Hai Duong industrial parks attract green projects

Eco-friendliness

Hai Duong has set the target of developing industrial parks (IP) that not only serve economic growth but also meet environmental protection criteria for sustainable development. Therefore, synchronous investment is being poured into many IPs in the province, even infrastructure, with green elements.

The investor of VSIP Hai Duong IP in Cam Giang district has so far planted approximately 27,000 trees along the roads to the IP and around the management building, making the IP a typical example in the province in terms of green space as from establishment.

VSIP Hai Duong IP has attracted 18 secondary investors focusing on such fields as manufacturing, clean industry, and automation, which are considered hardly causing environmental pollution.

Early this month, AnEco biodegradable plastic bags of An Phat Bioplastics JSC., a member of An Phat Holdings JSC., was recognized as a national brand.

An Phat Holdings JSC. is expected to be a pioneer in environmental protection in the province and oriented to develop clean technology. Hence, An Phat 1 IP, built by the company in Nam Sach district, is also being covered with shady trees.

The firm intends to carry out two projects, covering 7.5 ha and 11.8 ha, in the IP with modern, environmentally friendly technology lines.

The 7.5 ha project aims to build a factory producing high-end packaging for export to the US with an investment of about 870 billion VND.

The plant is expected to monthly produce 2,000 tons of products, annually bring about a revenue of 1,400 billion VND and pay 100 billion VND to the State budget, and provide jobs for 334 workers, starting from 2026.

The other project will be implemented on an area of 11.8 ha to manufacture strategic products of high-tech plastics for export to the US with modern green technology.

With an investment of more than 2,300 billion VND, the project is expected to be completed and put into operation in 2027.

In the future, An Phat 1 IP will not only be a production site but also an integrated model of industry and ecology, bringing comprehensive benefits to the economy, society, and environment.

Sustainable direction

Last September, Kim Thanh IP won the Best Sustainable Industrial Development Vietnam 2024 award at the Dot Property Vietnam Awards 2024.

Though infrastructure construction has just begun, the IP is aimed towards green development, using green technology and clean energy to reduce environmental emissions, according to Duong Thi Thu Ha, Deputy Director-general of COMA 18 JSC., the investor of the IP.

"We will continue to develop strongly as a sustainable attraction for foreign and domestic direct investment, contributing to the development of Vietnam in general and Hai Duong in particular", said Ha.

Not only aiming for sustainable industrial development, Hai Duong is always committed to creating favorable conditions for investors when researching and implementing projects in the province.

That is a particularly important resource to lure investment, promote socio-economic development, and soon turn Hai Duong into an industrial and modern province.
