The Dream Factory with green features that is no longer a dream

From the heart of Taiwan Nantou, SHUTER is setting the sail to its next milestone

SHUTER has just finished its ground-breaking ceremony today (9th, August, 2017) for their new factory “BABUZA Dream Factory” in Nangang industrial park located in Nantou county. BABUZA Dream Factory will take over 16,800sqm2    of space and cost top up to over 66million USD. BABUZA is one of the rare indigenous tribes in Taiwan. SHUTER recognizes the value of the vanishing tribe because only through the historical past of the island can we see through the uniqueness of Taiwan. By using BABUZA as the main theme of its Dream Factory, the General Manager Yira Wu hopes to bring the culture and language elements of BABUZA back to life.


The Invitation for groundbreaking ceremony


Although being questioned about ‘BABUZA’ of being a low-profile tribe and the eligibility of being the central theme for the factory, Yira Wu remains firm on this decision, and said that there are more reason to promote the vanishing cultural gem BABUZA.



Yira Wu stated in the ceremony that the dream of building a novel factory was incubated in 2012, originated from his dream to build a second home for all employees. The Dream Factory will be constructed with timber and engineered wood, with enhanced height of the administration tower - creating a sense of  spatial extension.

Over 300 guests participated the ground-breaking ceremony, including the vice president of the Legislative Yuan Tsai, Chi-Chang, the mayor of Nantou county Lin Ming-Chen, the vice mayor of Taichung Chang Guan Yao, along with the architect team from Australia and Canada.

Upon completion, the Dream Factory will definitely be compared with world-class green factories.



The factory will also feature the ’Tree of the Life’, which is the central building element connecting the manufacturing quarter to the administration tower. Curved engineered wood beams and plates will form the tree trunk. The finished structure will be approximately 31 meter tall and 16 meter in diameter - constructing a significant free standing wood structures.
