New Eco-Friendly Laptop Sleeve By LenovoPro, Microsoft and Bynd Artisan

Hi Huneybees,

Time to give your laptop a new look? Check out the new limited edition laptop sleeve by Lenovo Singapore and Bynd Artisan. Made entirely from sustainable, eco-friendly vegan leather; this collaboration with Bynd Artisan not only reflects Lenovo's continued commitment to its Climate Change Mitigation Goals for 2025 but also perfectly aligns with Bynd Artisan's ethos of creating perfect leather gifts and features the signature craftsmanship of the 70-year-old, Singapore-founded brand. 

Stylish and versatile, the sleeve is designed with the lifestyle of a modern businessperson in mind. It features slim pockets (embossed with LenovoPro and Microsoft logos) that hold items essential to the professional on the go, like mobile phones and business cards; serving as the perfect complement to Think laptop users, who appreciate fine craftsmanship, reliability, and sleek aesthetics.

The LenovoPro and Bynd Artisan laptop sleeve is built to protect Lenovo's ThinkPad and ThinkBook laptops and features:

• Belly band: Made from recycled food pulp paper, these distinctive and vivid papers are made from organic food by-products such as citrus fruits, coffee, hazelnuts, and corn, which would have been otherwise left as an industrial residue in landfills. Incorporating these natural raw materials into the paper has effectively replaced up to 15 percent of virgin tree pulp normally required for paper making.
• Vegan leather: Produced using process-controlled machines and eco-friendly methods, vegan leather is a great animal-friendly alternative to genuine leather. It offers the same supple touch and appearance of leather without the high carbon footprint, typically a result of the gallons of water required to process natural leather.
• Felt: Produced from acrylic threads largely attained from post-consumer plastic, the felt material is highly durable with many layers interlocked in its construction. Although lightweight, it is highly water-resistant and provides great layered protection. Ultimately, the felt scraps and fibers can be further broken down and recycled towards the end of their lifecycle.

The online exclusive laptop sleeve (worth S$158.00) is limited to the first 800 purchases and can only be redeemed with any THINK laptop purchased via the LenovoPRO site from 18 July 2022. Sign up for a free LenovoPRO account now and enjoy a 10 percent welcome discount. 
*Terms and conditions apply

G-SHOCK Launched New Watch With Against Lab

Hi Huneybees,

If you are a G-SHOCK fan, here's a SEA exclusive one for you. Coming June, the G-SHOCK DW-6900AL22, is a limited-edition collaboration between Casio and Against Lab. Against Lab is founded in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in 2015 with limited resources and armed to go against the norm. The brand represents the spirit of the underdog. All endeavor, no surrender. Against Lab offers various clothing and accessories made through the love for streetwear culture.

DW-6900 was first released in 1995 as the first G-SHOCK to feature an EL backlight. The backlight’s ability to display text or a symbol became a popular feature. Also, the series won fans as a “Triple Graph” model and has remained just as popular to this day. 

Taking inspiration from the superhuman mental toughness of folks who wake up and ride their motorcycle to work, enduring the heat, rain, and occasional road bullies. This collaboration embodies the ultimate Malaysian spirit - The Grind. 

Anytime is the right time to grind. 

Motorcycle culture is one of many strong identities of Malaysian society. The motorcyclist spirit reflects the ethos of G-shock, both built by toughness. Almost every Malaysian has their own experience with a motorcycle - Meant to be cheap, easy to maintain, and reliable. A small motorcycle is used as a tool for conducting business. Name any task, and it has probably done it.

 

The design language of motorcycle components is adopted as the main design element for this collaboration. The overall look may be matte black and but it's the subtle details that appeals. Look closely and you can find that the watch has grain effects, almost like a tire and there's the custom "AGAINST" tire tread graphic and the brand slogan "ALL ENDEAVOUR, NO SURRENDER", printed along the watchband. 

The surprise easter egg is the "AGAINST" mini logo font on the watch face, accompanied by a hidden "A" logo backlight; alongside the special engraving on the Case Back. The metal chrome watch face resembles the material of motorcycle exhaust pipes, while the orange outline is the colour of signal lights. Finally, the whole concept is completed with the engraved steel backing of AGAINST LAB's brand mascot, "A-Man".

This watch series will be available at https://gshock.casio.com/sg/ and in all G-SHOCK stores in June 2022. Please sign up for CASIO ID at https://www.casio.com/sg/casio-id/ to be updated with the latest information.

UPDATED! Limited Edition Singapore Exclusive Local Design Series Products By Thermos

Hi Huneybees,

In celebration of its 113th Anniversary, Thermos Singapore has just launched its Limited Edition Singapore Exclusive Local Design Series Products - a one-push tumbler with Singapore’s iconic landmarks, and a food jar with drawings of traditional local food - with the collaboration from Pathlight School.

(From left to right) Ms Linda Kho (Principal, Pathlight School) and Grace Ong (Student Artist, Artist Development Programme, Pathlight School) as Jonathan Cai (Student Artist, Artist Development Programme, Pathlight School) presents his own artwork as a token of appreciation to Mr Hirokazu Otomo (Managing Director, Thermos Singapore) and Mr Seiichi Itoh (Chairman, Thermos Singapore).

Working for the first time with the Artist Development Programme from Singapore's first autism-focus school has not only resulted in the creation of two very distinct and beautifully designed products for Thermos Singapore, but also contributed to Thermos' corporate social responsibility to the community.

