See the 2-in-1 New Giftionery

Blast off 2009 with the New consolidated Giftionery Taipei which doubles up the two seasonal events into one mega-sourcing hub. A sampling of what’s to come can be gain by looking at the Taipei Int’l Gift & Stationery Autumn Show that wrapped up Oct. 26, 2008.

Buyers know this is the best place in Asia to come to platform new products under while exhibitors use it to enter diverse and scattered regional markets of Taiwan. Visitors from overseas stated how they were also impressed by quality Taiwan-made giftware and innovative ideas. But the most interest was generated by the “Green & Healthy Products Area” and the “quality first” displays. Without a doubt Green design and environmental-friendly material has become the new themes for Taipei Giftionery.

Buyers Buy the Show for Quality at Reasonable Prices

With the long-term support of local Taiwan suppliers, Giftionery Taipei has moved onto the world stage. Taiwan manufacturers are turning on quality, reliability, and design to face off a deluge of cheap-price suppliers from newly emerging countries.

Long-time show participant King Her Feng Industrial pointed out that many buyers fly in for the show for the better class of products found here. Youngton Industries added that Taiwan suppliers have huge profit potential since their quality and reasonable pricing lets them slip into the expensive top quality markets of Japan.

The coming years will reflect Taiwan’s endeavor to consolidate its strengths to create and promote Taiwan-made brands and suppliers for the international market. And the show success thus far has won over such firms as Linco, Brave Chemical Company, and OK Stationery Manufacturing who all consider Giftionery Taipei to be the best platform to showcase their new products, heighten their profiles, and promote brand awareness.

Jye Yeu Technology, an annual participant in Giftonery Taipei, has great licensing experience with giants like Disney Hong Kong and Microsoft. It uses this show to target fresh clients. There’s also Uni-paragon Enterprises which displays its creative towel cakes. Then there’s Taiwan’s major balloon suppler, Tailloon Balloons who have already signed up for the new unified Giftionery Taipei 2009.

New Chaps at New Giftionery!

Many new local exhibitors are also upbeat on new business coming to the show. D-Star Int’l is betting on this event as its main channel to reach potential Taiwan and international buyers. Even Toplay Inc who exhibited at TAITRONICS even received significant business enquiries from show exhibitor National Palace Museum. Other participants include ZyXEL Communications, CPC Corporation and Ministry of Finance at Giftionery Taipei 2008. Youngton Industries is also looking forward to harvesting many contracts from Taiwan enterprises at Giftionery Taipei 2009.

The Greening the Gift

In this new age eco-concern means progress and for this show it also represents the future. That’s why Giftionery Taipei is building new opportunity and business with green & health themes. Such green suppliers include Power In Industrial who manufactured a range of stationeries made of PLA plastic material (that’s extracted from corn), meanwhile, iDigit International also display many PLA-based hang bags at the showground. Greenpaper Design has dedicated itself for years to designing in eco-friendly environmental-friendly wrapping bags.  And in spite of it adopting stone materials as the raw material for paper sheet making and its use of soy ink printing, the whole production process complies with international green guide lines.
Sunny Fiber Industrial’s eco bags give the wrap on quality and safe materials by using Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDC) to ensure complete recyclable, sustainable products without the use of harsh chemicals.   

And with this comes charcoal products with the CAS logo. These health promoting items have become hot items at past shows and are growing in popularity. Promoters of this product include Taiwan Paiho, Chun-Dao, Taiwan Bamboo Coal, Da-Pu Bamboo and many other suppliers have transformed this Taiwan local raw material into everything from underwear, socks, inner soles, sleeping ware, protection accessories, bamboo cups, tobacco pipes and other mobile accessories.

DryTech Corporation joins the green line-up with its reusable SiO2 which is used in dehumidifiers and helps prevent the use of chemicals which are used in other traditional dehumidifiers. Other green and health products at the show include solar power backpacks, healthy ear plugs, green tableware and many more items.  

The folks at Giftionery Taipei 2009 are excited by the vast new changes coming to next year’s show that will change the world forever with innovative fresh designs, ideas and products.
