In this year's selection, six product lines across the VNSTEEL system continued to receive Vietnam Value recognition, including:

  • Southern Steel /V/ brand: Southern Steel /V/ deformed reinforcing bars and VNSTEEL wire rods.
  • Southern Steel Sheet Joint Stock Company (SSSC) brand: Viet-Japan galvanized steel sheets, Viet-Japan cold-rolled steel sheets with an aluminum-zinc coating, and Viet-Japan color-coated steel sheets.
  • Viet Uc Steel brand: Viet Uc deformed reinforcing bars.

Vietnam Value is a distinctive, long-term government trade promotion program aimed at honoring brands that represent Vietnam's reputation, intellectual capabilities, and manufacturing capacity on the international stage. To earn this prestigious recognition, products must undergo a rigorous assessment process and comprehensively meet three core criteria: Quality - Innovation - Pioneering Capacity.

Under this year's recognition theme, “The Flow of Vietnamese Brands,” the continued recognition of products across the VNSTEEL system under Vietnam Value provides compelling evidence of the resilience, continuity, and solid internal strength of VNSTEEL's member companies. This achievement is not only a source of pride for Southern Steel /V/, Southern Steel Sheet Joint Stock Company, and Viet Uc Steel, but also affirms the strength of value-chain integration across the Corporation. As one of the leading enterprises in Vietnam's metallurgical industry, VNSTEEL remains committed to contributing to the development of the country's key infrastructure projects with products that meet international standards.

Speaking at the ceremony, Mr. Nghiem Xuan Da, General Director of VNSTEEL, emphasized: “Vietnam Value recognition is both an honor and a responsibility that businesses bear toward their customers, partners, and the community. As the global steel industry faces increasingly stringent requirements for emissions reduction and the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), VNSTEEL identifies green development and the digitalization of its operational value chain as key priorities for strengthening competitiveness. Every bundle of steel bars and every coil of steel sheet bearing the Vietnam Value emblem represents our commitment to quality, durability, and environmental responsibility.”
