For the environment and the community, Viglacera commits to the goal of reducing net emissions and towards the Netzero target by 2050 as the Prime Minister has committed to the international community at COP26. Regarding electricity, generate a minimum amount of electricity from solar energy with a capacity of 0.5MW, ensuring 100% of the demand for the lighting system and a part of the industrial park’s auxiliary load; Regarding water reuse: Strive to reuse 5%-25% of wastewater for watering trees, washing roads to meet 40%-100% of demand; Reuse non-hazardous sludge with a quantity of about 406 kg/day, equivalent to 40% of the total sludge generated with a capacity of 3,000m3 of wastewater/day and night; The greening solution will help absorb at least more than 2,000 tons of carbon/year in the first years, equivalent to the emissions of nearly 500 gasoline-powered cars per year.

Ms. Tran Thi Hang – Vice Chairwoman of the Provincial People’s Council of Bac Ninh Province expressed her joy and confidence in the information that Viglacera is determined to convert Thuan Thanh Industrial Park to operate according to the Green and Smart model
Mr. Nguyen Van Phuc – Head of the Management Board of Industrial Parks of Bac Ninh Province shared at the ceremony: “Bac Ninh has become a center for developing industrial parks, with only about 4,000 to 5,000 hectares of land left for development. Therefore, the province’s policy is to need to select and screen businesses to invest, in order to simultaneously ensure two goals: Increasing investment attraction and maximizing land value. On the first day of spring of the new year like today, the announcement by Viglacera Corporation to invest in the development of Thuan Thanh Eco-Smart IP Industrial Park in the direction of green and smart shows that it coincides with the goals that Bac Ninh is aiming for. I think that the transition from the old model of industrial park with low cost to a modern model, of course, the tenant will also accept to pay higher land rental. However, what Viglacera is announcing and implementing shows that they are aiming for an optimal and more efficient operating cost, not only for themselves but also for investors in the industrial park. Only large enterprises with enough potential, stature and heart will be determined to follow that direction. I think Viglacera has the reputation to implement what they declare. For Bac Ninh province, Viglacera has always been the pioneer in developing industrial parks as well as increasing the quality of industrial park services. Therefore, the local authorities will also have solutions to support and at the same time be the most harmonious, so that investors can choose to rent land at this industrial park to see that they are encouraged and facilitated in implementing investment projects.”

Sustainable with the traditional source of planting green seeds…
Viglacera’s criteria is to develop industrial parks and residential urban areas wherever they go hand in hand with the development of nurseries, trees and working environment towards humane and sustainable values. Currently, 12 industrial parks of Viglacera have been and are being cultivated green over the years.
For more than 15 years now, for all employees of Viglacera Corporation, every time Tet comes and Spring comes is the time when everyone is waiting for the New Year Tree Planting Festival. This is an activity that every individual of Viglacera – no matter where they are, or what position they work in – maintains a day together to look towards. This is also the traditional source that is continuing in the modern flow… Each tree is planted and nurtured – although small, it is a piece to later create large green spaces, forming living lungs to purify and protect the environment.
This year, at “THUAN THANH Eco-Smart IP”, Viglacera is once again excited and proud to launch the New Year Tree Planting Festival of the Dragon Year 2024. This is a responsible button press of a series of activities towards the grand ceremony of the 50th Anniversary of the Corporation’s Founding.
