Ultra Clear Glass is a new material with great development potential, bringing long-term benefits in the future for both the construction and renewable energy industries. Investing in the production of Ultra Clear Glass is an important step forward in the development strategy of Viglacera Corporation to enhance competitiveness, create high-value-added products, and meet the growing needs of domestic and foreign markets.
Currently, most Ultra Clear Glass has to be imported from China and India at high prices, so Viglacera's investment in the production of Ultra Clear Glass in Vietnam is necessary to meet the domestic market demand, replace imports and provide quality products at reasonable prices. This also helps to promote product exports to international markets, especially Southeast Asian countries, using tariff preferences through free trade agreements in the region.
The production of high-end glass materials is also one of the key areas of the Corporation, so in the coming time, Viglacera will continue to invest and expand, bringing advanced and quality glass solutions to customers in and out of the country.
Mr. Do Viet Phuong, General Director of Phu My Ultra Clear Float Glass Company (PFG), shared that the plant has an area of nearly 150,000 m2, equipped with modern, advanced technology, fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly, ensuring a designed capacity of 1,500 tons of liquid glass/day, divided into 2 phases: Phase 1 with a capacity of 600 tons/day and Phase 2 with a capacity of 900 tons/day.
