Showcasing Achievements in Sustainable Design and Design Enterprise Development

The Korea Institute of Design Promotion (KIDP) said it will operate a joint pavilion with six design companies participating in its Sustainable Design Support Program and Design Enterprise Development Program at the 2026 Korea ESG Eco-Friendly Fair, which opens on October 21 at COEX in Gangnam-gu, Seoul.


The Sustainable Design Support Program supports the development of sustainable products and services, including through the use of eco-friendly materials and resource recycling. The Design Enterprise Development Program supports design companies from product and service development through commercialization, helping them explore new business areas beyond design consulting.


The joint pavilion was organized to showcase the product development achievements of design companies under the two programs, promote the industrial value of sustainable design, and help participating companies explore new sales channels and create business opportunities.

The Design Enterprise Development Program will exhibit the achievements of Revelop's "REmoRE Canele Stool," Fig Lab's "Woodpecker's Forest Pencil Holder," and Seol Lab's "Hair Onsha." Each company will demonstrate the product competitiveness and market potential built on its design and product development capabilities.

We will continue to provide a range of support to help outstanding design companies identify new business opportunities and strengthen their competitiveness in the market."
