The growing need for housing units nationwide has highlighted the need for the development of an alternative material to reduce dependence on traditional wood - based construction.

RAPID FORMING CORPORATION was established in 1995. In that same year, a 1.7-hectare Plant was built within the Light Industry and Science Park of the Philippines (LISP) in Cabuyao, Laguna, investing in modern equipment and technology. It was formed to set a high standard of quality in manufacturing and supplying light gauge structural steel housing components for the construction industry. It aims to provide high quality, environment friendly and cost – efficient alternative to the traditional wood based construction.

Rapid is capable of producing steel sections in a wide assortment of sizes with high dimensional accuracy to comply with end user specifications.

To attest to this high standard of quality, Rapid is the first light – gauge steel manufacturer with an ISO 9001:2000 Certification for Process Design Control.
