| Coming into the century called the "environment century", many activities that lead to a sustainable society are evolving among the corporations, governments, and consumers - showing a definite sign of the social life style alteration. This is also the departure from the 20th century-lifestyle, which represents mass-production, mass-consumption, and mass-disposition, and makes a new entry to the "environmental crisis-conscious" social life style. A new concept of a production - 'ecoproducts' (products and services that have less burden toward the environment.) development and marketing are definitely one of the driving forces of this change. Even the non-product manufacturing sectors have a great responsibility with this movement because it is necessary to take a consideration of ecoproducts within the logistic system, so the products can get to the consumers in the appropriate way. Substitution of products by services in the field of eco-service and eco-business - it can become a potential economy-booster of Japanese economy in the near future. The forth installation of Ecoproducts features several fields of ecoproducts - from the general consumer products (electronics, home appliances, office appliances, and automobiles) to the commercial products (materials, housing-related products, and energy-related products.) The exhibition also features many eco-services, and up-to-date eco-businesses. Through the exhibition of these products and services, there will be opportunities to communicate with corporate and government personnel that are responsible for the mass-transaction "Green Purchasing." Through the communication, new business opportunities and partnerships may be established, and possibly result the expansion of the market. Also, it will be a favorable place to acknowledge the activities to general consumers and young generations - deepening the communication between producers and consumers, and provides an actual place to educate. These communication aspects also include the main objective of this venue. Looking forward to your visit. Japan Environmental Management Association for Industry (JEMAI) Nihon Keizai Shimbun Inc. |
