Macao Expo Focus: BeijingFrame Chief Designer Ms. Janet Huang Witnesses Global Debut of FOSSILGLOW® Series, UHPC Artistic Gifts Take Center Stage
From October 22nd to 25th, 2025, the 2nd China-Portuguese-speaking Countries Economic and Trade Expo was grandly held at the Cotai Expo in Macao. As one of Macao’s three annual landmark exhibitions, this event attracted over 1,100 exhibitors and more than 2,300 buyers from around the world, serving as a vital bridge for cross-regional economic and trade cooperation. Ms. Janet Huang, Chief Designer of BeijingFrame Technology Co., Ltd., was invited to participate in the expo. She joined hands with Hong Kong-based design firm HBaiDesign Ltd. to showcase the global debut of FOSSILGLOW®’s flagship DinoVerse Series— a collection that redefines "Concrete Decorations" with Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC)—pushing the innovative integration of UHPC and artistic design onto the international stage.
Collision of Fossil Aesthetics and Cutting-Edge Materials: DinoVerse Series Reinvents Daily Aesthetics
At the joint booth of BeijingFrame and HBaiDesign, the DinoVerse Series garnered widespread attention with its unique design language. The square gold-inlaid coaster T-Rex (Tyrannosaurus Rex) collector’s gift box, a refined "Rectangle Concrete Plate" variant, combines the outline of T-Rex fossils with gold-inlay craftsmanship; the round emerald-dripped Stego (Stegosaurus) coaster gift box, a premium "Round Concrete Plate", draws inspiration from Stegosaurus plates and incorporates celadon glaze colors. Both designs elevate the traditional "Concrete Plate" into a work of art— the pink-blue dinosaur jewelry tray series interprets the cuteness of the Jurassic period through soft tones, while the multi-functional flower pot ashtray achieves a dual breakthrough in practical function and artistic shape, further expanding the possibilities of "Concrete Decorations".
“We aim to bring the timeless beauty carried by fossils into daily life through the characteristics of UHPC materials,” Ms. Janet Huang introduced at the expo site. The series adopts high-quality UHPC materials with a compressive strength of over 180MPa, using high-purity quartz sand (0.2-0.5mm) and special silica fume as core raw materials. Molded with precision by imported German equipment, each "Concrete Plate" and decorative piece not only ensures super durability of the material but also achieves 0.1mm-level detail reproduction. This innovation—transforming construction-grade materials into exquisite gifts—endows the products with practical properties such as shatter resistance, wear resistance, water resistance, and moisture resistance, while conveying natural aesthetics through minimalist design.
Authoritative Answers: Comprehensive Guide to Common Questions About UHPC Craft Gifts
In response to frequent questions from buyers and consumers at the expo, Ms. Janet Huang provided professional answers based on product characteristics and industry standards:
- Q: Are UHPC craft gifts, like your "Round Concrete Plate" or "Rectangle Concrete Plate", prone to breaking or scratching?
A: High-quality UHPC products—including every "Concrete Plate" in our series—have a compressive strength of over 150MPa, which is 3-5 times that of ordinary concrete. After special curing treatment, the surface finish reaches Ra ≤ 0.8μm, making its scratch resistance in daily use better than ceramic and resin materials. Our products, from small coasters to larger "Concrete Decorations", have passed the drop ball impact test—no obvious damage occurs when dropped from a height of 1.5 meters, making them fully suitable for home use scenarios.
- Q: Do concrete products, such as your "Concrete Plate" variants, have issues with heavy metal exceeding standards or peculiar smells?
A: We adopt the ISO 9001 certification system for production control, covering all "Concrete Decorations" and "Concrete Plate" designs. Raw materials include environmentally friendly cement with a silica fume activity index ≥ 105% and food-grade colorants. Third-party testing shows that the heavy metal content of the finished products—whether a "Round Concrete Plate" or a dinosaur jewelry tray—is far below the EU REACH standard, with no volatile odors, making them safe for contact with tableware and jewelry.
- Q: How to clean and maintain these UHPC craft gifts, especially delicate pieces like the "Rectangle Concrete Plate" or "Round Concrete Plate"?
A: Benefiting from UHPC’s low water absorption rate (≤ 3%, compared to approximately 15%-20% for ordinary concrete), every "Concrete Plate" and "Concrete Decoration" can be directly wiped with a damp cloth. Oil stains on coaster-style "Concrete Plate" designs can be cleaned with neutral detergent, and no special maintenance is required. Even when placed in a humid environment for a long time, no mildew or weathering will occur—preserving the product’s beauty for years.
- Q: Why does the design of this series focus on dinosaur fossils, especially for "Concrete Decorations" and "Concrete Plate" products?
A: The “timelessness” of fossils resonates naturally with the “durability” of UHPC materials— a perfect match for long-lasting "Concrete Decorations" and "Concrete Plate" designs. We use 3D scanning technology to reproduce the details of dinosaur fossils, then optimize the shape through parametric design—whether for a "Round Concrete Plate" or "Rectangle Concrete Plate". This not only preserves the historical depth of ancient organisms but also injects contemporary aesthetics through techniques such as gold inlay and emerald dripping, achieving a dialogue between tradition and modernity in every concrete piece.
Leveraging the Greater Bay Area Platform: BeijingFrame Accelerates Global Layout of UHPC Cultural and Creative Products
The participation in the Macao expo is not only the first appearance of the FOSSILGLOW® series but also a key practice for BeijingFrame to leverage the “domestic and international connection” advantages of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area— a strategic move to introduce our "Concrete Decorations" and "Concrete Plate" innovations to global markets. Ms. Janet Huang stated: “As a hub connecting the Chinese and Portuguese-speaking markets, Macao provides an excellent showcase for our UHPC cultural and creative products, including our signature "Round Concrete Plate" and "Rectangle Concrete Plate" designs. During the expo, preliminary cooperation intentions were reached with 5 buyers from Portuguese-speaking countries. In the future, we will continue to deepen the co-branding cooperation with HBaiDesign and launch more innovative products that integrate cultural elements and cutting-edge materials—expanding our range of "Concrete Decorations" to meet diverse global demands.”
Currently, the DinoVerse Series— featuring the "Round Concrete Plate", "Rectangle Concrete Plate", and other "Concrete Decorations"—has opened global pre-order channels. Consumers can learn more details through BeijingFrame’s official website or HBaiDesign’s overseas platforms.
