Magna Prime Chemical Technologies, Inc. Celebrates its 24th Founding Anniversary with Groundbreaking Launches

Magna Prime Chemical and Technologies, Inc. marks a significant milestone as it celebrates its 24th Founding Anniversary on January 24, 2025. To commemorate this momentous occasion, the company proudly announces the inauguration of the Buildrite Academy, an innovative program designed to elevate industry standards. Set to become a TESDA-accredited professional training center, the Buildrite Academy will provide hands-on training for engineers, architects, aspiring contractors, masons, and skilled workers in critical areas such as tiling and waterproofing.

The academy addresses a crucial knowledge gap in the proper use of construction chemicals for pre-learners and post-learners. By imparting best practices and methodologies according to international standards, it equips architects, engineers, and contractors to specify and apply products with precision. This initiative fosters informed construction practices and correct specifications, leading to superior finishes and more efficient applications on-site.

In addition to the academy, Magna Prime is launching the Philippines’ first Modified Silicone Manufacturing Facility in partnership with Kaneka. This facility not only champions eco-friendly solutions but also reduces costs, making advanced materials more accessible. Furthermore, it opens the door to product innovation, such as adhesives for wood and parquet, construction adhesives, and various types of sealants, driving progress in the local construction industry and reinforcing Magna Prime’s dedication to innovation and excellence.

Introducing Innovative Products for the Construction Industry

Magna Prime’s commitment to driving innovation is further exemplified by the introduction of several groundbreaking products designed to meet the evolving needs of the construction industry. These products include:

Flex Wall

Smartbond Flex Wall

A tile adhesive specifically designed for wall applications with enhanced slip resistance, ensuring stability and ease of use. What sets it apart is its focus on wall performance. Traditionally, tiles were simply fixed to prevent them from falling, but with Smartbond Flex Wall, Buildrite has elevated the standard by providing superior bonding strength and flexibility, tailored to meet the demands of modern wall applications.

Flex Hydro

Smartbond Flex Hydro

Specifically engineered for underwater applications, having undergone rigorous water immersion tests to ensure long-lasting durability and reliable performance. It is developed to address a common issue: swimming pool tiles often pop out due to insufficient bonding strength. With this innovation, swimming pool tiles are secured effectively, providing a lasting solution for underwater environments.

Tofil

Tofil 801 Extra

A premium skim coat designed with an “extra” advantage—allowing for thinner application, a smoother finish, and enhanced workability. The “extra” factor provides additional room for corrections, accommodating common application and mixing errors by workers, such as adding too much water. This extra allowance improves workability, helping to address issues like poor workmanship that often lead to problems like a chalky finish. Its extra-thin formulation and superior finish make it easier to apply, delivering exceptional quality and reliability for every project.

Kryocrete

Kryocrete

A patented lightweight insulating mortar with air-entraining technology, Kryocrete offers exceptional insulation properties while remaining easy to handle. As the first of its kind in the Philippines, Kryocrete can reduce temperatures by 2 to 3 degrees Celsius, making it a groundbreaking solution for enhancing thermal comfort in homes and buildings.

Stopslip

Stopslip Anti-Slip Coating for Tiles

Specifically designed to enhance safety in shower areas, this durable, non-slip coating minimizes the risk of accidents while providing long-term performance. Ideal for light-traffic environments such as hospitals, hotels, and homes, it is particularly beneficial for spaces used by children and adults. Easy to apply, this solution ensures tiles remain safe and slip-resistant, especially in areas prone to moisture, like bathrooms and shower areas.

Surfix

Surfix is a specialized product designed to ensure proper surface preparation, guaranteeing that coatings and waterproofing treatments adhere effectively and perform as intended. By enhancing adhesion and optimizing surface properties, Surfix plays a crucial role in maximizing the functionality and durability of coatings and waterproofing systems. Proper surface treatment is essential to ensure these products deliver their full potential, providing long-lasting and reliable performance.
