NanoForge Solutions Inc. has inaugurated a 2,600-square-metre air filtration manufacturing facility in Carmona, Cavite, marking a strategic expansion in the Philippines’ export-oriented manufacturing sector.

The plant, built at Golden Mile Business Park, represents an initial investment of nearly $1.2 million (€1m) and is set up to produce high-performance HEPA-grade air filtration products for global markets, primarily the United States.

Currently employing 65 workers, NanoForge plans to expand its workforce to around 250 by 2027 as production capacity scales. The site, a converted underutilized warehouse, has been upgraded to meet international quality, safety, and environmental standards.

The inauguration was attended by local government officials, representatives from the Philippine Economic Zone Authority (PEZA), US and Swedish trade groups, and executives from a US-based client firm. Company leaders emphasised the facility’s role in boosting export-led growth and positioning the Philippines as a competitive hub for high-value, technology-driven manufacturing.

NanoForge co-founders highlighted sustainability as a core operational focus, with long-term plans to integrate locally sourced raw materials. The company also intends to pursue global product certifications and expand manufacturing capabilities in partnership with government and industry stakeholders.

Founded by Filipino-American and Filipino-Swedish entrepreneurs, NanoForge specialises in clean technology and advanced manufacturing, concentrating on HEPA-grade filtration products for export markets. The Cavite plant forms part of a broader strategy to attract international manufacturing mandates and contribute to industrial upgrading in the Philippines.
