The company aims to expand its reach in global carpet and yarn markets. On Tuesday, a groundbreaking ceremony took place at the Tam Thang Industrial Park in Da Nang, Vietnam, marking the start of this new facility.

Currently, the site is home to tire cord and airbag production facilities. The new plant is expected to be operational by 2029, with the production of bulk continuous filament (BCF) yarn and carpets for automobiles and commercial buildings.
