Binh Dien is promoting a green transition from factory to field, including energy conversion, the application of microbiological technology in NPK fertiliser development, and the “Green Journey: Healthy Soil – Healthy Plants” programme. The company is collaborating with scientists and technical agencies to build models, provide guidance, and monitor effectiveness across seasons, aiming for appropriate fertiliser use, soil health improvement, and enhanced cultivation efficiency. RFID and QR code applications for traceability are also being implemented to improve product information transparency. These strategies aim to maintain farmers’ trust, link brand development with quality, and support the goal of a green, sustainable agriculture.

Recognition and Continued Commitment to Excellence
The Vietnam National Brand is a biennial national trade promotion programme. The accolade recognises not only corporate reputation and product quality but also the need for ongoing innovation, standard maintenance, and enhanced competitiveness.
Recognition of seven member units in 2026 is a source of pride for Vinachem, underlining the role of its enterprises in supplying products for industrial and agricultural production. For these honours to be sustained, each unit must continue to turn development strategies into tangible results at every stage of production, quality management, and customer service.
This recognition at the 10th Vietnam National Brand Awards is a driving force for Supe Lam Thao, CASUMINA, Southern Fertiliser, DRC, Lixco, PINACO, and Binh Dien Fertiliser to further develop, encourage outstanding and innovative work, improve product quality and production efficiency, and contribute to building a reputable, competitive, and sustainable Vietnamese brand together with Vinachem.