Through the collaboration, Thermos Singapore is able to uncover the talented artists - like Jonathan Cai and Grace Ong - among young people with special need by bringing their arts to the home and hearts of its customer.

During my short interaction with both young artists at the media session, I realised while both share great passion for arts and are very meticulous in their artwork, their styles are very different.
The style of Jonathan Cai is more structured - lines and curves -  as he prefers architecture and takes his inspiration from books and magazines while Grace Ong's style is more free flow and she takes her inspiration from the things she experienced and observed around her. In fact through Grace mum, I got the privilege to see her art portfolio and came to realisation she has great interest in jewellery design and hope one day her designs could be wore by many people!

The two Singapore Exclusive Local Design Thermos X Pathlight School premium product - JNL-400S & JBQ-400S

The Thermos® JNL-400S

Featuring detailed architectural line art of the Marina Skyline, by the hands of the 13 years old Artist, Jonathan Cai, the ultra-light and sleek tumbler showcases iconic landmarks such as Gardens by the Bay and Marina Bay Sands.

The Thermos® JBQ-400S

Singapore Exclusive Local Design Food Jar pays tribute to Singapore’s rich heritage of local delights. Grace Ong, who is 15 years old, transforms the food jar into a chic canvas with an assortment of local traditional foods such as Kueh Tutu, Kueh Lapis and Lepat Kacang in gold

To extend Thermos Singapore's support for many more young differently-abled aspiring artists, the global manufacturer and the pioneer in developing innovative vacuum-insulated products will be donating two specially designed big size bottles  - The Thermos® FDH-2005, which has a large capacity 2.0L - for a charity auction. 
Each bottle is specially hand-drawn by none other than the talented Jonathan Cai and Grace Ong!

Calling out to all Huneybees, please do your part too by participating in this online auction, which will start from 27 July 2017, 3:00pm till 31 August 2017, 11:59pm at www.thermos.com.sg/events/charity.

All proceeds for this charity auction will be donated to Pathlight School's parent charity, Autism Resource Centre (Singapore), a non-for-profit organization that supports individuals with autism.
More details of the auction can be found on the website.

Celebrate the good old times with Sinalco Special and Kickapoo this Chinese New Year!

Hi Huneybees,

Yipee! This Year of the Monkey calls for a touch of nostalgia as we take  a “sip” down memory lane this Chinese New Year with the nostalgic beverages we have grown up with since our childhood. 

POKKA, Asia Pacific’s leading food and beverage group, has gone retro with two of our favourite classic ready-to-drink beverages and tapping on the nostalgia of yesteryears, Kickapoo, a unique blend of citrus-flavoured carbonated soft drink is given a new retro feel while Sinalco Special, a distinctive and memorable flavour many Singaporeans grew up with is back on our shores.

#Chung family #reunion dinner done! Always a joy to taste mama's amazing dishes and thanks #pokka for the nostalgic #kickapoo and #sinalco treat. Happy 50th Anniversary Pokka and Happy Lunar New Year everyone! 恭喜发财!!! 🍻🍻 #cny #LunarNewYear #ChineseNewYear #sgbloggers #sgblogger #Singapore #nostalgia #abalone #reuniondinner #HuneyZWorld #sgig #igers

A photo posted by Christina Chung 曾莉雯 (@huney_84) on Feb 6, 2016 at 6:02am PST

I've been a fan of Kickapoo since my dad introduced it to me, but Sinalco is definitely my first time trying. I love the fruity flavour and once I had it out on the table, it was already snagged up by my cousins who told stories of their younger days whilst enjoying the drink. I love how these drinks can bridge the generation gap and give another meaning for harmony and social interaction this festive season!

Kickapoo Joy Juice

Before becoming a popular drink among Singaporeans, “Kickapoo Joy Juice” was actually a beverage drunk by the characters of American comic strip “Lil Abner”. In the comic, cave dwelling characters Lonesome Polecat and Hairless Joe who live in the fictional village of Dogpatch invented Kickapoo Joy Juice - a liquor of such stupefying potency that the hardiest citizens of Dogpatch, after the first burning sip, rose into the air, stiff as frozen codfish. A new version of the drink was then produced by Monarch Beverage of Atlanta with Singapore and Malaysia being the lead countries to launch the product in 1966. Today, Kickapoo is one of the most popular citrus flavoured Carbonated Soft Drinks brand in the region thanks to its superior taste and that kick!

 

Sinalco Special

This iconic beverage has truly been missed in Singapore with consumers and retailers voicing how much they would like the product to return to local stores and F&B outlets. Established in 1905, Sinalco (a combination of the Latin words: “sine alcohole”, which means “without alcohol” in English) is the oldest non-alcoholic beverage brand of continental European origin exported to more than 150 countries across the globe. A unique composition made with four different fruit flavors to create a unique taste, Sinalco Special provides an unparalleled drinking experience and is an all-time classic which many Singaporeans grew up with.

“Sinalco Special has been providing thirst-quenching refreshment to Singapore residents in the past, thus it is not completely unknown to the likes of 80s kids (and older). The reintroduction of our brand to Singapore is a special moment in its 110 year history. We are happy to have found a strong, reliable partner in Pokka to bring back the joy of this once popular beverage” --- Mr Mongi Goundi, Managing Director Sinalco International Brands GmbH & Co. KG, Germany.

 

The launch of Kickapoo and Sinalco Special will be highlighted by limited edition anniversary designs of cans and bottles that have a unique and retro styling. Both Kickapoo and Sinalco Special are now available at most major supermarkets, hypermarkets, and coffee shops across Singapore.
