MANILA, Philippines — The Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines Inc. (CAMPI) was recognized as one of the Environmental Sustainability Partners at the 2026 Gawad Kabalikat sa Kapaligiran of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources –Environmental Management Bureau (DENR-EMB).
The recognition acknowledges organizations and partners that demonstrate strong environmental performance, support sustainability initiatives and uphold environmental regulations.
For CAMPI, the recognition underscores the value of close coordination between regulators and the automotive sector in advancing national environmental goals while supporting responsible industry growth.
Sustainability is one of the strategic pillars supporting CAMPI’s vision of fostering mobility transition in the Philippines. It stands alongside Technology and Innovation, Vehicle and Road Safety and Industry Development in serving as the organization’s framework to establish automotive as a key sector with significant economic and societal contribution.
CAMPI advocates for a multi pathway approach to carbon neutrality, guided by a technology-neutral strategy to ensure a balanced transition toward electrification. It also supports policy research for carbon neutral fuels and sustainable and renewable energy. The organization aims to leverage its international partnerships and maximize industry dialogues to learn best practices and policy approaches toward promoting a circular economy in the automotive industry.
In support of CAMPI’s sustainability objectives, member companies continue to promote cleaner and more efficient vehicle technologies while enhancing sustainability practices within their operations.
“Receiving this award is a milestone achievement for CAMPI and its member companies. Sustainability is an important pillar of the automotive industry and requires a shared blueprint for change. CAMPI and its members thank the government represented by the DENR for this recognition which motivates us to push the boundaries even further and driving meaningful changes within the automotive industry,” CAMPI vice president Rhys Alexei Murillo said.
The recognition highlights the shared responsibility of both public and private sectors in addressing environmental challenges.
