In honor of its 25th Anniversary and National Arts Month this February, Magna Prime Chemical Technologies, Inc., in partnership with the United Artists Society, proudly announced the winners of the Sinclair National Art Competition on February 26, 2026, at the Sinclair Pro Store. The nationwide initiative champions creativity and demonstrates how advanced paint technologies can transform contemporary art and design.

After months of evaluation, the winners emerged as exceptional expressions of Filipino talent and vision, bringing ideas to life with Sinclair Makaw Microcement, Lime Plaster, and Effect Paints. Their works show that when artistry meets innovation, surfaces become more than painted—they tell stories, evoke emotions, and create experiences.

Mr. Derrick A. Tan, President and CEO of Magna Prime Chemical Technologies, Inc., emphasized the company’s commitment:

“Through this competition, we provide Filipino artists a platform not only to showcase their creativity, but to explore how advanced decorative finishes can unite interior design, wall art, and architecture in one powerful medium,” he said. “This initiative celebrates the ingenuity and passion of Filipino artists, proving that local talent can shine globally. By integrating art and technology, we are opening opportunities for the decorative wall design industry to grow, while creating sustainable livelihood opportunities for the country’s thriving art communities, and inspiring a new generation of artists to imagine, innovate, and shape their communities.”
