Global Manufacturer And Supplier Of Electrical Products Himel Empowers Filipinos With Access To Safe Electricity

To achieve the goal of reaching 100% while maintaining safety, standards compliance of electrical products becomes paramount. Conventionally, high-quality electrical products that meet international safety standards have been out of reach for most people. But Himel is changing this perception.

Himel, a Spanish origin brand with presence in over 50 countries, offers value engineered electrical products for Low-Voltage Distribution, Final Distribution, Power Management, Motor Control and Protection, Industrial Components and Home Electric. Founded by an entrepreneur in Barcelona, Spain in 1958, Himel started as a manufacturer of quality electrical products before expanding across continents. The brand throughout the years has successfully combined global expertise and local knowledge to set the standard for high-quality electrical components. 

“Himel has always given utmost value to empowering access, both for safe electricity and choice of cost-effective products. We don’t see safety as a separate entity or an ‘add-on’ but instead, we commit to delivering it in every single product,” said Shrinivas Chebbi, Global Head of Business. “As a global specialist of the affordable electrical portfolio, we offer a broader range of low and medium-voltage products for homes, industries, and commercial setups. Such plural expertise is difficult to match in our price range.”

The Philippines has three key power-related challenges—electricity demand is consistently increasing, the supply of electricity is often short of demand, and there is a discrepancy in access to electricity in the city vs. rural areas. With state-of-the-art manufacturing and value engineering, Himel is uniquely positioned to accelerate the development and expansion of safer electrical infrastructure within reach of the masses.

“Himel has always been a brand propelled by strong distributing channels. Our solid on-ground network and growing retail footprint ensure that high quality is always within reach. For our partners, we create and amplify opportunities so that they keep up with consumer needs and register good growth,” Shrinivas explains. He further elaborates his regional ambition, “In the Philippines, we are well equipped to support electrical installation in urban and suburban social housing, commercial establishments, and small-medium industries.”

Himel is represented in the region with four official distributors and 759 authorized resellers. To amplify accessibility and get closer to the goal of seamless digital retailing, the brand has begun offering products through official stores on Lazada and Shopee. “We want to offer our customers the omnichannel experience. Digital or brick and mortar, Himel products should always be in reach. We are investing in strengthening our supply chain and delivery,” Shrinivas said.
