Rooting
The Company Name Reflects Responsibility Towards Business and Environment
We are the first design company in Taiwan to incorporate circular design in our name. The Green Box serves as a container that integrates the capabilities of circular design. We simplify unnecessary communication costs in design and define 12 types of circular design capabilities, allowing businesses to find all the designs needed for circular transformation.

Growth
Talent Program for Circular Thinking
We believe that all design capabilities can realize their potential in the circular economy and become Leafer. We participate in training and become the external facilitation team for the Circular Taiwan Foundation, and we began developing educational methods in circular design, completing our first BeLeafer intern in 2023.
Future
Expansion
Establishing Taiwan as a Hub for Circular Design
Taiwan is an island nation with limited resources, political instability, and diverse cultures, which leads to chaotic business development. However, adversity can inspire creativity. Leafer will collaborate with Taiwanese enterprises to look globally, ensuring achievements that meet the needs of the Taiwanese market while establishing a presence in the global market.
