Vietnam's First Modern Aluminum Project Enters Trial Production Phase with Guizhou Group

Published: Jul 22, 2026 14:03
The Phase I of the Vietnam Dak Nong aluminum project, constructed by Guizhou Construction Investment Group, has achieved a major breakthrough with the successful production of its first batch of liquid primary aluminum. The scorching-hot liquid aluminum flowed steadily from the cell, marking the official entry of Vietnam's first modern aluminum project into the trial production phase. The implementation of this project has filled the gap in Vietnam's domestic primary aluminum industry and become another landmark project under the Belt and Road Initiative in international capacity cooperation.
