    Philips TAT1215 In-Ear True Wireless Headphones Go Everywhere With You

    Up to 18 hours play time, water resistant, comfortable and compact

    The new Philips TAT1215 headphones are completely wireless and offer up to 18 hours play time. Their compact charging case slides easily into the pocket of even the slimmest jeans. These in-ear headphones are IPX4 splash and sweat-resistant. They don’t just sound great – they’re also comfortable to wear and provide easy touch control. With their ultra-long play time, you can be surrounded by your choice of sounds wherever you go.

    Great sounds, all day long

    The Philips TAT1215’s snug, lightweight design lets you rock your own music in total comfort. The soft, interchangeable ear-tip covers fit so well that you might almost forget you’re wearing headphones. You’ll be amazed by the crystal clear sound and punchy bass from the slim 6mm neodymium drivers. When you want to talk, the acoustic echo cancellation ensures you always get a clear, undisturbed connection without annoying echoes.

    Enjoy music all day with up to 18 hours of playtime – about six hours from a single charge of the headphones, plus an additional 12 hours from a fully charged case. The case charges remarkably quickly via USB. No matter what the weather is like and no matter what you are doing – IPX4 water resistance keeps the good sounds playing.

    Easy control, without phone hassles

    You can easily adjust the volume, skip or pause tracks, take or reject calls—and more – direct from the headphones. There’s no need to get your phone out. A button on each TAT1215 earbud makes them easy to control. The built-in mic with echo cancellation keeps sound crisp and clear so you don’t need to strain to communicate, whether you’re talking for work or for pleasure. Also, you can simply ask Siri or the Google Assistant to play some music, call or send messages to friends, check the weather and more.

  • Shopee Strengthens Supports for Brands to Reach Millions of Online Customers with 10.10 Brands Festival

    Shopee Strengthens Supports for Brands to Reach Millions of Online Customers with 10.10 Brands Festival

    On October 10, shoppers can enjoy free shipping with no minimum spend, big discounts, and amazing deals from leading brands.

    Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, continues its strong support for brands with the 10.10 Brands Festival. As more businesses explore the potential of e-commerce during the pandemic, Shopee is committed to providing the optimal environment to help brands of all sizes launch, scale, and succeed online.

    Three leading brands share how they utilize Shopee’s robust suite of marketing and operational solutions, including in-app features and big campaigns to accelerate their business growth online.

    Unilever realized the potential of Shopee’s in-app features with its Beauty That Cares Campaign last August. Through ShopeeLive, Unilever spread awareness for its advocacy to help small and local businesses affected by the pandemic. Unilever also uses other Shopee in-app features like Flash Deals and marketing solutions to reach a wider audience and build a seamless and shopping experience for their consumers.

    Jackie Mañago, Digital Commerce Marketing Manager at Unilever, said, “With the recent health crisis, we saw how consumer priorities have shifted and had to re-think the brand experience and find new ways to engage consumers. Thanks to our solid partnership with Shopee, we quickly adapted, strengthened our presence, and continuously served our shoppers amidst the pandemic.”

    Despite the limitation of selling channels during the pandemic, Realme routed its focus on e-commerce and gave more importance to offering affordable devices for communication, e-schooling, and work at home with Shopee. Realme was also able to amplify its exposure and increase its sales by using Shopee’s marketing services like ShopeeLive, banners, and campaigns.

    Eason de Guzman, Marketing Lead at Realme Philippines, said, “Through ShopeeLive, banners, and the famous Gadget Zone, we have been able to maximize our exposure and provide the best offers in our exclusive launches. Their platform creates a positive and inviting atmosphere, encouraging brands to participate in their campaigns. Since our partnership with Shopee began, we have seen stronger sales, whether it’s a launch or sustaining.”

