Manila Bulletin
|July 01 2025
A new exhibit opening today, July 1, will showcase the modern design possibilities of pandan weaving, a centuries-old Filipino craft, as the Department of Science and Technology—Forest Products Research and Development Institute (DOST-FPRDI) pushes for innovation-driven support for local artisans.
Launching at the DOST-FPRDI’s Forest Products Innovation and Training Center (FPITC) in Los Baños, INTERCONNECT3D: Lalang Pandan seeks to present pandan not just as a traditional weaving material, but as a flexible resource for high-value and globally competitive products.
"By harnessing the potential of pandan and turning it into high-value products, we not only preserve our weaving heritage, but also make sustainable economic opportunities for our communities," DOST Secretary Renato U. Solidum said in a statement.
