When the COVID pandemic hit, Miniwiz collaborated with the American Institute Taiwan (AIT) and launched the Modular Adaptable Convertible (MAC) hospital ward in 2020. Most of the materials used in the adaptable, convertible isolation wards are made from recycled aluminum.
In order to further reduce waste, Huang and his team have developed over 1,200 materials made from trash that can be used in construction projects, reported CNN. The company's international clients include Nike and Starbucks.
“We don’t need to create new things,” says Huang on CNN. “We just need to use our ingenuity, innovations, and our good heart and good brain to transform these existing materials into the next generation of products and buildings to power our economy.”
