In March 1999, Lexmark heralded its arrival in Asia Pacific with the groundbreaking of its 380,000 square foot state of the art manufacturing facility in the heart of Mactan Economic Zone II in Lapu-lapu, Cebu Philippines. By January 12, 2000, Lexmark International Philippines, Inc. (LIPI) Bottle Assembly Facility was formally inaugurated.

| Even before its inauguration, LIPI Bottle Assembly facility rolled out its first batch of inkjet cartridges ahead of schedule and captured the prestigious Lexmark Triple Crown Award for 1999; thus, setting a precedent for more manufacturing breakthroughs unrivalled in the corporate’s history.
By the 3rd Quarter of 2000, LIPI began the construction of its Circuit Assembly Facility. In the following year, its Bottle Assembly Facility received the ISO 9002 certification as well as qualifying for the same certification for its Circuit Assembly Facility well before its completion in the 4th Quarter of the same year.
During the 1st quarter of 2002, LIPI began its Circuit Assembly production and was certified by the British Standards Institute for the ISO 9001:2000 by the same year.
These outstanding achievements affirmed LIPI’s passion for excellence shared by each member of the Cebu Lexmark family.
