Building Investment (July - August 2022)

The Taiwan Excellence Pavilion for ARCHIDEX 2022
was located at Hall 1, and the booth was designed
to highlight multiple perspectives to create a lively
and interactive atmosphere which subtly but clearly
showcased the Taiwan Excellence award-winning
products. The focus this time was on kitchen and
sanitaryware, as well as environmentally friendly
building materials and equipment designed for modern
living. Featured products include ventilation fans, noncontact
activation devices, energy and environmentally
friendly devices, safety devices and other value-added
products.
According to Mr. James Chang, Representative at
the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Malaysia,
Taiwan is a global leader in water hardware. The industry
has been actively upgrading its capability through
intelligent manufacturing to further increase efficiency
and improve product lines. Many of the tasteful designs,
coupled with high-quality and innovative features, make
Taiwan’s products very popular in the EU and American
markets.
In addition to the live display, Taiwan Excellence
had also invited IDr Ooi Boon Seong, Deputy President
of the Malaysian Institute of Interior Designers (MIID),
to a dialogue with Taiwan manufacturers to discuss
and analyse design concepts and philosophy from a
professional perspective as well as talk about the use of
products in commercial applications.
Two online product launches were held, on 30 June
and 1 July, and received over 280 registered participants
including architects, designers, building material
wholesalers, tools retailers, office equipment suppliers
and other industry players.
ESG to Help Orang Asli
Taiwan Excellence also took the opportunity to highlight
corporate Environment, Social, and Governance
(ESG) initiative and worked with Malaysia’s local
environmental protection group EcoKnights to revamp a
Orang Asli school in Bukit Tadom by applying HUA TSAI’s
i-WaterProof liquid type additives, installing YZTEK’s
e+AutOff kitchen safety device, JYE LI AN’s sensor flush
kits; as well as JUSTIME’s three-stage hand shower.
Taiwan Excellence hopes the upgrading of Bukit Tadom
school in Selangor and its ecosystem can help improve
the school environment to become more pleasant and
comfortable for the students and teachers alike.
Mr. Johnson Chen, General Manager at Hua Tsai
Paints, was pleased to see 15 gallons of his company’s
Medusa i-WaterProof liquid type additives being used to
improve rural schools. He added that an invention is only
good when it is used for the betterment of humanity,
and seeing them in use for the Orang Asli is heartening.
Liu, who came to Malaysia to participate in the
exhibition expressed his aspiration to expand the ESG
to improve the lives of Malaysians and hoped that the
beneficiaries will enjoy the safety and convenience of
their improved living spaces.
