Eco-Products 2010
TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nikkei Inc., Japan's leading media source for domestic economic information, and the Japan Environmental Management Association for Industry, which supports business efforts for the environment, are sponsoring Japan's largest environmental exhibition, Eco-Products 2010, for three days from Thursday, December 9th through Saturday, December 11th, at Tokyo Big Sight in Tokyo's Ariake.
The Eco-Products Exhibition began in 1999, taking as its theme the sharing and promotion of products and services that are kind on the environment; this year we're marking our 12th year. There are 745 companies and organizations participating and we expect to have 185,000 visitors over the three-day period, making it the largest environmental exhibition in Japan.
The exhibition displays eco-products, services and environmental technologies across a broad spectrum of fields: from home appliances and daily use items, to automobiles, energy and chemical applications, paper and other materials, housing and construction, food products, containers and wrapping materials, stationery and office equipment, and financial services.
There are also displays highlighting various efforts in domestic environmental policy, as well as local governments' environmental business promotional efforts. For business people there is leading-edge information on environmental businesses, and for the general public there are hints about how to start living a greener lifestyle.
In addition to the CSR activities of the exhibiting companies, the activities of the environment-based NGOs and NPOs and civic organizations, and the introduction of environmental policies of the national and local governments, we also admit annually 20,000 elementary and middle school students to the exhibition, where they can come and learn about the environment. With elements of both a trade show and a show for the public, this exhibition attracts attention globally as a truly unique event.
As an opportunity to learn more about the movements in environmental activities and environmental technologies within Japan, we hope you will come and cover the exhibition.
