GCL88 delivered full electrical and low-voltage integration across multiple flagship stores for KK Group's three retail brands in the Philippines. Each store demanded high-density LED lighting control and large-format digital display power, robust CCTV & access management, together with clean power distribution capable of supporting thousands of product display units simultaneously.
GCL88 infrastructure contributed to the Philippines' first Uptime Institute Tier III "Double Certified" (Design & Build) data center. This 3MW facility in Caloocan houses 300 high-density racks and features advanced Liquid Cooling technology. Our integration supports 99.98% uptime and seamless connectivity to major international submarine cable systems (Bifrost & SEA-H2X).
GCL88 implemented a comprehensive technology infrastructure for YTO Express's logistics hub. This included a high-density CCTV surveillance network, wireless AP deployment for its expanding call center, and integrated digital advertising displays. We also delivered a turnkey server room environment featuring precision rack integration with UPS and NVR systems.
A high-end entertainment integration showcasing GCL88's advanced technical capabilities. We delivered an AI-based visual recognition system driving a multi-projection interactive floor, synchronized with a custom acoustic-optical linkage system. This project demonstrates our ability to handle complex human-machine interaction and synchronized sensory environments.
Northern Mindanao's first condo-by-the-bay development required a full MEP package across four low-rise residential buildings. GCL88 handled complete electrical installation (strong & weak current), domestic water supply, drainage systems, and low-voltage security networks — delivering a ready-to-occupancy environment with zero general contractor dependency.
