The demand for high-performance, safe, and sustainable flooring is increasing across all major industries in the country. It is important to choose a trusted organization that offers world-class service and products.

When it comes to providing the best flooring surfaces in the country, one of the organizations that have consistently performed well is International Industry Partners Incorporated (IIPI). Since its start in 2009, the company has become one of the most important industry partners in the country. As the organization celebrates its 10th year in 2019, let us take a look back at its early beginnings. Let us also take a look at the important milestones that have helped it grow as a company in the industry.

 

Early Years of IIPI

President of IIPI

International Industry Partners Incorporated was founded in 2009 by Anthony Laborte. Upon being founded, the goal of the company was to become a trade and service company. It was something that was envisioned by Anthony’s father, Antonio Laborte. As the company began its operations, it was able to slowly become a flooring contractor that provided high-performance floor surfaces to various local companies, facilities, and industries.

In 2012, IIPI received its first major flooring contract from Nestle Philippines. The company is known as one of the largest food and beverage companies locally and internationally. It is important that they have flooring surfaces that can withstand the daily rigors of producing high-quality goods. It is also imperative that they have flooring that can keep their personnel and equipment safe.

Eventually, the success of this contract led to more projects in other parts of the country such as in Davao and Cebu. By then, IIPI had transitioned to importing and applying resin flooring systems for a diverse set of clientele. This development was crucial for the company, as it gave them the best opportunity to contribute to a wide range of companies and facilities.

As IIPI received more projects across the country, they had also developed a number of partnerships that enabled them to improve the quality of their products and services. One of the most important of these partnerships was with Flowcrete Asia, which is the world’s leading manufacturer of high-performance polyurethane, epoxy, and MMA flooring for various industries.
