2. Our commitment to the environment comes naturally to us. We
believe that the best place we can all begin to conserve and
protect our natural resources is in our own backyard.
We are continuing to explore and introduce important initiatives
that will help the planet. Our commitment will continue as we
develop new ways to improve everything we touch – from the
facilities we design, to industrial plantings, to driving economic
development.
The KPC Group is built on the tenets of the Triple Bottom Line
whose foundation is based on the well-being of the people and
communities where the company conducts its business
(people), sound and sustainable environmental practices
(planet), and sterling financial performance (profit).
Our global objectives are to:
reduce the pressure on the world’s natural forests by providing
alternative fiber and products
drive change from a petroleum-based society to a bio-based
society
create an industry that is carbon negative, off-grid and that
follows the principles of the International Living Future
Institute.

Our bamboo plastic composite from bamboo powder
content, particle size, type of coupling agent, etc. The
bamboo-plastic composite is made of extrusion and
injection molding process. Results show: when bamboo
powder content is 30%, impacting strength of the
material is the highest; the bamboo-plastic composite
which made of Silane and MAPE has higher impacting
strength than others; when PP: HDPE = 2:3, the
impacting strength of the bamboo-plastic composite is
the highest. Compared with these factors, the coupling
agent on impacting strength is the most obvious
influence.

40. Bamboo Wind Turbine and Utility
First implementation of this technology was an innovative segmented bamboo fiber Posts
composite mast that can be assembled on-site during the wind turbine installation
and can provide a number of short and long term benefits:
Durability: organic fiber composites actually have a longer lifetime and do not
require maintenance (such as painting and corrosion protection). They also have
various mechanical advantages such a better fatigue resistance.
Significant weight reduction of >40% over steel means that, for example, each of
our prototype mast segments weighs less than 30kg; therefore the segments can be
easily handled and transported by two installers, supporting ease and efficiency of
installation.
A greener and more appealing product: Using carbon-sequestering organic fibers
and ecological resins, our towers are actually carbon-negative and can be recycled.
The more appealing and less industrial looking product design - which can have
natural or painted finished - blends better into the typical environment for small and
medium size on-shore turbines.
Cost savings: The prototype bamboo composite mast has been costed on par with
comparable steel masts at current prices (as of 2012). However, steel prices show a
long-term upwards trend; small turbine manufacturers were already hit hard in 2008
from a doubling of steel prices. By replacing considerable amounts of steel with
organic fiber composite, we reduce the impact of such price rises.
Sustainability: Organic fibers can be sourced from various locations, and do not only
support the environment, but also local communities. We have developed small and
medium volume manufacturing processes that can be implemented in small
workshops and with regional proximity to the target markets.
41. Bamboo Wind Turbine Blades
Recently, a large number of scientists and manufactures Bamboo Polymer
shown their interests on natural fiber reinforced composites. Blades
Not only because of the relative lower cost, but also with
better renewability. Longer lasting than
conventional carbon

The operation load of bamboo laminate is Wind Turbine technology
lower than UD-glass fiber composite, but for India
better than Balsa wood which is the other
common used nature composite.

42. Bamboo Wind Turbine Street Light
Bamboo Street Light, the concept streetlight will cut the use
of conventional electricity. So, it comes equipped with a small
wind turbine integrated into the top of the light.
During the day, the Bamboo Eco Street Light harnesses wind
energy and stores it in an underground battery. When it gets
dark, the stored electricity can be used to power the light. The
specially designed turbines can rotate to any direction to
maximize power generation. It comes embedded with
intelligent light sensors that control any minor fluctuations in
daylight, and accordingly, turn the streetlight off and on when
required. Moreover, it flaunts low voltage LEDs to disperse
the light.
