COTECCONS HANDS OVER VIET Y STEEL PLANT – A NEW MILESTONE FOR HIGH-TECH INDUSTRY IN NORTHERN VIETNAM

Coteccons has successfully handed over the Viet Y Steel Plant at Nam Cau Kien Industrial Park, Thuy Nguyen District, Hai Phong City – a flagship project in the high-tech industrial construction sector in Northern Vietnam.

With complex technical requirements and high precision, the project is a clear testament to Coteccons’ professional, precise, and internationally-standardized construction capabilities – especially in industrial projects integrating high-tech production lines.

A Technically and Constructionally “Heavy” Project

The plant is built on an area of 3 hectares, including various components such as the main workshop, auxiliary areas, landscape infrastructure, and particularly the connection area between the old and new workshops. The overall structure is a perfect combination of solid reinforced concrete foundations and prefabricated steel frames up to 20 meters high, with three steel frame systems spanning approximately 28 meters each, using a total steel structure weight of 5,000 tons.

The steel frame structure with a span of 28 meters has been constructed to align with the operational design of the plant. 

Leveraging experience in large-scale industrial projects, Coteccons has implemented methodical construction, tightly controlling the entire process, meeting stringent requirements for quality, safety, and progress.

Precision to Every Millimeter – Foundation for High-Tech Production Lines

As an industrial project integrating the most modern equipment, 100% imported from the world’s leading steel group Danieli (Italy), the Viet Y Steel Plant project sets special requirements for precision in construction – particularly in machine foundation components and equipment installation positions. 

The modern conveyor belt system has been integrated into the foundation of the project’s machinery.  

The machine foundation at the project has a complex structure, bearing heavy loads, and is designed with multiple elevations, steps, and special shapes to meet the installation requirements of high-tech production lines. Some rolling stands, such as JD21 and JD41, are installed through waiting plates arranged both vertically and horizontally.

The production line system is installed and anchored to the reinforced concrete machine foundations via pre-installed technological bolt holes

Notably, the entire project has over 5,000 bolt holes for equipment installation, each position constructed with a precision tolerance not exceeding ±10 mm. This required meticulous positioning and execution, ensuring the technical standards needed to integrate European-designed automation equipment were met effectively.

Additionally, the technical connection between the old and expanded workshops has been synchronously implemented by Coteccons, ensuring seamless production lines operate accurately without errors during operation.

The old workshop and the expanded workshop were seamlessly connected, enabling the production line to successfully conduct trial operations and produce the “first steel product”.

To achieve this near-perfect precision, Coteccons’ engineering team has closely coordinated with the investor, and various departments to implement specialized construction methods, mastering everything from shop drawings to actual implementation on-site. All procedures were carried out under strict safety controls, ensuring the highest construction quality, and laying a solid foundation for the subsequent operation of high-tech production lines.

Optimal Construction Measures, Aiming for Sustainable Industrial Space

Besides complex technical solutions and high completion accuracy, Coteccons also focuses on solutions to optimize costs and protect the environment. The natural lighting system on the roof, skylights, and louvers around the workshop walls not only minimize energy consumption but also create a spacious working environment, contributing to a sustainable and economical industrial space.

On-Time Handover – Affirming the Reputation and Overall Capability of Vietnam’s Top Contractor

The project was handed over on schedule after 14 months of construction, enabling the Viet Y Steel Plant to enter the operational phase as planned in May 2025. With a steel rolling capacity of 500,000 tons/year and a billet production line of 552,000 tons/year, the plant will significantly contribute to the development of Vietnam’s steel industry – providing high-quality, stable products for both domestic and international markets.

The Viet Y Steel Plant project not only demonstrates Coteccons’ outstanding ability to execute large-scale industrial projects but also affirms the company’s position as a leading contractor in Vietnam, with modern construction solutions and international standards. Coteccons is proud to continue being a trusted partner, creating sustainable values and contributing to the advancement of the construction industry in Vietnam.

This award recognizes Coteccons’ and Unicons’ outstanding contributions to sustainable and innovative construction practices. The Hubexo Asia Awards 2025 (formerly known as the BCI Asia Awards) – one of the industry’s most anticipated events – took place on June 13, 2025 in Ho Chi Minh City. This year’s event marks the 20th anniversary of recognizing excellence in architecture and construction throughout Asia. “Top 10 Contractors in Vietnam” category was first introduced in 2024. Coteccons and Unicons were both honored in its inaugural year and have successfully maintained their positions in the second year. The ranking criteria for the Top 10 Contractors are based on the total construction value of projects that commenced between January 1, 2023 – December 31, 2024, with weighting applied to projects registered for green building certification.   The continued presence of both Coteccons and Unicons in the Top 10 underscores Coteccons’ commitment to becoming an industry leader, while highlighting the group’s robust construction capabilities and long-term pursuit of sustainable development standards. Coteccons’ and Unicons’ project portfolio speaks for itself. Coteccons is behind major developments such as the Pandora Factory, Suntory PepsiCo Factory, Hòa Phát’s Dung Quất 2 megaproject, and

On June 3, 2025, Coteccons signed a memorandum of understanding with Long Thanh Construction Production Co., Ltd, an enterprise specializing in collecting, segregating and recycling construction waste, to co-launch a circular economy initiative in the construction sector. This collaboration aims to establish a “collect – recycle – reuse” model for construction waste at project sites. Concurrently, Coteccons Group and its subsidiaries formalized the “Green Commitment,” pledging to implement and uphold the goal of circular economy development and responsible business practices (SDG 12) – one of five key objectives guiding all project management and execution processes. This event signifies Coteccons’ dedicated efforts to connect stakeholders in pursuit of construction solutions that deliver long-term values for all. Amid global environmental challenges, where construction and demolition waste accounts for approximately 30% of total solid waste, transitioning to a circular economy model is not only an inevitable trend but also a responsibility for leading industry players to mitigate environmental impacts. As Vietnam’s premier general contractor, Coteccons, in partnership with Long Thanh Construction Production Co., Ltd. – a specialist in waste collection, sorting, and recycling – has pioneered the “collect – recycle – reuse” model at construction sites. This collaboration gives a “second life” to materials otherwise discarded, contributing to resource lifecycle renewal and sustainable development. Ms. Nguyễn Trình Thùy Trang, Deputy CEO of Coteccons, shared at the ceremony: “Sustainable development is not merely a matter of regulatory compliance but a deliberate choice for every business.
