ABOUT THE COMPANY

The year 1959 marked the birth of our parent company, New Creation Manufacturing, which began the manufacturing of bed sheets, comforters, pillowcases, and towels. The vision to this day is to become the leading manufacturer of high quality bed linens in the country and the company strives upon being the best; from not only a product standpoint, but from a service point of view as well.

In 1972, the company ventured into infants and children’s wear catering to both the international and domestic markets and is now one of the leading manufacturers of infants wear in the country. The company has also acquired several international licenses which all began in 1996 upon the acquisition of Disney license. From that point forward, the company was able to develop strong relationship with Warner Bros., NBA, Hot Wheels, Barbie, Marvel, Justice League & Sanrio.

In 2003, the company achieved a unique milestone as Canadian Manufacturing became its own entity, finding a new home but still under the same corporate umbrella.

Spearheaded by company President Mr. Hiro Asandas, Managing Director Mr. Ravi Daryanani and a collection of spirited as well as very dedicated management group, the company has continued to prosper and ideally, will continue to ascend to greater heights as the years press on.

Tweet

Scotch-Brite™, through its The Cleanup Project, helped the Cancer Institute of the UP-PGH sanitize its facilities as part of the brand’s regular advocacy to help clean various communities it serves. Scotch-Brite™has been driving its reputation of providing brilliant cleaning tools to help make the world a brighter place.

Volunteer employees of 3M Philippines, along with the Cancer Institute’s staff, used Scotch-Brite™ cleaning tools to make the cancer facility cleaner and brighter in time for the Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October. The activity covered the clinic, wards, and the rest of the Cancer Institute building. It also coincided with the Cancer Institute’s quarterly general cleaning schedule.

The Cancer Institute was closed to all patients during the cleanup to avoid inconvenience and ensure thorough implementation of the project. Part of this project is a donation of brand new Scotch-Brite™ cleaning tools courtesy of 3M Philippines to help the cancer facility sustain its maintenance and cleanliness policies and practices. The donated cleaning tools included outdoor gloves, furniture cloth, mops, mop wringer bucket, among many others.

“We at 3M are committed to help provide people with cleaner, brighter environments. We believe that the best way to achieve this is to give them efficient and high-quality cleaning tools that our Scotch-Brite™ brand is known for. Helping the staff of the UP-PGH Cancer Institute implement their regular general cleaning is a great opportunity for us and our employees to see this commitment through,” said Darwin Florendo, Home Care Division of 3M Philippines.

The Scotch-Brite™ brand’s The Clean-up Project aims to brighten select areas in communities by implementing clean-up activities using Scotch-Brite™ cleaning tools. The Scotch-Brite™ brand of cleaning tools is recognized for its effective sponges, scouring and cleaning pads. It also has cleaning tools that are effective for floor care, a range of cloth wipes for cleaning different kinds of surfaces, and gloves for hand protection. 

The Clean-up Project initially helped West Rembo Elementary School, and is intended to help more institutions in the coming year. “We hope to encourage other organizations to help us in bringing The Clean Up Project forward so we can help turn more communities all over the country become cleaner and brighter in years to come," Mr. Florendo said.

WALT DISNEY releases new trailer for WRECK-IT RALPH.

Walt Disney releases a new trailer for the Video Game inspired animated feature Wreck-it Ralph. 

Wreck-It-Ralph looks like loads of fun, and that’s partially due to the cameos from famous video game characters. 

Synopsis:

Walt Disney Animation Studios and Emmy(R)-winning director Rich Moore (TV’s “The Simpsons,” “Futurama”) take moviegoers on a hilarious, arcade-game-hopping journey in “Wreck-It Ralph.” Ralph (voice of John C. Reilly, “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby,” “Step Brothers”) is tired of being overshadowed by Fix-It Felix (voice of Jack McBrayer, “30 Rock”), the “good guy” star of their game who always gets to save the day. But after decades doing the same thing andseeing all the glory go to Felix, Ralph decides he’s tired of playing the role of a bad guy. He takes matters into his own massive hands and sets off on a game-hopping journey across the arcade through every generation of video games to prove he’s got what it takes to be a hero. On his quest, he meets the tough-as-nails Sergeant Calhoun (voice of Jane Lynch, TV’s “Glee”) from the first-person action game Hero’s Duty. But it’s the feisty misfit Vanellope von Schweetz (voice of Sarah Silverman, “The Sarah Silverman Program”) from the candy-coated cart racing game, Sugar Rush, whose world is threatened when Ralph accidentally unleashes a deadly enemy that threatens the entire arcade. Will Ralph realize his dream and save the day before it’s too late?

Opening in local cinemas on October 31, 2012 to be distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures International through Columbia Pictures.

'X Factor' final six reveal their biggest battles

Tweet

For the final six, being the next multimedia superstar and winning “The X Factor Philippines” are not just a battle of charisma, stage presence, and unique vocal prowess but also a personal battle to overcome their lifelong struggles that might have driven them off course from realizing their dreams of making it in the music industry.

Jeric Medina from Paranaque has been battling weight problems since he was a kid. He may be living a privileged life but he grew up insecure about his physique. This drove him to commit to losing weight through exercise and diet and eventually lost more than 70 lbs. With his new physique, he was more confident to pursue his longtime dream of becoming a singer.

His teammate Gabriel Maturan of Dapitan City is fighting a different battle in his life as he has long struggled to have a complete family. Growing up, Gabriel has had three men he considered fathers, one of whom was a Danish national. That was why he lived and became a working student in Denmark. When his mom and his second stepfather parted ways, they returned to the country and lived in Zamboanga Del Norte, where he found his third dad. Will he make his fathers proud by becoming the grand winner?

Kedebon Colim of Cebu faces a tough battle in the competition. Aside from struggling with poverty, Kedebon is also in a constant battle to prove himself to the viewing public that he deserves to be in the final six. Despite the insults thrown at him, Kedebon respects people’s opinions and just does his best every week. This is no surprise to his family and friends because Kedebon has always been strong and hardworking. In fact, he even worked as an internet café attendant and construction worker at the same time just to help in his family’s finances.

Just like Kedebon, Allen Sta. Maria is also fighting poverty. The youngest finalist from Nueva Ecija would join various amateur singing contests and get gigs as a singer to support her studies and buy stuff for herself like clothes and shoes. Allen never became champion in the many singing contests she joined. Will her fate change in “The X Factor Philippines?”

KZ Tandingan of Digos City is determined to win the competition. KZ has always loved singing so much that she would belt out songs just about everywhere. Unfortunately, she encountered throat problems that affected her singing voice. She can no longer belt out high notes like before and thus suffered from low self-esteem. But with the help of her family, she was able to find her love for music once more and searched for a unique singing style with her band. Now that she is in the “X Factor,” KZ is ready to give it all to prove that the country’s music industry is not just for belters and smooth-skinned, pretty artists.

Carrying the banner of the Groups category is all-male group Daddy’s home composed of Allan Silonga, Herbert Silonga, Eric Dacanay, and Jerome Icatar. All professionals and aged above 31, Daddy’s Home is in a fight against time as their shot at making it in the industry tends to be shorter than the rest of the younger contenders. Aside from the competition, they also face conflicting priorities since they have families to provide for. Making it this far, Daddy’s Home threats their families as inspiration to win the competition and finally achieve their goal of penetrating the mainstream scene.

Who among them will become the country’s next big multimedia superstar? Whose ‘x factor’ will win over viewers and judge-mentors hearts?
