Viet Thai Electrostatic Painting Company: Ready for Integration

Established and coming into operation on November 1998, with sharpness, dynamism, creativity and assertiveness of leaders and collective unity of employees, Viet Thai Electrostatic Painting Company has established a solid position and overcome difficulties to make success. In electrostatic coating, the company has overwhelming quality and price advantages over competitors. Viet Thai is capable of electrostatically coating 12 - 13,000 square metres a year. Apart from traditional customers, many new clients like SYM and Honda Vietnam have come to the company to sign contracts. Favourable business operations thus ensure good living standards for workers. With the slogan "Quality or unemployment," the company always pays high attention to enhancing the prestige to domestic and foreign customers. In response to the Prime Minister’s decree on localisation of automobile industry, the company invested in chassis production lines for trucks of 0.5 - 12 tonnes. Before 2012, the annual output is 4,500 chasses.

 

Despite economic difficulties, Viet Thai still made intensive investments to diversify products to boost up competitiveness and provide best services for customers. The company received new orders for production of telecom antennas, base transceiver stations, steel frameworks, high- and low-voltage electric posts, etc. The firm expects to attend an automobile components exhibition in Thailand in June 2013 to introduce its products for motorized vehicles. In 2012, the company expects to earn revenues of VND70 billion and pay VND1.1 billion of taxes to the State Budget. On product quality, Viet Thai effectively applies ISO 9001: 2008 quality management system. Public announcement of product quality standards and regular quality assessment ensure steady quality of products for customers.

 

Apart from modern machinery and equipment investment, human resource development is always the focused target of the company. The management board pays attention to this factor from the recruitment phase and throughout the working process. Viet Thai always ensures stable, well-paid employment for workers. It creates favourable conditions for workers to learn and improve their skills and qualifications. The management takes care of working environment and employment policy by setting up a trade union (in 2003), paying health insurances and social insurances for all employees, organising regular health examinations, and arranging annual excursions.

 

Since its inception, the company defined that corporate culture is important to maintain the existence of businesses. Mr Tran Ngoc Chuan, Chairman of the Board of Directors, said: "Culture in business, culture in daily life, and corporate culture always supplement each other and develop together. Together with production activities, environmental protection, and worker and community health are constantly a top concern of the management board. Therefore, the firm strictly applies and ensures certified environmental standards, ISO 14001: 2004. In addition, Viet Thai is always highly responsible towards society and the community. It actively supports flood-hit victims, disabilities, Agent Orange victims and helpless orphans, and builds houses for unfortunate people and heroic Vietnamese mother monuments.

 

With constant efforts of the entire staff, Viet Thai honourably receives many lofty titles and awards like Vietnam Quality Award, Typical Vietnamese Business Award, Typical ASEAN Business Award, Renowned ASEAN Trademark, and Certificates of Merits from the Prime Minister. The company has asserted its position, overcome challenges, enhanced competitiveness, and gets ready for integration.
