137th Canton Fair Phase 2 Highlights Quality Home Life Through Innovation and Green Thinking

GUANGZHOU, China, April 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Phase 2 of the 137th China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair), taking place from April 23 to 27, spans an impressive 515,000 square meters of exhibition space. With 10,313 participating companies, 273 more than the previous session, this phase centers on quality home life.

In every household, the kitchen stands as a cornerstone of comfort and function. Yet even small daily challenges, like managing kitchen waste, can disrupt the rhythm of home life. That's why even a simple product like a trash bin has become a beacon of innovation, with exhibitors at the Fair showcasing diverse solutions that cater to real consumer needs.

One standout comes from EKO Group Ltd., which exhibited a semi-round smart sensor bin that exemplifies the fusion of design and technology. This model features motion-activated, hands-free operation, a silent-closing lid, a removable inner bucket for easy cleaning, and a fingerprint-resistant stainless-steel body. Its sleek design reflects a growing consumer desire for functional products that elevate both hygiene and style in everyday spaces.

While some companies are enhancing waste management to improve the quality of home life, others are reimagining waste itself to elevate the essence of quality living. Intco Recycling Resources Co., Ltd., a high-tech manufacturer specializing in renewable resource recycling, is pioneering the transformation of recycled plastics into elegant, high-quality home décor. At their booth, buyers found photo frames, mirrors, table accessories, and other decorative items, all crafted entirely from recycled materials. These products not only reduce environmental impact but also prove that sustainability and sophisticated design can coexist.

The response from international buyers was enthusiastic. Du Mingze, Marketing Manager at Intco Recycling, noted that most inquiries on the first day came from European and Central Asian markets, reflecting a growing global appetite for eco-conscious living solutions.

From intelligent waste bins to recycled home items, Chinese companies at the Canton Fair are showing the world how innovation and environmental consciousness can go hand in hand. As the global demand for innovative and sustainable home products continues to grow, the Canton Fair demonstrates a powerful vision: a future where everyday living is elevated through design, enabled by technology, and sustained by green thinking.

137th Canton Fair Phase 2 Highlights Quality Home Life Through Innovation and Green Thinking

GUANGZHOU, China, Jan. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently, GAC's independently developed Quark E-Drive power domain control system has achieved the world's first dual certification for deeply integrated ASIL D functional safety and information security, accredited by DAkkS, Germany's national accreditation body. The certification was evaluated and issued by SGS-CSTC Standards Technical Services Co., Ltd. (SGS), a globally recognized certification authority.

ISO 26262 is the internationally recognized core standard for automotive functional safety. Within this framework, ASIL D represents the highest automotive safety integrity level, requiring near-zero tolerance for safety-critical failures. Achieving an ASIL D certification accredited by DAkkS signifies that the certified product meets the highest globally accepted standards for automotive safety.

The certified Quark E-Drive power domain control system has been in production use since February 2025, and is now deployed across multiple models under GAC's brands - HYPTEC and AION. As the industry's first electric drive power domain system based on deep integration using a single main control chip, the solution significantly reduces chip count, minimizes risks associated with chip-level failures, and boosts motor controller efficiency to as high as 99.9%. The certification confirms that GAC has completed the system's full product development lifecycle in strict compliance with ISO 26262:2018 functional safety and ISO/SAE 21434:2021 information security standards.

Throughout the project, GAC Technology Research Center worked closely with SGS experts, strengthening safety design across all development phases while ensuring engineering feasibility and an optimal user experience.

Zhao Hui, Vice President of SGS China, commented: "The successful certification highlights GAC's strong team and robust development systems. We are pleased to support the safety of the Quark E-Drive and look forward to closer collaboration."

This milestone represents a major breakthrough for GAC in e-drive safety and sets a new global benchmark for the intelligent electric vehicle industry.
