THAI fiber cement manufacturer SHERA said its facility in Mabalacat, Pampanga has reached 60 percent completion and is poised to open commercial operations in January 2025.
The P2-billion 5-hectare facility is SHERA’s first production hub outside Thailand..
Designed to deliver up to 240,000 tons of fiber cement, the state-of-the art facility will manufacture products for the Philippines and for export to Taiwan, South Korea, and some parts of North Asia, and Oceania . Up to 150 employees will be hired.
“Our Mabalacat plant is a major step of SHERA’s plan to expand further in the Philippine market. We know that once this facility is fully operational by next year, more Filipinos will easily access our eco-friendly and durable fiber cement products,” said Ongek Taechamahaphant, chairman and director of SHERA Public Company Limited.
SHERA’s signature fiber cement products can be used in different capacities, from decorative wall cladding and sidings, floor decking and ceiling eaves materials and more.
Such materials are all made with the most innovative fiber-cement that will surely bring more product for customers to build a better home.
Shera’s fiber cement products are eco-friendly. Fiber cement has a longer life span compared to other construction materials, helping reduce waste. These are also highly durable as they do not swell, bend, or crook. These are water and fire-resistant, meaning they can withstand emergencies and the Philippines’ unpredictable climate.
