Food Processing Plant — Manila, Philippines

Food processing plants in the Philippines must meet FDA (Food and Drug Administration) hygiene standards and BFAD certification, with cleanroom areas required to meet GMP standards. ZhongSai provides food-grade compliant sandwich panels (rock wool/polyurethane core, double-sided galvanized steel + food-grade coating), and steel structure surfaces use easy-to-clean epoxy topcoat to avoid dust accumulation and bacterial growth, meeting food industry hygiene requirements.

This project's cleanroom area uses 100mm thick polyurethane sandwich panels (PIR) with thermal conductivity ≤0.022W/m·K, and 0.5mm thick galvanized steel + food-grade polyester coating on both sides. Wall and roof panels are joined with aluminum alloy profiles, and sealant uses food-grade silicone sealant. Buffer rooms and air showers are installed between clean and non-clean areas to ensure stable temperature, humidity, and cleanliness.

Manila is located on a typhoon path, with basic wind pressure designed at 0.85kN/m² (equivalent to Category 12 typhoon). The structure uses a rigid frame system with rigid column bases and full penetration groove welds at beam-column joints. The roof uses concealed fastening sandwich panels with strong wind uplift resistance. Wind clamps are added at eaves and gables to ensure the roof is not lifted during strong typhoons. Structural calculations consider wind suction, wind pressure, and typhoon eccentric loads.

Sea freight from Shenzhen to Manila Port takes approximately 5-7 days, and customs clearance after arrival typically takes 3-7 days. We recommend clients prepare import permits and FDA certification in advance. ZhongSai provides complete packing lists, commercial invoices, certificates of origin (FORM E for tariff preferences), and material certificates to ensure fast customs clearance.
