Corebilt and Häfele Strengthen Collaboration to Elevate Office and Commercial Spaces in the Philippines

The unique collaboration brings together the leading general contractor’s expertise in design and build, IT integration, and workplace transformation with Häfele’s globally recognized solutions in architectural hardware, fittings, lighting systems, and smart space innovations.

“We want to deliver our services in the best possible way,” Corebilt President Angela Manese said during the contract signing event held Tuesday, May 12. “This partnership enables us to elevate the whole fit-out landscape, delivering fit-out solutions to clients better, faster, and more cost-efficient.”

“Our goal is to have our products in every room,” Häfele Philippines Managing Director Stan Hug stated. “And it’s only possible with the right partners, and that’s where Corebilt comes in.”

Corebilt and Häfele Philippines will work together to improve the process of delivering modern workspaces that meet the changing needs of businesses, while maintaining high standards in craftsmanship and operational performance.

“These are two organizations that are very good with what they do,” Häfele Philippines National Sales Manager Richard Garcia said. “Our good products deserve a good partner.”

The collaboration also reinforces both companies’ shared commitment to innovation, reliability, and client-focused solutions. With a growing demand for efficient and future-ready commercial interiors in the Philippines, Corebilt and Häfele’s partnership paves the way for a better approach in contractor-supplier relationships and coordination.

“This partnership started because we wanted better-delivered, high quality builds,” Fulcrum Point’s Faren Panopio shared. “We’ve always used Häfele products in our projects and this collaboration allows us to have a deeper understanding and capabilities, given their products are aligned with our clients’ visions.”

“Having worked with a lot of commercial clients and businesses, we’ve seen how board rooms, conference rooms, and meeting rooms are the biggest investments when it comes to fit-outs,” Corebilt Quantity Surveying Head David Vidad said. “We believe that Häfele’s innovative take on this crucial material is the perfect solution for improved project delivery for Corebilt.”

“Our operable systems are reliable and tested. My intention is to partner with similar partners,” Häfele Movable Walls and Technical Specs Project Division Head Benhur Imbang noted. “And without a doubt, Corebilt passes the intent and the expertise. Their vision is very much aligned with what we’re trying to accomplish.”

Häfele’s movable wall systems bring versatility to offices, homes, hotels and restaurants, allowing spaces to be reconfigured with ease. These solutions, together with other Häfele offerings such as architectural hardware represent key areas of collaboration between Corebilt and Häfele.

As both companies move forward with this strengthened collaboration, Corebilt and Häfele aim to set a new benchmark for office and commercial fit-outs in the Philippines, one that combines world-class technology, expert craftsmanship, and building with intention. Through a shared commitment to quality, precision, and long-term partnerships, this partnership reflects a shared vision of transforming vision into inspired spaces.
