more environmentally friendly way. After 2 years
of participation and preparation, GTPO presents Taiwan Green Products
Demo House at Ecobuild 2014, March 4-6, in London Excel. For this
exhibition, GTPO incorporates 14 Taiwanese companies displaying a
comprehensive range of products to promote a greener, smarter, and
healthier living experience. In the years to come, GTPO also plans to
feature various themes for different markets and exhibitions.
In addition to presenting quality green products to the world, GTPO
highlights one of its main missions of becoming "Your one stop link to
Taiwan's green products and services." GTPO helps introduce best
quality and pricing through excusive relationships with top
manufacturers in Taiwan. Since 2010, the office has been conducting
ongoing and extensive benchmarking to select high-end, competitive
suppliers for its portfolio. The online products guild, Taiwan Eco
Products Directory, features over 400 green products, all with
international or domestic green certificates. Taiwan has a strong
background in manufacturing and information technology. Flexibility,
economy, and quality are also outstanding features of Taiwanese
companies. It will be very helpful for international sectors looking
for partners adept in providing customized smart and green solutions.
