Our Logo & Its Meaning

Our company’s logo created by our founder in person with the image of “bamboo” (Chinese name: 竹). Bamboo has the title of “gentleman” among other plants. Famous Tang Dynasty (618-907) poet Bai Juyi summarized the merits of bamboo according to its characteristics: its deep root denotes resoluteness, straight stem represents honorability, its interior modesty and its clean exterior exemplifies chastity. Our whole team always firmly believe in the BAMBOO SPIRIT.
