Powering a Greener Fleet: Isuzu S&E Series EK5 supports Sanitary Care Products Asia
Reinforcing its commitment to environmental sustainability, Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC), through its Isuzu Dasmariñas dealership, delivered two units of the Isuzu EK5 Tractor Heads to Sanitary Care Products Asia Inc. (SCPA), one of the Philippines’ leading hygiene paper product manufacturers. With operations across 23 facilities nationwide, SCPA is actively reducing its environmental footprint through logistics upgrades—making Isuzu’s Euro V compliant EK5 units a strategic fit for its greener supply chain.
“Our new Isuzu EK5 tractor heads are EURO V complaint, reflecting our commitment to provide cleaner, more sustainable business solutions. Engineered to reduce fuel emissions without compromising power and performance, making this model the ideal choice for companies like SCPA which aim to align with environmental standard while maintaining operations efficiency,” said IPC Vice president for Sales, Toshihiko Kojima.
Environmental Impact and Operational Efficiency
Aside from reducing emissions, the Isuzu EK5, part of the S&E Series of heavy-duty truck models, is built for reliability and performance so operators and business owners can depend on these vehicles for years to come. Equipped with a GH11E six-cylinder inline turbocharged engine that can produce up to 415 PS Max Power and 1,990 N-m Max Torque, this tractor head is designed for heavy-duty operations. Optimized safety and convenience, the Isuzu EK5 is also equipped with the Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) and the Advanced Instrument Cluster with Driving-Coaching. These features ensure that SCPA and all business partners can move their raw materials and finished products efficiently, safely, and sustainably across the country.
“This partnership with Isuzu Philippines is more than just a fleet upgrade—it’s a reflection of our values as a company. We’ve always believed that sustainability should be woven into every aspect of our operations. These trucks help ensure that every roll of tissue, every napkin, and every hygiene product we produce reaches our customers in a way that’s better for the environment,” said Donald S. Flores, SCPA’s CSL and Production Group Manager.
By adopting cleaner technology, SCPA underscores its role as a responsible corporate citizen and a forward-thinking industry leader in sustainable logistics. The upgrade strengthens the company’s supply chain while reinforcing its broader mission to deliver not only hygiene and cleanliness, but also environmental care.
