Earthquake
and storm-proof hybrid bamboo structures may soon replace houses and edifices ravaged
by the earthquake and typhoon in calamity affected areas in Bohol, Cebu, Leyte
and Samar.
In 2014, the Philippine Bamboo Foundation Inc. (PBFI) will collaborate with government and international organizations to cater to the present need of producing alternative green structures for the calamity stricken areas in Bohol, Cebu, Leyte & Samar provinces.
Recently, the Department of Trade and Industry turned over a Shared Service Facility to the Philippine Bamboo Foundation Inc. (PBFI) for use in its various projects last March 3 in Dauin, Negros Oriental.
Beneficiaries of the project include not just workers of the PBFI, but also other primary & secondary bamboo processors in the bamboo industry of Negros Oriental.

With the common
service facility, workers in the bamboo industry can now access equipment and
mechanized tools to increase their production capacity, efficiency and serve
new markets through more products and services.
The Philippine Bamboo Foundation Inc. (PBFI) is an NGO that hosts the biggest bamboo nursery for the entire Visayas & Mindanao with at least 40 bamboo species grown in the nursery site in Dauin, Negros Oriental.
A Shared Service Facility (SSF) is a strategic complementary project that intends to balance off existing programs such as National Industry Cluster Capacity Enhancement Project (NICCEP) to achieve inclusive growth as envisioned by the current administration.
The engineered bamboo produced by PBFI includes a wide range of composite products manufactured by binding together bamboo strips, slats, strands, particles, fibers or veneers with a suitable glue. (ends)
