**《 There is an electric world under the hole cover TPC Power On 》** **Theme Packaging｜Manhole Cover Mud Coaster** https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52082278410_96d3688d37_b.jpg **New materials, new experience** Manhole Cover Coaster 3.0 has gone through a full three years, from the research of material properties to the development of the process. In the past long days, it has finally come out at this moment. This time, the manhole cover coaster 3.0 has the shadow of the past coasters, but has its own characteristics. For the first time, up to 50% of the Sun Moon Lake bottom mud is used as the material to reproduce the classic appearance of the manhole cover, bringing the breath of nature back into your and my lives. Won the 2022 Product Design Category-Golden Dot Award! We chose the manhole cover, the best-selling work of Taipower Cultural and Creative, as the shape of the coaster, and experienced the same shape but different materials from fly ash clay, fly ash Cement, and bottom mud clay. This time there is still no dyeing, retaining the original color of the bottom mud, giving people the purest beauty of being untainted by the mud. This project is a collaboration with Shuanghao 2byWu&Chen, using the mud from Sun Moon Lake as the main material, combined with Taiwan's exquisite ceramic firing technology - Taihua Kiln, and retaining the original color of the material to reproduce the popular product manhole cover coaster. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52082025604_fbf000c4ee_b.jpg **[Sun Moon Lake mud manhole cover mud coaster]** Since the properties of bottom mud materials are different from those of general clay, past experience cannot be directly applied. Therefore, more than a hundred experiments were conducted during the development process to find a production method suitable for bottom mud materials. The new version of the Sun Moon Lake bottom mud manhole cover coaster has a different color than before. The bottom mud fired in a high-temperature kiln has a pink-orange hue, which is very different from the common reddish-brown clay and also different from the earlier version of the manhole cover coaster. The color of the base mud after firing gave the design team new inspiration and helped them create a brand new style for Taipower’s cultural and creative designs. The reason why it is difficult to handle the bottom mud is that it comes from the bottom of Sun Moon Lake. The raw material is mixed with impurities from the water and is viscous and difficult to use alone. Therefore, based on the experience of making coal ash, the mud is first lightly burned to homogenize the material, and then mixed into the clay for firing. The proportion used is 50%. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52082280760_be718d1fdb_b.jpg 2byWu&Chen, a double-good design company, uses the gray-blue of Taipower engineering uniforms and the pink-orange of the manhole cover coasters fired in a high-temperature kiln as the main colors of the packaging, giving the manhole cover coasters a new look. In addition to the eye-catching pink color scheme, newly designed small charged icons appear everywhere, outlining the subtle but indispensable charged elements in your and my daily lives. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52081792091_563007fecd_b.jpg ** TPCreative X Shuanghao2byWu&Chen** **The minimalist "trendy electric blue" packaging design pays tribute to Taipower's frontline engineers** "In the early stages of the design process, we visited the Sun Moon Lake Power Plant and many Taipower material warehouses, and discovered that each type of material was neatly and precisely categorized by Taipower employees, with color, appearance, and usage as sub-items. This also became the key inspiration for the minimalist trendy electric blue packaging design." In order to echo Taipower's cultural and creative recycling and sustainable brand spirit, Shuanghao Design developed an exclusive integrated packaging structure. After a piece of paper is folded with a delicate technique, it can provide a cushioning effect for the contents and reduce unnecessary cutting waste of outer packaging paper. https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/52082289705_fa308a9d23_b.jpg **"TPC Power On" series of products** https://www.pinkoi.com/product/8i7sJ6y5 (Sun Moon Lake Bottom Mud Manhole Cover Coaster - Single Entry) https://www.pinkoi.com/product/6AxGcetU (Sun Moon Lake mud manhole cover coaster and water cup set | Lightning model) https://www.pinkoi.com/product/fQhpamFF (Sun Moon Lake Bottom Mud Manhole Cover Coaster and Water Cup Set | Manhole Cover Model) https://www.pinkoi.com/product/U8rX6Jwe (Sun Moon Lake Bottom Mud Manhole Cover Coasters - 4 Pieces) https://www.pinkoi.com/product/LAVS3YsN (Hole-covered water cup, lightning water cup - four pieces) Specifications Product name: Manhole cover coaster Coaster material: Sun Moon Lake mud, coal ash, ceramic Coaster size: inner diameter about 90mm±2mm Origin: Taiwan Coaster manufacturing: Taihua Kiln Packaging design: Shuanghao2byWu&Chen Executing unit: Taipower Culture and Creative - The product includes 1 manhole cover mud coaster. - The mud and fly ash materials will undergo changes in color and porosity after being fired at high temperatures, which is normal. -All product packaging is printed with soy ink.
