High quality housing for Pinoys? Two leading names in
building, Phinma Properties and Holcim Philippines, partner up
to deliver concrete solutions
A solid bond
SOME PARTNERSHIPS
just work,
thanks to great chemistry and a
shared vision.
“Value engineering is something
we do and we are taking it a step
further,” says Phinma Properties
President and CEO Willie J. Uy
(pictured above). “We prefer to
use Holcim Concrete for all our
projects.” It’s a relationship between
two building giants that works.
Mr. Uy says, “We’re very happy
with our business relationship with
Holcim. There is a camaraderie that’s
been cultivated over the years.” The
big winner out of this bond? The
Pinoy mid-market segment who
will now enjoy a wealth of housing
options for families.
Phinma and Holcim:
Why it works
EVERY GOOD HOME
must be built on the
solid foundation of high-quality materials.
That’s why Holcim, the leading name in
concrete, is the preferred brand of real estate
giant Phinma Properties.
Phinma Properties’ latest project, Sofia
Bellevue, is a testament to its successful
partnership with Holcim Philippines. Holcim,
backed by 100 years of strength, performance
and passion for innovation, understands
the nuances of every project and works
with every customer to create customized
concrete solutions. For Sofia Bellevue, Holcim
worked with Phinma Properties’ proprietary
shell casting construction technology, and
designed an innovative high early strength
concrete that allowed them to build faster and
thus meet turnover dates.
With their cast-in-place system, Phinma
Properties achieves a fast turnover of
condominium units to its customers. “Our
projects are normally completed within a
year, thanks to an efficient building system,”
says Phinma Property Holdings Corporation
President and CEO Willie J Uy.
It’s a system that gets a major boost thanks
to the quality of a key ingredient — concrete
by Holcim. “Basically, the condominium units
are made of concrete — and 30 to 40% of
the cost of the building is concrete,” explains
Mr. Uy. “With Holcim’s high early strength
concrete, we can build a floor every 17 to 24
hours.” This ensures that Phinma Properties
will meet its goal of providing Filipinos with
high quality and affordable housing options
over the next 15 years, all while pursuing its
commitment to high standards. Phinma is
the first and only developer in the Philippines
with a triple ISO certification for quality,
environmental and occupational safety, and
health systems.
