PVD-coated faucets: Viglacera's new premium product in the green building materials ecosystem

In today's context, the selection of building materials is not simply a matter of functionality or aesthetics, but is deeply related to sustainability and consumer health safety. Responding to the growing demand for environmentally friendly products, Viglacera proudly introduces PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) surface protection technology for faucets and showerheads – a solution expected to contribute to improving the quality of life for consumers while promoting the sustainable development of the construction industry.

In developed countries like Europe, faucets coated with physical vapor deposition (PVD) technology have become the standard due to their quality, durability, and safety. However, when imported into Vietnam, the cost is often high. Domestic production allows Viglacera to be a pioneer in bringing high-tech solutions at more affordable prices to Vietnamese consumers, helping to popularize advanced technology in the domestic market.

The outstanding advantages of PVD coating technology on shower faucet surfaces.

1. Superior durability:
The product is three times more durable than traditional plating and 5-10 times more durable than electrostatic powder coatings on the market. The PVD coating enhances scratch resistance, corrosion resistance, and oxidation resistance from the environment, extending product lifespan and reducing the frequency of replacement and maintenance.

2. Elegant aesthetics and a wide variety of colors:
PVD-coated shower heads have a smooth, glossy surface with a variety of colors, creating a modern and luxurious look for high-end bathrooms. The stain-resistant properties of this coating also make cleaning and maintenance easier.

3. Safe for user health:
PVD coatings do not contain toxic chemicals such as lead, mercury, or other harmful substances, strictly complying with the European RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) standard. This is especially important for products that come into direct contact with drinking water, protecting the health of consumers, especially children and the elderly.

4. Environmental protection technologies:
PVD technology is a green solution that does not generate toxic waste during production, thus minimizing environmental impact. This is a sustainable production solution that Viglacera is pursuing.

Introducing PVD coating technology on shower heads at key events.

At key events organized by the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Ministry of Construction in 2024, Viglacera had the opportunity to directly introduce its green building materials ecosystem products to leading experts and ministerial leaders. PVD surface protection technology on faucets was one of the advanced solutions that Viglacera introduced for the first time at these events.

New products showcased at the Ministry of Science and Technology , Ministry of Construction - Vietnam Green Building Week 2024 event.

The event attracted the attention of many experts from both within and outside the country, especially researchers and businesses in the field of construction materials.

Leaders from the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Construction, and experts highly appreciated the technological advancements that Viglacera is pursuing, especially the development of environmentally friendly products that meet international standards for safety and quality.

Export orientation and sustainable development

Viglacera's investment strategy in mid-range and high-end product lines, applying PVD technology to faucets and showerheads, not only aims to meet the growing consumer demand but also pursues a larger goal – expanding into the European and American markets. With superior quality and high standards for health and environmental protection, these products are expected to further solidify Viglacera's position in the global building materials industry.

Along with Viglacera's mid-to-high-end products in the green building materials ecosystem, PVD-coated faucets continue the mission of bringing "made in Vietnam - made by Viglacera" products to the world.

The development and application of PVD surface protection technology demonstrates Viglacera's strong commitment to contributing to the national strategy of achieving the Net Zero goal by 2050. This active participation not only helps minimize environmental impact but also contributes to improving the quality of life through the development of sustainable products that are safe for public health.

Viglacera will launch its first line of PVD-coated faucets and showerheads in December 2024, with technology transfer from Protec Surface Technologies Srl (Italy). With a strategy of "popularizing high-end products" in the domestic market, Viglacera is committed to providing high-quality products at reasonable prices, suitable for the market's consumption capacity. Viglacera hopes to receive feedback from early adopters and is committed to continuous improvement to bring the most advanced technology products to enhance the quality of life and elevate the lifestyle of Vietnamese consumers.
