Industry consulting across the globe

A new paint factory in the Philippines was constructed in collaboration between Artelia and our Philippine subsidiary, PacificTech Solutions.

The Norwegian company Jotun is a global player in developing the highest quality of paint. For example, the company has delivered paint on several occasions to the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Jotun is constantly expanding in Asia and, in light of this, the company has opened a new factory in the Philippines. The factory can produce up to 5 million liters of paint annually, which are mainly used for ships, buildings and marine installations. A total of 6 buildings were built, the largest of which are the administration building and production hall.
PacificTech Solutions was responsible for the design and communication with the authorities on the project, whilst Artelia assisted with the construction management. We stationed a construction manager there, who was on site each day from the outset.

Multiple international projects
PacificTech Solutions assists in the design of a number of Danish Artelia projects, which both helps to secure resources and reduce project costs. However, as the Jotun building shows, the Philippine company also improves Artelia’s global standing.
Especially as PacificTech Solutions has many international clients and carries out projects worldwide. In the industrial sector alone, the company contributes to the construction of factories for globally recognised brands, such as Heineken and Nestlé.

“For Jotun, it has been a question of adjusting their project to meet both the Philippines’ requirements and European standards. It has therefore been a great advantage to draw
upon the combination of a Danish construction manager and a company with local knowledge.”
