Wanted Prefab manufacturers: Typhoon victims and stakeholders press for house construction

There is a need for Manufacturers of prefab housing components to speed up the construction of housing units in Mindanao.

The same can also be said eventually of Tacloban and many other parts of Visayas that was hit by an extremely powerful storm, with powerful tidal waves, in November 7, 2013.

Home units required run up to close to one hundred thousand and this will entail an enormous amount of expenditure on the part of the public sector.

It is therefore encouraged that prefab housing component Manufacturers stand in line to offer their products and services for the resolution of too much delayed construction of shelter units for the victims of two mega disasters in Mindanao and prospectively, the construction of homes for victims of Typhoon #Haiyan or #Yolanda in the Visayas.

In 2012 there was Typhoon Bopha (Philippine assigned name: Pablo) that struck the Davao region. From their own websites, we share the photos of those that published the impact of the disaster that hit Mindanao in that period:



Earlier, in 2011 there was Typhoon Washi (local code: Sendong) that left about a hundred thousand people homeless in the Philippines. Shared herein from their own original websites, are images of destruction and death by 2011 disaster in Mindanao affecting Lanao and Misasmis Provinces:


Only a concrete number of 20,000 housing units have been designated for construction since 2011-2012 when these calamities hit the country out of declared completely homeless of about one hundred thousand core families.

Today, the victims and the stakeholders in the areas severely hit by these two killer typhoons aspire that the building of the budget-allocated 20,000 units will be completed.

Only about 10% or more or less 2,000 units have been built so far, and this is due to the lack of affordable prefabricated materials like wall boards or particle boards that pass rigid quality standard tests.


Our Vision

Enterprise Vision


The construction industry is experiencing a boom. We anticipate that this positive trend will continue for a long, long period without any impediment. Our foresight is that with the enthusiasm to build, the industry will need to have all hands in as much as possible.

Star Rocks Trading is ever more ready to provide the need and enflesh the link required in some of the gap that will be created by this ever expanding and burgeoning activity in the construction sector.

We will work towards a future of a wholly sustaining building activity all around the country that addresses the need to fill up the housing backlog of no less than 10 million economy sized homes nationwide and also putting up housing units needing bigger budgets for the country’s professional sector and our elites.

Both the public sector and private commercial enterprise are engaged in the current building boom. We hold the conviction that even a small, startup venture such as Star Rocks will be able to contribute to the noble goal of rendering free and liberated and no longer homeless – our fellow Filipinos who live in abodes that are not their own – once and for all. Into the future, we envision satisfied and aesthetically fulfilled clients.
