The Mechanical Center has a total investment of more than $100 million on an area of 20 hectares. The center has 4 factories, i.e. Material and Mechanical Processing Plant, Semi-Trailer and Heavy Structure Component Plant, Molds Plant, and Specialized Equipment Plant.

Meanwhile, the R&D center has a total investment of more than $20 million on 20,000 square meters, housing 1,000 experts and experienced R&D engineers, expecting to be put into operation in August 2023. The place takes charge of the R&D activities, ensuring that the company products follow the market trends and meet customization demands. It is also in charge of providing design services and advising solutions of industrial production, smart technology, or product testing.

Once complete, the two centers will boost THACO INDUSTRIES technology content, improving its production capacity and product quality, making the most of the efficiency of the full-package supply chain, thereby honing its competitive advantages and participating in the global value chain.
