This year Beijing Olympic Games has a “Green Olympics, High-tech Olympics, People’s Olympics” mission and Haier (海尔), the world’s fourth largest white goods (major household appliances) manufacturer, has provided more than 60 000 tree-hugging and energy-saving electronic products to BOCOG (Beijing Organizing Committee for the Games).

Haier has designed a complete line of green products for the Beijing Games. 31 categories of Haier products have been installed in all Olympic venues in Beijing and the co-host cities. The Olympic products are also on sale throughout China to meet the consumers’ need.

Haier has supplied all venues with 13,236 refrigerators, all CFC-free, with 5,353 using carbon dioxide as a natural refrigerant.
1,500 green washing machines have been installed in 18 laundries established by Haier in the Olympic Village and the Media Village to provide quick and efficient laundry services for all athletes, officials and journalists.

Mind-numbing numbers, eh.
