According to experts, the greatest challenge currently facing investors is the cost of conducting product life-cycle assessments. However, by prioritising the use of domestically produced materials with published Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), businesses can reduce costs by 50–70% compared with imported materials, while also rendering a project's carbon footprint more transparent.

In this new stage of development, Viglacera, one of Viet Nam's leading construction businesses, has committed to continuing its pioneering role by working alongside the business community to build a genuine green building ecosystem, contributing practically to the nation's net-zero-by-2050 target.

Since 2016, Viglacera has been at the forefront of investing in advanced technology transferred from the Federal Republic of Germany to manufacture energy-saving glass. So far, this product line has emerged as a highly sought-after choice among architects and premium contractors.

Tran Ngoc Anh, Deputy Chief Executive Officer of Viglacera Corporation, reaffirmed the company's strategy of expanding its ecosystem and strengthening cooperation to generate long-term value.

Accordingly, Viglacera not only supplies building materials but also provides a "materials infrastructure" that helps investors achieve their ESG goals and optimise their assets by increasing value and improving investment management. In particular, Viglacera's Solar Control and Low-E glass products have obtained EPD certification in accordance with US standards, meeting the stringent requirements of international certifications such as LEED, EDGE, Green Mark, and LOTUS.

In addition to offering environmentally friendly products, Viglacera's energy-saving glass factory in Binh Duong Province (former) has achieved LEED Silver certification and has optimised its production process with a glass recycling rate of up to 20%.

Business unit representatives stated that incorporating Viglacera glass from the preliminary design stage helps simplify mechanical and electrical systems, avoid unnecessary investment costs, and elevate asset value, as green-certified buildings have recorded a 12% increase in asset value and significantly higher occupancy rates.

ESG transparency through EPD data is considered the "key" that enables investors to quantify carbon emissions, improve the quality of ESG reporting, and gain easier access to foreign direct investment (FDI) and green credit.

As society places increasingly demanding requirements on construction progress, environmental protection, fire safety, and structural resilience against natural disasters, Viglacera's energy-saving glass, ultra-clear glass, high-tech ceramic tiles, water-saving sanitary ware, and autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC/ALC) products have demonstrated clear advantages in the market.

From the early days when non-fired building materials were still unfamiliar to the Vietnamese market, Viglacera demonstrated its pioneering vision by boldly investing in autoclaved aerated concrete. Today, Viglacera's AAC blocks and ALC panels have emerged as rising stars in the construction industry.

To meet demand in both domestic and international markets, the company's investment project to expand the capacity of its aerated concrete plant is being implemented on schedule. A new cutting system supplied by HESS of the Federal Republic of Germany arrived at the factory at the end of April 2026 and is a key component in increasing production capacity from 200,000 m³/year to 240,000 m³/year.

Furthermore, export opportunities continue to expand as the company regularly welcomes international partners. In May 2026, working sessions and factory visits with partners from Taiwan (China) were successfully held, creating a solid foundation for bringing Viglacera's autoclaved aerated concrete products to regional markets.

In addition, to build a sustainable competitive advantage and meet the most demanding ESG standards of international investors, Viglacera is accelerating the development of its "green and smart" industrial park model. Beyond providing land funds, its operating system has been established as a "digital brain", directly integrating advanced technologies such as real-time automatic wastewater monitoring systems, smart lighting systems that optimise energy consumption, and AI-powered camera networks for security monitoring and internal traffic management.

Disruptions or a lack of consistency in the "green supply chain" have long been a major challenge for the construction and real estate sectors: a green building cannot be constructed from high-emission materials, and vice versa. Recognising this challenge, Viglacera has consistently maintained its ESG-oriented strategy over many years.

Viglacera has steadily integrated the principles of the circular economy and carbon emission reduction throughout the product life cycle through sustained investment and significant technological advances, affirming Viglacera's role in the transition towards a green economy and a low-emission construction industry.
