As a leading and reputable general contractor in Vietnamese market, SOL E&C provides comprehensive construction solutions for Clients, covering all stages from design to project commissioning. Currently, SOL E&C is making its mark in both the Construction and M&E sectors through numerous large-scale projects across various types of developments throughout Vietnam. The Coca-Cola Long An Factory is a standout project, featuring a significant scale and complex M&E system, with SOL E&C and Newtecons serving as the General Contractors.

The Coca-Cola Long An Factory successfully connected to the power grid in early September 2024

The Coca-Cola Long An factory, with a total investment of 136 million USD, was designed and managed by Royal HaskoningDHV. Additionally, Newtecons and SOL E&C worked alongside technology contractors such as Tetra Pak, Krones, and KHS during the integration of M&E systems with the factory's machinery and production lines. Spanning a total area of 19 hectares, the Long An factory is built to LEED Gold standards, adhering to sustainable development criteria (ESG). Once operational, the factory is expected to reach a maximum capacity of 1 billion liters of product per year.

In the M&E section, Newtecons and SOL E&C are implementing several complex systems, including electrical systems, low-voltage electrical systems, air condition system, fire-fighting system, and water supply & drainage, as well as auxiliary systems and process piping (LN2, CO2, N2 Liquid, N2 Gas, Steam, Chiller 6/12 degrees, RO, etc.). Additionally, SOL E&C is responsible for constructing various storage systems, such as tanks for DO, raw water, NaOH, and steam, including two large fire-fighting tanks with a diameter of 7 meters and a height of 17 meters.

At the project, SOL E&C has applied the most advanced technical solutions, such as a complex HVAC system that helps control temperature, humidity, and clean air. Furthermore, the water piping and treatment systems for both clean and wastewater have been optimized for flow and processing, ensuring all environmental sanitation requirements and water resource conservation are met. Notably, the general contractor Newtecons and SOL E&C have collaborated with the client Coca-Cola to relocate three sets of generator and synchronization panel from the factory in Ho Chi Minh City to the Long An plant. The relocation of these large mechanical and electrical components from an operational facility required the expertise of the main contractor, as well as seamless coordination among all parties to avoid any disruption to the production lines at the Coca-Cola factory in Ho Chi Minh City.

Beside Coca-Cola Long An Factory, SOL E&C has also constructed numerous manufacturing factory projects, including the Milwaukee Factory for TTI Group, Tetra Pak Binh Duong, UNIBEN Binh Duong, and VIFON Hai Duong,etc. Additionally, SOL E&C’s leading position in the industrial construction sector is further demonstrated through various projects in collaboration with Clients such as Frasers Property, John-Richard, Gelex Group, Cainiao Network (a member of the Alibaba Group), and SPX Express (the logistics company for Shopee),etc.
