Tweet

 

It’s no denying that BLACKPINK has taken the world by storm with their unbelievable talent, inimitable style, and unique charisma. They have stolen the hearts of millions of fans from all parts of the globe, and the Philippines is no exception, with Filipino BLINKs always eager for new entertainment from their favourite group. Arguably the most dedicated K-Pop fans out there, Filipino BLINKs are in for a treat as Netflix brings them “BLACKPINK: LIGHT UP THE SKY” premiering on October 14.

Since their debut in August 2016, BLACKPINK has become the highest-charting female K-pop group of all time with their innovative music, eye-popping music videos and internet-breaking fashion concepts. BLACKPINK: LIGHT UP THE SKY serves up the never-before-seen moments that BLACKPINK’s global fandom — known as “BLINKs” — have been craving for years.

As BLACKPINK continues reaching new heights in their career — from headlining sold-out world tours to becoming the first female Korean group to perform at Coachella — each member reflects on the ups and downs of fame and the long, often challenging journey that brought them to worldwide success. BLACKPINK: LIGHT UP THE SKY reveals the relatable, unfiltered sides of the foursome, who continue to be a leading force in expanding K-pop’s popularity, proving that music knows no borders or language barriers.

Directed by Caroline Suh (Netflix’s “Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat”), the documentary goes deep with each of BLACKPINK’s four members: Jisoo, the whip-smart unnie (“big sister”) of the group with a quirky sense of humor; Jennie, the rapper whose fierce onstage persona contrasts with her soft-spoken nature; Rosé, the dulcet-voiced Australian coming into her own as a singer-songwriter; and Lisa, the dancing queen whose spark plug personality never fails to make her bandmates laugh.

Stream the world premiere of Netflix’s BLACKPINK: LIGHT UP THE SKY on October 14 best enjoyed through Globe, and relive Blackpink’s incredible journey to becoming arguably South Korea’s most popular girl group.

Here’s why you should get a Beko refrigerator

Tweet

Good health starts with nutrition. We are what we eat. We buy and consume more fruits and vegetables these days because these contain vitamins and minerals that are good for our health. But have you noticed that after a few days in the fridge, these fruits and veggies start to look sad and wilted? They also begin to lose the nutrients that are important in boosting the immune system and improving our general wellbeing.

Healthier and more effective food storage is what we need at a time like this as we explore how to improve our daily routines in the “new normal” and pack the food we eat with vitamins and antioxidants to stay healthy and avoid illnesses.

Our needs and requirements have changed. Most of us now buy food in bulk to lessen the number of times we go out to shop so the fruits and veggies in the fridge need to stay fresh longer. 

For refrigerators, we need one with added features that not many brands in the market have.

Beko Pilipinas’ world-class refrigerators are the perfect fit for the “new normal.” The company strongly believes in making products equipped with technologies that help improve the wellbeing of today’s consumers. As an appliance brand, Beko is committed to doing all they can to make people’s lives more convenient and healthier

Here are the five reasons to buy a Beko refrigerator: 

1. Two separate cooling systems and temperature controlled compartment

Beko’s NeoFrost Dual Cooling technology maintains optimum cooling conditions that helps food stay fresh for longer. With having two separate cooling systems, high humidity is maintained in the fridge while the freezer stays dry and frost free. It also prevents odour transfer in between the compartments and keeps the quality of the air inside at maximum levels.

The Everfresh+ Technology is a special crisper that ensures ideal humidity and temperature to keep fruits and vegetables crisp and fresh three times longer. This means reduced waste and lesser trips to the supermarket.

2. Neutralizes bacteria

There's nothing worse than opening the refrigerator door and smelling something that’s rotting. Beko’s Ionguard Technology is an odor removal technology that circulates negative ions to neutralize bacteria and particles that cause bad odor. Thanks to a carbon filter, Active Odour Filter removes odors and bacteria from the cool air circulated in your fridge, keeping all your food smelling nice and fresh. 

3. Highly efficient and durable compressor motor. 

If your fridge is a humming, gurgling energy hog, it’s time to make the switch. Beko’s ProSmart Inverter Compressor provides faster cooling with less energy and four times quieter operation than average refrigerator compressors. This allows the fridge to adapt to temperature fluctuations quicker, keeps food fresh longer and helps you save on your energy bills.

4. Greenhouse-like effect

The Active Fresh Blue Light in the Beko crisper helps fruit and vegetables to continue with the photosynthesis process even while in the fridge. It’s almost like having a greenhouse in the refrigerator where it continues prolonging the storage life of fresh fruit and vegetables while maintaining their natural flavours and nutritional elements

5. Form and function

Beko has a wide range of models, sizes, and colors to suit any kitchen style so you are sure to find the perfect match for your home with each refrigerator designed along clean and minimal lines. 

ABOUT BEKO

Beko is the global home appliances brand of the Arçelik Group and belongs to the Koç Holding, one of the largest conglomerates in Europe. The brand has been in the Philippine Market for five years and established its own subsidiary named Beko Pilipinas Corporation.  Beko products are currently available in select All Home, Asian Home, Robinsons Appliances Stores, SM Appliance Centers and Lazada.

Tweet

Royal Canin PH launches its rewards program mobile application, Royal Canin Club, which aims to bring credible information and exclusive brand deals and content to pet owners 

If you’re a loving pet owner stuck in quarantine, chances are you’ve resorted to various online sources to tend to your pet’s needs. All pet parents are known to go a long way for their beloved, loyal pets to ensure they get the right nutrition and care they deserve.

Leading and trusted pet care brand Royal Canin Philippines understands this unique bond between pets and their parents and celebrates this through the launch of their rewards program mobile application, Royal Canin Club. The app is an easy-to-use, system that aims to aid doting pet owners in keeping their furry babies delighted and healthy.

