AyalaLand Logistics Holdings Corp. (ALLHC), Ayala Land’s industrial parks and real estate logistics arm, has welcomed Taiwanese solar float manufacturer Suntoward Tech Philippine Inc. (Suntoward) as a new locator, marking the company’s entry into the Philippine market.
Suntoward has secured more than 3,800 square meters of gross leasable area at ALogis Mabalacat 1 in Pampanga for its initial operations, along with a long-term lease for an 8,200-square-meter industrial lot at Batangas Technopark to support its planned expansion.
The company will manufacture, fabricate, and assemble high-density polyethylene (HDPE) floats, walkways, and mounting components for floating solar photovoltaic (FPV) systems. Production at ALogis Mabalacat 1 is scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2027, with Suntoward serving renewable energy developers, engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractors, and industrial clients in the Philippines and overseas.
The two facilities provide Suntoward with locations in key regional growth areas. ALogis Mabalacat 1, within Pampanga Technopark, is accessible via the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX) and Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX), with Clark International Airport nearby. Batangas Technopark in Padre Garcia is accessible via the South Luzon Expressway (SLEX) and Southern Tagalog Arterial Road (STAR) Tollway.
“We are excited to establish our first operations in the Philippines through ALLHC’s facilities,” said Suntoward President Jack Wang. “This investment allows us to bring our manufacturing capabilities closer to key renewable energy projects in the region. We are confident that this partnership will help us serve our clients better while contributing to local industrial growth.”
For ALLHC, Suntoward’s entry reflects the role of its industrial properties in accommodating businesses establishing or expanding their operations in the Philippines.
“By providing industrial facilities in strategic regional locations, we aim to support businesses as they establish operations, expand capacity, and serve their markets,” said ALLHC Chief Operating Officer Patrick C. Avila. “We look forward to supporting Suntoward’s growth in the Philippines and its role in the supply chain for floating solar projects.”
Suntoward’s planned operations are expected to contribute to local economic activity and create employment opportunities as the company establishes its manufacturing presence in the country.
