Philippine Publishing House exists as an institution for the urgent publication and circulation of books and periodicals that address the physical, mental, social, moral, and spiritual well-being of the church, community, and people groups, making them ready for the coming of the Lord.

In August 1905, a literature evangelist from Australia, R.C. Caldwell, began selling English and Spanish books in Luzon. These books were the initial seeds of Seventh-day Adventism in the Philippines. With the coming of L.V. Finster in 1908, seeds were sown in a larger scale until the formal organization of the church in the Philippines in 1911.

In 1913, a secondhand foot-powered Colt's Armory job press from the United States was installed in Santa Ana, Manila. After a few months of its operation, the machinery was moved to Malate.

Here in 1914, in a dilapidated horse stable, the House was born.

In 1915, a small, one-story publishing house was built in Pasay with James Wallace, an American missionary, as the first manager. Since then, other missionaries followed: E.A. Moon, W.J. Blacker, J.A. Leland, N.B. Vinning, E.H. Capman, V.D. Dortch, H.W. Bedwell, E.A. Pender, and W.D. Jemson.

The increase of work necessitated the renovation of the building, done three times, and the improvement and expansion of printing facilities.

As World War II rumbled to a close in 1945, the fleeing Japanese forces burned the publishing house, leaving the plant and equipment in ruins. But the Adventist World Headquarters in Washington, D.C., with the financial aid from the Pacific Press Publishing Association, made it possible to build and equip a new publishing house in Caloocan City, Metro Manila. The foundations of the new building were laid in July 1946, and the plant went into operation one and half years later.

In 1960, Your Health and Your Home began circulation. This publication later transformed into the now widely read Health & Home, the flagship of the House.

In 1970 the first managerial responsibility was handed over to a Filipino in the person of Elias L. Villanueva. Jeremias G. Gallego followed him. Then came Violeta C. Palma, the first female manager. In 2000, Gideon B. Buhat sat as PPH president. Currently, Florante P. Ty is the newly installed president.

Today, Philippine Publishing House continues printing a variety of books, periodicals, magazines, and tracts in English and some major languages of the Philippines.