Now available on the iOS App Store and Google Play Store, the Royal Canin Club app provides pet owners with exclusive access to credible pet care information as well as Royal Canin products and exclusive promos. In line with the brand’s thrust of providing the best-tailored nutrition for pets, the app is a complementary tool for both new and loyal Royal Canin patrons who strive only for the best, loving experience for their furry friends.

As soon as one downloads the app and completes registration, Royal Canin already rewards pet owners with an awesome gift set and vouchers, whether they are loyal users or new to the brand.

Pet owners will also get to enjoy the Royal Canin e-learning tool, with informative and engaging content on maintaining pets’ wellbeing: proper diet and nutrition, digestive health, neonatal to ageing care, skin and coat care, training, and understanding pet behavior. Users also get access to exciting app features such as pet quizzes, store locators for partner establishments, and first dibs to sale and promotion announcements from Royal Canin. Through the application, Filipino pet owners will have access to an exclusive store finder feature that can connect them to the nearest pet store, veterinary clinics, and pet breeders at the utmost convenience. 

The app is a product of Royal Canin’s 50 years of passion for pets’ health and wellbeing, five decades of understanding each pet’s unique needs and care that match their physical and emotional requirements. 

“The Royal Canin Club app aims to be a trusted partner of pet owners who want nothing but the best for their cats and dogs. Through the app, we hope to provide guidance to discerning pet owners with accurate and relevant information about caring for their pets, all while they earn redeemable points for when they engage with the app’s activities,” says Adriann Eusebio, Royal Canin Philippines’ Country Director.

The app is expected to appeal to a huge group of the public, especially with the growing number of pet ownership in the country. According to Euromonitor International, pet care in the Philippines continues to improve in performance, which can be further attributed to the increasing popularity of dogs as pets, growing sales of pet healthcare products, and a greater propensity for owners to feed dogs with packaged food. 

The global pet care e-commerce market size is also expected to grow owing to the increasing usage around the world, according to a Grand View Research, Inc.’s study.  Additionally, Asia Pacific is expected to witness a CAGR growth of around 10% due to rising pet adoption and the growing economy of the region. 

“Over the years we have committed to attending to the unique needs of dogs and cats. Our passion for pet health continues to drive us to introduce new products and innovative solutions that foster a healthier environment, all while working with the best pet shops, veterinarians, and breeders around. We look forward to the positive impact that the Royal Canin Club app will have on our beloved pets here in the country,” Eusebio remarks.

The Royal Canin Club app can be downloaded from the iOS App Store and Google Play Store, free of charge. For more product news, promotions, and information on special giveaway contests, one may follow Royal Canin Philippines on its social media pages.

The five Taiwan Excellence Award winners were EPED’s real-time imaging system, Saturn Imaging’s all-in-one digital solution for implantation, Dentmate’s innovative LED light solution for dentistry, Young Optics’ 3D printer with outstanding optical technology, and DHEF’s Endodontic Handpiece and dental imaging scanner. The event was jointly organized by the Taiwan External Trade Development Council (TAITRA), Taiwan’s foremost trade promotion body, and the Bureau of Foreign Trade, Ministry of Economic Affairs.

According to the latest report by the World Health Organization (WHO), 30 percent of elderly people at age 65 and up in the world are toothless; thus, the demand for oral care products will continue to increase.

It is estimated that the global dental implant market demand will reach its peak in 2026, where business opportunities are expected to reach about US$570 billion. Dental materials made in Taiwan cover 94 percent of the entire global dentistry product line, and the output value is expected to reach US$10 billion by 2025. These figures clearly show the vaunted manufacturing power and might of Taiwan in this growing industry. 

“The existing medical environment, advanced health insurance data system and electronic and automated mechanical integration technology are the great assets in this field. Over the past decade, products from Taiwan have shown the world its innovative and pioneering power and technological advancements in the dental industry.” said Leonor Lin, President and CEO of TAITRA, at this online product launch campaign.

As a trusted world partner, Taiwan Excellence selected products that best represent the image of Taiwan’s dental material and product industry. 

During the product launch, the award-winning and leading company in the field of minimally invasive surgery EPED presented IRIS and SimEx, which provides super flexible and exceptionally customized solutions in dental training as well as dental impressions and dental curriculum. Saturn Imaging, which specializes in 3D diagnosis and implant planning software, on the other hand, showcased its ImplantMax that provides an all-in-one solution for guided implantology, ranging from digital treatment planning, surgical guide fabrication, to surgical guide verification. The all-in-one approach streamlines guided implantology and greatly increases the throughput of digital technology in implantation practice.

Dentmate, a top dental equipment provider, for its part, offered its Dental Curing Light and Headlight that is not only lightweight but also easy to operate. Meanwhile, Young Optics, which is engaged in research, design, manufacture and sales of optical components, presented its Digital Light Processing 3D Printer that offers stable printing materials with constant parameters where 12 models can be printed within 3 hours to meet dentists’ needs more efficiently. Finally, DHEF, one of Taiwan’s leading digital dental equipment makers, presented the Digirex PSP Scanner that packs a powerful image processing system into a small machine, and its Endomax Brite that helps improve visibility and safety for root canal treatments.

All of these innovative and reliable products provide better care for users and enable long-term care facilities in order to save time, costs and improve services. Taiwanese companies are also confident in providing the best products for global users to fulfill their unique and discriminating demand.

The last activity of Taiwan Excellence Healthcare Train series, the “Taiwan - ASEAN Medical Device and Innovation Forum,” will be held on October 16, 2020 where participating companies will share Taiwan’s latest medical technologies.
