The new plant will allow BASF to better meet the increasing demand for high quality construction chemicals products in Vietnam.

Christian Mombaur, senior vice president of Construction Chemicals Asia Pacific at BASF said that, “Northern Vietnam is continuing its path of rapid urbanisation and industrialisation. The new plant will enable us to stay closer to our customers and offer solutions to meet the growing demand in specialised construction chemicals, especially for building multi-story buildings and long-lasting infrastructure construction projects.”

Located at Bac Giang’s Van Trung industrial park, the plant is equipped with production units, a laboratory for product quality control as well as warehousing facilities. There, BASF produces both standard and custom-made performance admixtures from the MasterGlenium® product line under the Master Builders Solutions® brand. The company’s construction chemicals have been used in many popular construction projects such as Noi Bai T2 international airport and Nhat Tan bridge.

Petrus Ng, managing director of BASF in Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar said, “Vietnam is one of the fastest growing countries in Asia Pacific and is an important market for BASF. The opening of the new plant is yet another milestone for us as it expands our manufacturing footprint in Vietnam and supports the rapid growth of Vietnam’s construction market.”

The facility is strategically located at about 60 kilometres from Hanoi, with close proximity to Haiphong sea port and Noi Bai international airport. This is BASF’s second construction chemicals plant in Vietnam, complementing the existing plant in Vietnam-Singapore industrial park in the southern province of Binh Duong.
