Eco-Products Exhibition 2008 was held from Dec 11th to Dec 13th .
Today, I’d like to share my short report from Eco-Products 2008.

This year, Eco-Products made progress to become one of green exhibition.
We found many booths with decrease environmental load; using reusable parts and LED lights.
Actually, I heard from one of organizer that the amount of waste from exhibits decreased from previous years.

The picture below is OJI PAPER GROUP’s booth, which is also featured in Eco-Products official website as one of the most environmentally-friendly booth. (Japanese website)

Almost all the parts are reusable material of papers, and it achieved zero-electricity consumption.

For the exhibition in the next year, introducing environmentally-friendly booths in official website would be an incentive for other exhibitors to attract participants with green minds.

Eco-Products Exhibition was the 10th anniversary this year.
Let’s focus on how it will embark on a new chapter for making the exhibition greener.
Green booth will be reflected this year at 2009 exhibition. I hope to see creative and more greener companies/organization displaying their products/services.
