Pomini Tenova, a leading global specialist in the production of roll grinders, completed the installation of three roll grinders for the Hoa Phat Group, one of the largest manufacturers of construction steels, coated steels and steel pipes in Vietnam. The Italian plant builder claims it has now installed and successfully commissioned 18 machines in the country.

These three machines – delivered for Hoa Phat’s new hot rolling mill located in Quảng Ngãi Province, Vietnam – are in addition to the two foundation-free roll grinders for the cold rolling mill in Lạc Đạo, Hưng Yên Province, also for Hoa Phat.

“The choice of our technology for Hoa Phat’s new productive site confirms the good quality of the relationship that we have been able to establish with the Hoa Phat Group over the years,” said Ermanno Croci, Pomini Tenova’s area sales manager. “We are particularly satisfied with this project as, in its latest phase, we encountered several challenges due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 emergency. Nevertheless, we completed it successfully,” he added.

According to Pomini Tenova, this delivery confirms the rising dynamism of the Vietnamese steel sector since the beginning of this century.

The Vietnamese market is increasingly looking for high technology in order to satisfy market demand for quality products, claims Tran Anh Chuong of Tenova Global Sales South East Asia. He said that, besidest he five machines in Hoa Phat, Pomini Tenova had commissioned one roll grinder in Pomina, two in Hoa Sen, four in POSCO, Vietnam, and six in China Steeel Sumikin in recent years.
