Vietnam's steel industry has made remarkable developments in both production scale and technological lines. Vietnam steel quality has gradually reached important markets such as Europe and America. Today MRS Steel will make an overview of Vietnam quality steel as well as learn about breakthroughs in the country's steel production technology.Vietnam steel quality based on breakthroughs in steel refining technologyPreviously in Vietnam, most steel was produced through electric arc furnace (EAF) technology, but the EAF method was assessed to cause high electricity consumption. In addition, input materials such as iron ore or scrap steel contain too many impurities, which has generated more dust and large slag in the production process, reducing the furnace's life span and affecting the quality of the output steel.In the period from 2010 to 2020, many domestic steel enterprises have installed blast furnaces with large capacity, specifically Hoa Phat has operated 2 blast furnaces with the capacity is 1,350 m3, Formosa Ha Tinh has installed blast furnace No. 1 with a capacity of 4,350m3 and blast furnace No.2 with a capacity of 4,350m3. The improvement of furnace capacity has helped manufacturers minimize dust emissions, eliminate harmful impurities and reuse energy through coal gas recovery to produce thermal energy for the furnace.In addition, the large manufacturers such as Hoa Phat, Formosa or VN Steel,... have installed the technology of basic oxygen furnace (BOF) or the LD converter into manufacturing activities. In particular, the technology of BOF has a significant effect in burning all impurities in liquid iron and the steel scrap. Specifically, Hoa Phat's output steel has the percentages of impurities (Cu, Ni, Cr). ) is very low when less than 0.03% and this figure is lower than the standards of many countries in the world. Based on an extremely low impurity rate, the output steel product will achieve purity and consensus in quality, the steel will have good bending properties, combined with toughness and high yield strength will improve the sustainability of construction.Continuous investment in steel production linesDuring the past 10 years, the domestic steel manufacturers have continuously invested in steel refining technology as well as improved modern techniques in production lines in order to bring more Vietnam steel quality to the abroad markets. Currently, most steel producers in Vietnam such as Hoa Phat, Hoa Sen, Ton Dong A, Nghi Son, ... all use the most advanced steel production lines in the world such as Danieli - Tenova from Italy,  SMS from Germany,...Most of the galvanizing or color coating lines in Vietnam are equipped with gas recovery systems to help manufacturers save energy. Another highlight of these technologies from Europe is low operating costs as well as high flexibility when it can be applied to many types of steel products as well as can accept many different coating materials.For example, the CM4 color coating line of Ton Dong A is equipped with an RTO gas recovery system to help protect the environment or Hoa Sen Group's galvanizing line is equipped with an electric annealing furnace to help reduce waste of gas emissions from the factory. In addition, the color coating lines are also equipped with NOF annealing furnace technology to help the galvanized layers adhere to the steel better, assisting manufacturers to control the exact thickness of the layers, optimally treating temperature of flatness and gloss of the finished product.International standards for output productsCurrently, Vietnam steel quality products have reached many countries around the world including large markets such as Europe, America, Australia, etc. The equipping of advanced production lines has helped domestic steel manufacturers qualify to produce quality steel grades in terms of size, weight, ductility, and bearing capacity. Before being exported, steel products are fully certified standards including JIS of Japan, ASTM of America, BN of UK, AS of Australia.Besides, the quality management system standards at factories are also an important factor to evaluate the quality of output products. Most of the domestic steel factories come from corporations such as Hoa Phat, Hoa Sen, Ton Nam Kim, Ton Dong A, Vn Steel,... all obtained the certification of the latest standard ISO 9001:2015, which partly shows the production capacity and resources of the enterprise.Finding the reputable supplier of Vietnam steel qualityVietnam's steel industry in recent years has made amazing changes as it has gradually become self-production with a wide range of steel products. Increasing steel quality and diversified product supply have attracted many international importers to choose Vietnamese steel for construction projects.Since its establishment, MRS Steel has always positioned itself as an enterprise providing steel solutions for importers in order to save cost and time to partners. Based on extensive experience in the steel industry, MRS Steel has made relationships with many major domestic steel manufacturers such as Hoa Phat, Hoa Sen, Ton Dong A, Ton Nam Kim, etc. All steel products that we provide have a clear origin from manufacturers, fully meeting the strict standards from durability, coating thickness to the aesthetics.MRS Steel always shows transparency in contract exchanges, certification documents and clarity in prices, thereby helping importers understand clearly about the trading process as well as owning a good quality steel source for your project.

The Vietnamese steel pipe production and distribution industry has many outstanding brands, contributing to affirming the position of the domestic steel industry on the world steel rankings. Among them, SeAH Steel Vina Corporation is the first Vietnamese company to export steel pipes to the United States and Japan.Overview of SeAH Steel Vina CorporationSeAH Steel Vina Corporation was established in 1998 with 100% investment from SeAH Steel Corporation (Korea), specializing in steel pipe production. After nearly 30 years of establishment and development, the company has always been steadfast with the goal of bringing the best experiences to customers through high quality products and advanced technology. Although entering the steel market quite late and facing competition from big brands such as Hoa Phat, Hoa Sen, Pomina,... but thanks to its unremitting efforts, SeAH Vietnam has become a One of the leading steel pipe manufacturers in Vietnam. SeAH Vina is also the first enterprise in Vietnam to export steel pipes to the Japanese and United States markets, paving the way for the domestic steel pipe industry to join the globalization process. In the coming time, SeAH will continue to research and develop the quality of its products to become a more comprehensive and stronger steel pipe manufacturer.Scale and production technology of SeAH Steel VinaSeAH Steel Vina Corporation has a total production capacity of 330,000 tons/year, providing the market with about 200,000 tons of steel/year with a variety of designs and types such as black steel pipes, galvanized steel pipes, black welded steel pipes, hot-dip galvanized steel, hollow section steel, civil steel pipes, pressure steel pipes, electrical wire sleeves, structural pipes, API pipes and national oil and gas pipes,... In 2019, SeAH expanded a new factory with a total area of 120,000 m2, initial investment capital of 15 million USD and capacity of 325,000 tons.SeAH has 50 years of experience in the steel pipe manufacturing industry with modern techniques and an advanced quality management system, so products have outstanding quality on the market. SeAH is one of the very few Vietnamese mills that can produce steel pipes according to American Petroleum Institute standards API 5L, API 5CT and fire protection pipes according to UL and FM standards of the US.
