ABOUT THE SHOW

Turning Taiwan's trash into a treasure. The EcoARK pavilion is hailed as a new benchmark for the future of green buildings and a spectacular showpiece for the Taipei International Flora Expo.

Adhering to the mantra of “Reduce, Reuse and Recycle”, the nine-storey high EcoARK Pavilion is built largely out of recycled plastic bottles. It weighs 50 percent less than a conventional building, yet it is strong enough to withstand the forces of nature, including fire!
