Construction materials industry pioneers in applying green technology

Chairman of Vietnam Association of Building Materials Tong Van Nga spoke at the workshop.

Mr. Tong Van Nga - Chairman of Vietnam Association of Building Materials said that since the renovation period, Vietnam's building materials industry has developed strongly, not only meeting domestic demand but also reaching out to the international market with competitive quality and prices.

In particular, in the trend of sustainable development, the industry is pioneering in applying green, environmentally friendly technology, contributing to building a circular economy.

In addition to product development, the construction materials industry is promoting the trend of sustainable development, applying environmentally friendly materials. The green trend in the construction industry is no longer an option but has become an inevitable requirement.

“Recyclable, less polluting, and environmentally friendly materials will be increasingly used. This will not only help reduce negative impacts on the environment but also improve economic efficiency,” said Mr. Tong Van Nga.

Deputy Director of the Department of Science, Technology, Environment and Construction Materials (Ministry of Construction) Le Van Ke said that the construction materials industry has a long history and plays a very important role in the process of building and developing the country.

The total annual revenue of the construction materials industry, including construction steel, is estimated at about 50 billion USD, accounting for nearly 12% of the national GDP. The trend of developing a circular economy and a green economy will achieve both goals, responding to resource depletion and environmental pollution.

At the low level, circular economy focuses on the production processes of businesses by encouraging and requiring the adoption of cleaner production methods and ecological design.

At a high level, all stages of the manufacturing process are designed to be zero waste. Waste is minimized, reused and recycled.
