Durian Fiber Products
Paper made from durian rinds offers tender filament and better quality than mulberry-pulp paper. Durian rinds may be blended with fruit or vegetable fibers to produce different kinds of paper.

Designs can be made by adding rose petals or leaves soon after sieving, but before drying it in the sunshine. Beautiful designs depend on the maker’s skills. Paper made from durian rinds is natural and has no caustic soda, thus safe to users.(see http://www.pinoybisnes.com/business-ideas/handmade-paper-from-durian-rinds/)

Wagas Crafts was formally organized in the Philippines last 1998 as Sole Proprietorship to engage in the business of manufacturing, retailing and wholesaling of wooden handicrafts. At first, the company exclusively developed the WOODEN COLLAPSIBLE BASKETS, and later popularly known as "Magic Baskets" all over the world. Then, another product line was developed and described as the WOODEN FLYING MOBILES, and commonly known as "Magic Mobiles".

Basically, its strategy was to capture the domestic market by joining crafts fairs and bazaars, and consequently, establish and operate outlets in strategic areas like big malls all over the Philippines. Its guiding philosophy was to "consume first its own production, and the rest to the export market".

Currently, the company is maintaining nine (9) retail outlets all over country. The basic identity of its products is principally handcrafted and hand painted. Even with the advent of the modern technology, it has maintained the distinct touch derivative from the expressions of handmade products.

The company is operating a factory manned by gifted-skilled workers capable of producing a container load of its products every month. It is catering export orders to the United States of America, Asia, Canada, France, and other parts of the globe.

In the year 2003, the company has introduced a new concept of Collapsible Baskets described as "HANDY BASKETS ". It has introduced an "anti-tilt locking system" and "huge basket capacity" with uniform size of 18mm X 400mm X 400mm for all its selected designs. The main purpose of its new concept is to create a perfect functional decor. For simplicity and convenience, it has adopted a "one size, one price" policy.

LOUNGE - LEO COLLECTION

8:16 PM |


Made from fragmented wood and wicker materials.

Passad is a hiligaynon word which means “to create.”

Theye create functional green works of art, made only from gmelina wood—a fast growing plantation tree abundant in this part of the islands.

Passad pieces are the result of a labor-intensive and time-consuming process.

Very much like assembling the fragmented pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, local artisans slowly and randomly put together each gmelina chip, piece by piece.

No chip, no matter how small, ever goes to waste. finally, the object is sculpted by hand.

This is your assurance of the uniqueness and quality of your passad.
