In summary, ISO standards are indispensable for electronics manufacturers aiming to achieve operational excellence, meet global benchmarks, and maintain a competitive edge in a highly regulated industry.

Dai Dung Group consistently leads in the adoption of ISO standards.

The event where Dai Dung’s Vung Tau High-Tech Mechanical Factory (DDC Vung Tau) was awarded ISO 9001:2015 and ISO 3834-2:2021 certifications by the British Standards Institution (BSI) and Bureau Veritas, two prestigious international certification bodies, is a clear demonstration of Dai Dung’s capability and commitment to product and service quality.

These certifications not only affirm that DDC Vung Tau’s quality management system and steel welding processes meet international standards but also open up opportunities for international cooperation, strengthen customer trust, and enhance Dai Dung’s position in the global market. 

This is particularly significant as Dai Dung has just celebrated its 30th anniversary and is pursuing sustainable growth goals, reinforcing its aspiration to ‘Bring Vietnam to the World’ through refined products and solutions.
