The EU-Vietnam Free Trade Agreement (EVFTA) removes most customs duties on trade between the EU and Vietnam. Naturally, this makes Vietnam an even more attractive manufacturing partner for European companies. The agreement, 10 years in the making, began to come into effect at the beginning of August 2020.
General Silicones (GS) Vietnam factory is located in the North of the country, and already supplies local car factories of leading Asian brands with products from three key product lines:
Silicone raw materials, Automobile silicone parts and Functional silicone sheet.
The factory is centered on an automated production line, mainly for the processing of molded silicone products, and features four 6-axis spray painting robot systems. While the factory is already fully-operational and serving customers, GS continues to upgrade and expand the facility and equipment.