    Since the start of the quarantine period last March, Alaska has been working closely with Shopee to boost their brand presence online. Alaska took advantage of Shopee’s highly visible in-app spots such as the flash deals section, marketing tools, and big campaigns to promote their products. With Shopee, Alaska saw 10x growth compared to last year.

    Marx Benedict So, Digital E-Commerce Manager for Alaska Milk Corporation, said, “Data and media are the lifelines of e-commerce. Thanks to Shopee, we can check which of our ads and products perform well using the marketing tool. Segment buys also play a crucial role, especially if there will be an upcoming campaign as these can increase awareness and convert consumers who are not yet exposed to the brand.”

    Martin Yu, Associate Director at Shopee Philippines, said, “At Shopee, brands form the backbone of our business. We have built a strong record of helping brands overcome business challenges and shift to online seamlessly with our strong ecosystem of solutions. We launched the 10.10 Brands Festival, the region’s biggest online shopping event for brands, to provide brands the needed visibility to further scale their business online. We have also expanded our offerings to help our brand partners find success online, and we will continue to do so to support and empower brands to capture immense growth opportunities in the Philippines.”

    Shopee 10.10 Brands Festival will run from September 24 to October 10, 2020.

  • Holcim products listed on procurement website for green builders

    Holcim products listed on procurement website for green builders

    As the global leader in building solutions LafargeHolcim Group recently unveiled bold plans to further improve environmental performance, local unit Holcim Philippines, Inc.’s cement offerings were listed on an online platform that guides contractors looking for materials and services for green building projects.

    Holcim Solido, Holcim Excel, and Holcim Wallright, which are designed for infrastructure, general purpose and masonry, are now listed on the Green Building Procurement Hub (Green Building/PH), a website that identifies products, services, and building spaces with green credentials. Green Building/PH is a service provided for the members of the Philippine Green Building Council (PHILGBC), an organization that accredits buildings for following or exceeding environmental standards.

    The company explains on Green Building/PH that Holcim Solido, Holcim Excel and Holcim Wallright are environment friendly because these are produced with lower greenhouse gas emissions and overall carbon footprint compared with Ordinary Portland Cement. 

    The company added that the products use mineral additives that reduce their content of clinker, the carbon-intensive component of cement and produced with low carbon-alternative fuels. The company is also working to have its range of dry mix mortar products listed on Green Building/PH.

    Holcim Philippines President and CEO John Stull: “This is part of our commitment to contribute to sustainable development in the country by supplying products that have lower environmental footprint while meeting the performance requirements of builders. As construction activity in the country continues, our partners can count on us to provide them with building solutions that are respectful of nature and ensure quality structures.”

    This development comes as the LafargeHolcim Group unveiled during the New York Climate Conference on Sept. 21, 2020 new commitments to accelerate the 20% reduction in carbon intensity of cement production by 2030 to contribute to the global effort of holding temperature changes to 1.5 degrees Celsius. To achieve this, LafargeHolcim will increase low-carbon and carbon neutral offerings, use more recycled materials as alternative fuels and raw materials among others.

    LafargeHolcim CEO Jan Jenisch: “I believe in building a world that works for people and the planet. That’s why we are reinventing how the world builds today to make it greener with low-carbon and circular solutions. I am very excited to be working with Science Based Targets Initiative, taking a rigorous science-based approach to shape our net zero roadmap and accelerating our efforts to substantially lower our CO2 footprint. I will not stop pushing the boundaries to lead the way in green construction.”

    Holcim Philippines is committed to reduce its net carbon emissions per ton of cementitious material in line with the LafargeHolcim Group’s targets to reduce its carbon footprint. Holcim Philippines has been making progress in this goal by producing more blended cements, increasing usage of alternative fuels and continuing improvement of operations for more efficient energy use.

    Holcim Philippines actively supports the reduction of carbon emissions of the cement industry as committed through its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) to the Philippine government, a signatory of the Paris Agreement. The NDC includes mitigation options for the Philippine cement industry such as transition to low-carbon products.
