Health care products developed by Lihe (Pingtan) Biological Technology Co received popular recognition at the 14th China Cross-Straits Technology and Projects Fair, or 618 Fair for short, which was launched on June 18, according to ptnet.cn.

Moving to Taiwan Innovation Park of Pingtan in March this year, the Taiwan-funded company became the first of its kind in the park dedicated to the research and development of health care products. The company produces a range of items from orthopedic pillows to mosquito repellent.

"We started operation in May this year and displayed our products at the 618 Fair, and we got positive feedback from locals," said Li Chunxing, general manager of Lihe (Pingtan) Biological Technology Company.

He said that he decided to set up his company in Pingtan because of its favorable taxation policies and bright economic prospects.

Taiwan Innovation Park, covering an area of about 223,000 square meters, was officially put into use on August 10, 2015. It aims to offer a platform for people from both sides of the Taiwan Straits to start up a business with low cost and convenience.
