Flexenclosure expands in Southeast Asia

  1 min 48 sec to read

April 3: Flexenclosure, a designer and manufacturer of prefabricated data centre and telecom site power systems, has received a multi-million dollar eCentre data order for Globe Telecom in the Philippines.  Issuing a press statement, the company said that the facility will be deployed on the southern island of Mindanao.

According to the company, prefabrication of the eCentre has commenced at Flexenclosure’s manufacturing plant in Sweden, where it will also be tested before being shipped to the Philippines for on-site construction.  It is expected to be commissioned and fully operational early in the third quarter of this year.

Flexenclosure has teamed up with Orissa Wicomm to deliver the new facility, with Manila-based Orissa providing system integration and ongoing support once it is operational.

“We are committed to delivering market-leading services to our customers. On the network infrastructure side, this means flexible, modular and low cost,” said Gil Genio, chief technology and information officer/chief strategy officer of Globe Telecom.  “Our new data centre in Mindanao is part of our network build to ramp up capacity and provide innovative services to our growing broadband, enterprise and consumer market segments. It employs this modular architecture that allows us to rapidly add infrastructure with growth."

Momentum in Asia Pacific

Flexenclosure said that the project is its first project in the Philippines and adds to a fast-growing list of deployments in emerging markets in around the world.  The Asia Pacific region in particular has shown significant growth, with Flexenclosure expanding its footprint with recent orders in Australia and a number of Pacific island nations. The company also has a strong and long-standing presence in the Myanmar telecom site power system market.

“With new projects in Australia, Palau, Samoa, Fiji and Myanmar, 2017 was a year of major expansion for us in Asia Pacific,” said David King, CEO of Flexenclosure. “This latest project with Globe Telecom and Orissa Wicomm in the Philippines marks the start of what we expect will be another year of significant growth in the region.”
