The plant, which will produce hatch covers for ships and other steel-based products at an annual capacity of 15,000 tonnes, is an investment of Vastalux-Anpha, a joint venture between Vastalux SDN-BHD of Malaysia and Anpha Trade and Service Co. Ltd of Ho Chi Minh City .

The JV said work will start soon on the 6-ha plant, which is expected to be put into production in July next year.
