Projects that adhere to green standards, such as KCN DEEP C - Hai Phong (Phase 02) by KCN Vietnam Group, aim to ensure a balance between environmental and economic efficiency

This commitment not only demonstrates KCN Vietnam Group's strong efforts in adopting green initiatives, Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) principles, and pursuing sustainable development goals, but also reflects its determination to accompany the Government in implementing the National Green Growth Strategy for the period 2021-2030. The development of green buildings by KCN Vietnam Group will also create many favorable conditions for client enterprises, especially those with foreign direct investment (FDI), by enhancing competitiveness and facilitating global supply chain integration.

As Vietnam actively aims for net-zero emissions by 2050, the industrial property sector plays a crucial role in promoting a green economy. Developing green industrial parks, associated with circular economy models, cleaner production, and the efficient and economical use of resources, is increasingly becoming a mainstream trend.

As an industrial property developer dedicated to green development, the group has established sustainable construction standards for its upcoming projects, working toward achieving green building and sustainable development certifications. By applying these green standards, KCN Vietnam Group aims to optimize energy and resource efficiency, reduce emissions, and deliver positive impacts to local workers, employees, customers, partners, investors, and the surrounding community.

KCN Vietnam Group's debut initiative in green building standards is the construction of Phase 2 at their Deep C - Hai Phong project, with the goal of attaining LEED Silver certification. This project ensures optimal energy and resource use, potentially saving up to 25% in energy and reducing water consumption by 10%, while significantly lowering carbon emissions compared to traditional projects. This initiative would potentially offer financial advantages, while also enhancing employee satisfaction and productivity, ultimately benefiting the community. LEED is among the top prestigious green building certifications in the world, developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). For the KCN Deep C - Hai Phong (Phase 2) project, KCN Vietnam Group has collaborated with one of the leading experts in green building consultants throughout the design, construction and operational phases to meet the stringent standards set by the USGBC. By implementing these sustainable standards in KCN DEEP C - Hai Phong, KCN aims to establish the benchmarks for environmental and sustainable development in the ready-built warehouse and factory sector, while enhancing the competitive advantage of Vietnam’s industrial property.

Mr. Hardy Diec, Chief Operating Officer of KCN Vietnam Group, shared: “At KCN Vietnam Group, we believe in and aspire to embed environmental values, social principles, and governance (ESG) into the core of our company's DNA. Standardizing projects to meet green certification standards certainly presents many challenges; however, we have full confidence in our strategic partners with experience in developing green buildings, as well as in the long-term environmental, economic, and welfare benefits it brings to our employees, customers, community, and the overall development of the nation.”

By implementing its green building strategy, KCN Vietnam Group affirms its position in industrial real estate and contributes to Vietnam's sustainable development goals. Currently, the group has set the partnership with numerous experienced and specialized consulting firms to ensure that its upcoming projects are constructed according to stringent environmental and sustainability standards.
