MANILA, PHILIPPINES – Xian Afford Steel Co,. Ltd., a leading provider of turnkey steel solutions, has successfully completed a 5,000-square-meter feed warehouse for a 1-million-bird layer operation in the Philippines. A new time-lapse video captures the entire 8-week construction process, showcasing the speed and efficiency of pre-engineered steel buildings (PEB) for the agricultural sector.
The project addresses critical needs for the modern poultry industry: massive feed storage capacity, biosecurity, and protection from the Philippines’ tropical climate—including high humidity, heavy rainfall, and the risk of typhoons.
Key Features Delivered:
Superior Protection: The hot-dip galvanized steel frame and anti-corrosion sandwich panels create a robust barrier against moisture and pests, safeguarding valuable feed and equipment.
Rapid Construction: The prefabricated components were manufactured off-site and assembled quickly, minimizing disruption to farm operations. The time-lapse video clearly shows this efficient assembly process.
Large, Clear-Span Interior: The column-free design allows for unobstructed movement of forklifts and feed trucks, maximizing storage capacity and operational efficiency.
Ventilation & Climate Control: The structure was designed to integrate with modern ventilation systems, which is crucial for maintaining feed quality in a hot and humid environment.
A project manager for the farm stated: “Speed was critical for us. This new warehouse needed to be operational before the next harvest. The prefab steel solution not only met our timeline but also provided a much more durable structure than traditional methods for our long-term needs.”

This project serves as a prime model for modernizing Philippine agriculture. It demonstrates how advanced engineering and efficient construction can directly support food security and local economic growth.
