  • Holcim eyes roll out of one-day road repair concrete in Davao, Baguio

    Holcim eyes roll out of one-day road repair concrete in Davao, Baguio

    Holcim Philippines will roll out its SFCrete road repair solution outside Metro Manila to help partners lessen disruption from rehabilitation of busy urban thoroughfares.

    Leading cement manufacturer Holcim Philippines, Inc. is planning to make available its one-day concrete SuperFast(SF) Crete outside the National Capita Region to support contractors looking to participate in government road repair projects in other urban areas and help lessen disruption to commuters .

    The company recently held a webinar to promote SFCrete among road contractors in Metro Manila, who expressed strong interest in using the building solution in their projects. The company also plans to offer SFCrete to contractor partners in Davao and Baguio, who are interested in lessening closure time of thoroughfares due to repairs. Since its launch in 2016, SFCrete has been used to repair close to 15 kilometers of roads all over Metro Manila.

    Holcim Philippines Senior Vice President for Marketing and Innovation noted that SFCrete is only one of the two one-day concrete solutions accredited by Department of Public Works and Highways. He added that SFCrete can help the government reduce disruption from the rehabilitation of main roads in urban areas. With SFCrete, roads can be reopened in 24 hours after repairs compared with regular concrete, which needs three to 14 days for curing.

    “SFCrete is part of the company’s thrust to provide building solutions to support local partners engaged in the country’s infrastructure upgrades including road rehabilitation. We are committed to further introducing these construction solutions to help the country build better,” he added.

    Maganti said that aside from the proven performance of SFCrete in fast curing time and concrete strength, contractors are provided superior technical support in optimizing the design of concrete. Furthermore, SFCrete is also useful today in keeping workers safe as its superior workability enables contractors to deploy less people and follow social distancing guidelines in projects. Partners may also avail of Holcim’s trainings on cement and concrete technology, SFCrete application, road construction and road safety to help them build better.

    Holcim Philippines, Inc. (Philippine Stock Exchange: HLCM) is one of the leading building solution companies in the country. The Company has a deep portfolio of innovative solutions fostered by a full range of products from structuring to finishing applications that can help local builders execute with high performance and efficiency a wide range of projects from massive infrastructure to simple home repairs.

    With cement manufacturing facilities in La Union, Bulacan, Batangas, Misamis Oriental and Davao, as well as aggregates and dry mix business and technical support facilities for building solutions, Holcim Philippines is a reliable partner of builders in the country.

    Holcim Philippines is also committed to the highest standards of sustainable operations and manufacturing excellence with its plants certified under ISO 14001:2004 (Environmental Management System), ISO 9001:2008 (Quality Management System) and OHSAS 18001:2007 (Occupational Health and Safety Management System).

    Holcim Philippines is a member of the LafargeHolcim Group, the world leader in the building materials industry present in 80 countries with over 75,000 employees.

  • HP delivers unparalleled safety in its Business PCs with high-grade security features

    HP delivers unparalleled safety in its Business PCs with high-grade security features

    As employees carry on in working from home, people learn to realize the vulnerabilities that come with the setup. One of these is that cybersecurity threats seem to be more apparent, with teams connecting to their personal networks and company devices exposed outside the secure office environment.

    Combating the spread of security threats, endpoint devices become the first line of defense, while hardware-based PC security is now essential more than ever. Understanding the risks involved, the security solutions engineered into HP Business PCs are designed to protect one’s activities, even if they are working from home.

    Enjoy high-grade security features as you work from home with the HP ProBook 400 series G7.

    From the moment the PC is switched on, the security products in the HP Security Stack are already working together in the background to protect one’s business, so they can continue to work, browse, click, and view, without fearing for their safety.

    With HP Business PCs, they can keep their laptops protected 24/7 as HP Sure Sense come into play. Sure Sense is the HP security solution that uses Deep Learning AI (artificial intelligence) with malware protection capabilities that are light years ahead. It scans files and detects new and traditional threats instinctively, and keeps the PC protected in real-time. HP Sure Sense works in sync with HP Sure Run, which keeps the laptop safe 24/7 whether or not it is online.

    As employees work from home unmonitored, many tend to access several apps on the go, sometimes on untrusted networks. HP Sure Click provides a revolutionary solution developed through the collaboration of HP and Bromium — the pioneers of application isolation using patented micro virtualization technology.

    HP Sure Click is a hardware-based, secure browsing solution within the OS (operating system) that effectively isolates web content in a virtual machine that malware cannot strike. It shrugs off browser-borne attacks and protects the users as they work and play, delivering unparalleled user experience backed up by top-notch security and privacy.

    HP also protects its Business PCs from end-to-end. This is made possible with HP Sure Start, which ensures the PC’s safety from its most fundamental level. It also works in concert with the HP Security Controller, so when any form of tampering is detected, the computer self-heals from any malware or corruption to automatically be replaced with clean and fully functional BIOS.

    Lastly, working remotely means that not everyone has access to an IT professional whenever they encounter tech problems. But with HP Sure Recover built into the system’s hardware and firmware, users can restore their machines conveniently anytime, anywhere, using only a network connection.

    Combine productivity and security like no other with the HP EliteBook 800 G7.

    With HP Security Stack working together to secure your activities, one can continue to work remotely with safety and convenience without sacrificing performance. These security features from HP are available in the HP ProBook 400 series G7, which combines power and elegance to deliver productivity in style, and the HP EliteBook 800 G7, an ultra-slim convertible laptop that guarantees unparalleled security and mobility.

  • Durex to launch an all-new campaign focused on HIV Protection & Preparedness Education (PPE): This all-digital campaign stresses the ongoing dangers of HIV during this pandemic

    Durex to launch an all-new campaign focused on HIV Protection & Preparedness Education (PPE): This all-digital campaign stresses the ongoing dangers of HIV during this pandemic

    In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the issue of HIV and the dangers it brings, seems to have taken a backseat amidst everything that the whole world is experiencing right now. Yet, what people don’t seem to realize is that HIV is equally threatening as COVID-19. In the same way that we are told to wear masks and face shields, being properly educated, prepared, and protected against HIV is likewise critical in today’s times.

    With this in mind, Durex launches its latest digital campaign dubbed as “Protection & Preparedness Education” or PPE in short. This timely initiative aims to heighten HIV awareness, stressing the constant relevance of safe sex and “Always Coming Prepared”—and that we must never let our guards down. Whether for singles or stay-at-home couples, using protection—which can provide necessary safeguards without limiting pleasure—is crucial, as health and wellness concerns continue to take front and center, during the ongoing pandemic.

    Towards this end, Durex has lined-up a series of online events, headlined by the crew of Boys Night Out (BNO)—TonyToni, Slick Rick, and Sam YG—the campaign’s main ambassadors.

    “With all that is happening during these trying times, we must not lose sight of the fact that HIV remains to be a serious concern, one that is as life-threatening as COVID-19,” says Durex Philippines. “The Always Come Prepared campaign of Durex therefore continues, made just as relevant and timely—in keeping with the situation by going online. We will keep on with our goal of educating the public about HIV Prevention, and that being prepared is always a must.”

    Among the exciting and relevant activities to watch out for include an online staging of the University Townhall series featuring speakers from the medical field, psychology, HIV, and LGBTQIA+ awareness and advocacy; the launch of HIV Awareness E-Learning Videos that’s well suited for the shift towards online learning; and Vlog collabs with influencers and celebrities focused on fun, health and wellness activities.
