The company was established in January 1998, formed by the integration of Rhea Manufacturing Corporation (the manufacturing arm of Philusa Corporation) and Apollo Chemicals, Inc.
Rhea Manufacturing Corp. was established in 1975 while Apollo Chemicals started in 1972. Both are subsidiary companies of the Mercury Group of Companies, Inc. and are manufacturers and re-packers of Pharmaceutical/Consumer products. Both of the companies’ products are distributed by Philusa Corporation.
Because of Philusa’s successful marketing/distribution efforts, it was decided to put up a new modern plant at Laguna Technopark in Sta. Rosa, Laguna that would focus on manufacturing and repacking. Hence, the production facilities and activities of Philusa Corporation (which was under Rhea Manufacturing Corp.) and Apollo were integrated into one organization and location – Telstar Manufacturing Corporation.
Today,Telstar manufactures household remedies and consumer products, and repackage commonly used chemicals. It’s product line is concentrated mostly on external use preparation, namely: toilet deodorizers, rubbing alcohol, liniments, cosmetics, and other household products.
