Metaphil Builds For Vietnam
 
Metaphil, a division of the Aboitiz Construction Group, gets a USD 1 million fabrication project from Metso Minerals (Australia) Limited.

The project covers fabrication, painting, rubber lining and trial assembly of 35 flotation cells. Managed by Metaphil’s fabrication manager Edwin Quiapo, the cells will be delivered in December 2007.

The flotation cells provide the highest level of separation efficiency necessary for the extraction of platinum. The cells will be used in the Nui Phao Mining Venture in Nguyen Province in Vietnam.

Metso Minerals project manager Mike Beevers says, “Metaphil, besting Indonesia and Malaysia, asked all the right questions and made us confident that we can
work efficiently and effectively together.

Metaphil, an ISO company, is recognised as having the capacity and infrastructure to deliver on quality within a very tight schedule,” Beevers adds.

“You can count on us! We commit to quality and reliability and will protect the customer’s interest,” assures Metaphil chair and ceo Roberto Aboitiz.

Metaphil, a local company in Cebu, is trusted for its nearly 3 decades of quality construction and fabrication performance. It has worldwide presence and boasts of
world-class quality.

Early this year, Metaphil hit local news when it shipped 5 units of 20-meter by 23-meter thickeners to New Caledonia. Each thickener weighed 243-tons.

Strategically located to provide cost effective supply to Southeast Asia and Oceania, Metaphil is being considered for a long-term relationship with Metso.

As the global market leader in mineral processing equipment, Metso Minerals looks at Metaphil as a supplier of high quality engineering equipment and services.

Metso Minerals is a business area of Metso Corporation, a company with net sales of EUR 5 billion in 2006 and quoted on the stock exchanges in Helsinki and New York.
