Top officials of building solutions provider Holcim Philippines, Inc. recently met with Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) Secretary Ramon Lopez to share the company's initiatives to better support the government in upgrading the country's infrastructure through stable supply of quality cement nationwide.

Holcim Philippines Chairman Tomas Alcantara, President and CEO John Stull and Senior Vice President for Sales William Sumalinog personally expressed the company's willingness to further build up its production capacities in light of the increased cement demand driven by the government's massive infrastructure investments. They also assured the DTI compliance to product standards to ensure highest quality and performance.
