Company Overview

Asiaphil Manufacturing Industries, Inc. has been a leader in the Philippines’ electrical industry since 1973. All these started with the vision and persistence of one man -- its founder Mr. Guillermo T. Batungbacal. His achievements and accomplishments in the field of electrical manufacturing and contracting established himself as the pioneer in the industry.

What started as a home business with a handful of friends and a start-up capital of only P373,840.00 -- is now a modern facility catering to a wide range of industrial, commercial and residential applications.

Early in 1980, Cutler-Hammer, Inc. (a leading high-quality products and systems manufacturer in U.S.A.) invested up to 30% of equity in the company. The investment raised the company’s net worth to P3,377,000. Local stockholders in the view of four considerations welcomed the Cutler Hammer investment:

• Transfer of higher technology from Cutler-Hammer to Asiaphil
• Lower Production cost arising from transfer pricing of components to the company
• Product quality reputation of Cutler-Hammer in the electrical industry
• Probable expansion into the Asian and Middle East export market

The company was renamed Asiaphil Cutler-Hammer, Inc., and its board was increased from 7 to 10, to accommodate 3 nominees from Cutler-Hammer. The company also expanded its services to include a Contracting Division.

In February 17, 1983, the company again was renamed Asiaphil Manufacturing Industries, Inc. so that it may market a wider range of products and services.

From thereon, Asiaphil aggressively developed and improved its manufacturing facilities and its engineering and production techniques. Over the years, the company acquired state-of-the-art Computerized Numerically Controlled (CNC) sheet metal and busbar fabrication equipment, metal preparation & powder painting equipment and pneumatic tools. The whole manufacturing process was streamlined and stringent quality control measures were introduced. Moreover Asiaphil’s vision grew to encompass foreign markets as well.

Asiaphil is also engaged in the power generation business. One of its project is a 2.3MW power-generating facility which supplies electricity solely to the Coca-Cola Bottler’s plant in Bulacan at a lower rate than that of the local provider. Asiaphil is one of the first Filipino companies to build, own and operate such a facility. In addition, another 2.3MW power generation facility is currently supplying power to an island utility company.

Asiaphil has always been committed to attaining the highest quality standards. Today, the company enjoys a prestigious reputation in the local and global market. As proof our our commitment to superior quality in our products and services, we have, since 1998, been merited an ISO 9001 certification from the International Standards Organization (ISO). This certification ensures customers and end-users that all products of Asiaphil are at par with the world’s best.

In April of the year 2002, the sheet metal fabrication section was spun-off and made into a separate entity, under the name Asiaphil Metal Manufacturing Industries, Inc. Aside from fabrication, this company also houses the metal treatment, powder painting and machine shop facilities.

In the same year, the HOPE financing was established, providing financial assistance to EDUs (Electrical Distribution Utilities).

In the year 2003, the manufacturing section was further separated from Asiaphil, naming it Asiaphil Electric, Inc. This new company is a complete unit of its own.

Asiaphil Manufacturing Industries, Inc. is now focused primarily on Project Management, Field Service and Contract Maintenance.

Asiaphil is continuously improving itself to be a reliable and dependable electrical contractor. All these are based on our continuing commitment to provide quality services that are completed on time at an affordable price.
