Founded in 1985, Splash was able to grow from a Php12,000 backyard business into a Php4 billion enterprise through the vision, innovation, and commitment of its founders, Dr. Rolando B.

Being consistently in the Top 300 corporations in the Philippines since 1998, the Company has established its reputation as one of the formidable players in the Philippine personal care industry.
In 2002, the Company invested in a Php400 million state-of-the-art manufacturing complex in Canumay, Valenzuela City which is expected to meet the Company’s capacity requirements in the medium-term.
The Company established the Splash Research Institute in 1997.
