ECO GIVES BACK
DONATE TO THE PHILIPPINES
Eco Gives Back. Eco Building Products, Inc. is proud to serve our local community here in San Diego, and communities around the world; especially during times of need. Keeping in step with an intense desire to promote change and lead from the front, Eco has taken its knowledge, leadership and enthusiasm to the forefront of humanitarian operations both here at home and abroad. From the rubble in Haiti, to the flooded Ninth Ward in New Orleans, and to the devastated Eastern U.S. seaboard after 2012’s Super Storm Sandy; Eco gives back. This mission continues today as we deploy our support, resources and knowledge into the hardest hit areas of the Philippines in the wake of Typhoon Haiyan. Founded on brick and mortar principles, Eco is devoted to this mission and we’re asking for your help.
Immediate Relief Needed Now. Eco is in the midst or fabricating relief shelters for immediate deployment into the Philippines. In addition to relief shelters, immediate relief is needed now in the form of clothing, footwear, diapers, essential hygiene items, ropes, tarps and much more. This is where we need your help!

- Footwear (Sandals, flip-flops)
- Diapers

Next Steps for Eco. Once we begin shipping containers of our Eco Shelters, we will load the donated materials into those containers for shipment overseas. We are currently working through partnerships and connections we have established over the years in the Philippines, but the mission to help the thousands that have lost so much will require all of us to come together. This tragic event is larger than what is being reported in the media, and it will take the efforts of many individuals, families, charitable organizations, companies, etc. to give the people of the Philippines the relief they so desperately need. Your donation will help, and together we can.
The Eco Shelter is a customizable pre-engineered structure, that comes pre-cut and ready to assemble with hammer and nails – making it ideal for rapid response relief housing, events, offices, meeting halls, medical clinics and more. An entry level Eco Shelter can be assembled in no time – we timed two experienced carpenters and in just over :33 minutes the entire structure is framed and ready for trim. In under 2 hours the entire shelter is finished and ready for paint.
Relief Shelter of Choice. Unlike on-site jobs, all Eco Shelters are built in a quality-controlled factory setting, and are constructed completely out of Eco Red Shield™ Protected Lumber. The Eco Shelter is engineered to withstand hurricane force winds of 165mph, earthquakes and is protected from mold, termites and fire. We are proving Eco Shelter is the smartest choice when it comes to pre-engineered kit structures – Eco Shelter is durable, cost-effective and completely customizable.
Waterproof like a Boat. In addition to being constructed out of Eco’s Red Shield protected lumber, Eco Shelters receive a protective coating of Eco Disaster BreakTM. Eco Disaster Break is a Class-A Fire Rated, UV Resistant, high performance, non-toxic, acrylic coating that forms a waterproof and seamless monolithic membrane. When applied to Eco Red Shield™ protected wood surfaces, EDB™ forms the most advanced defensive construction assembly available against water penetration, fire ignition, mold, rot and termites.
