Introducing Super Gatong, a progressive innovation in coal briquetting technology, produced by Filsystems in partnership with the Department of Energy and CCUJ of Japan, designed to help conserve our nation’s precious natural resources.
With Super Gatong, we can now offer a more sustainable and efficient approach to reduce the environmental impact of traditional coal production methods.
The Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air said the country’s existing 10-gigawatt coal capacity was responsible for 630 air pollution-related deaths in the Philippines for the year 2019.
Coal-fired power plants produce more than 100-million tons of coal ash every year. More than half of that wasted ends up in our bodies of water, contaminating waterways and fresh water supply.
As of the latest study, only 24% of the Philippines’s forest area remains and we are losing around 52,000 trees per day. One major factor is the mining of trees that will be used for coal production.
Coal released the most carbon dioxide (CO2) per unit energy, thereby being the largest producers of man-made CO2. . These gasses trap heat in the earth’s lower atmosphere, increasing the average global temperature. Consequences include drought, sea level rise, flooding, extreme weather conditions, and species loss.
Super Gatong is created and designed to reduce the environmental impact of traditional coal production methods. By providing a sustainable approach to coal briquetting, we help conserve the precious natural resources of the Philippines.
Our innovative technology for coal briquetting is a game-changer in the energy industry. By showcasing the potential of sustainable energy solutions, we aim to inspire change in fuel-energy attitudes among end-users.
We are committed to contributing to the development of high-skilled labor in heavy industries across the Philippines by promoting efficient industrial practices. In doing so, we hope to create more employment and growth opportunities in the region.

Super Gatong briquettes produce no smoke or odor during combustion, making them ideal for use in a variety of settings, including homes, businesses, and industrial facilities.
Our briquettes feature a special protein binding that significantly reduces sulfur dioxide (SO2) emissions, helping to minimize the environmental impact of coal production.
Super Gatong briquettes require less fuel and waiting time for ignition, with complete combustion achieved in less than 20 minutes.
Unlike conventional charcoal-based briquettes, Super Gatong briquettes are stronger and more resilient against transportation and handling risks.
