CEBU Bionic Builder Supply Inc. sees a huge market for eco-friendly and power efficient products as more consumers turn to green innovations to help save the environment.

Cebu Bionic executive vice president for operations Bernard Vonn Sia said Cebu firms, whether big or small, have considered installing eco-friendly systems in their facilities and businesses not only to cut down operating costs but as part of corporate responsibility programs in lessening CO2 emissions.

Demand for green products is accelerating. Companies now are not only concerned about making money but also in making positive impact to the environment, said Sia.

He, however, noted that despite the growing awareness, there is still that market perception that going green requires huge capital outlay.

Green products require much capital expense because of innovation and technology. But with the growing demand, there are products now in the market that dont require that much investments but has features proven to reduce power costs and are eco-friendly, said Sia.

Cebu Bionic unveiled last Wednesday its five new energy-saving and eco-friendly products that can bring down power consumption tremendously.

These products include: the industrial and commercial fan called Big Ass Fan; an anti-heat solution-Nano-Coat; a daylighting systems called Solatube; Smart Plugs, a USB-wall socket-charger, and HCGs Home Automation System, which controls household appliances, lighting system technologically, through mobile device like tablet, smart phones.

We are introducing these products to Cebu because of the robust developments here. But while the demand of green products are growing here, we can see that the market is only limited to solar-based products, said Sia.
