Thursday, 26 Feb, 2026

KURZ Vietnam has broken ground on Phase 2 of its manufacturing facility at Becamex VSIP Bình Định Industrial Park, adding 25 million square meters of annual production capacity with an additional investment of approximately VND 830 billion. The expansion reinforces the company’s long-term commitment to Vietnam and its confidence in the country’s industrial growth potential.

Significant Capacity and Investment Expansion

The Phase 2 project will increase KURZ Vietnam’s output by 25 million m² of products per year and is scheduled for completion by the end of 2028. This expansion builds on the company’s initial investment and marks a major step in scaling its production footprint in Vietnam.

Once operational, the project is expected to enhance workforce quality, stimulate the development of supporting industries, and contribute to the broader economic growth of Gia Lai province.

Strengthening Technology and Digital Integration

Speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony, Mr. Waegner Thomas Fritz, General Director of KURZ Vietnam Co., Ltd., affirmed that this marks a significant milestone in the development journey of KURZ Vietnam.

In addition to manufacturing expansion, the project will introduce key service capabilities, including programming, software production, IT consulting, and infrastructure management. These additions will increase the technological and knowledge content across the company’s value chain.

By integrating these capabilities, KURZ aims to accelerate digital transformation, streamline operational processes, improve productivity, and enhance product quality, while strengthening its ability to respond to global market fluctuations.

Leadership Reaffirms Long-Term Commitment

At the groundbreaking ceremony, Managing Director Waegner Thomas Fritz emphasized that the expansion reflects both increased production capacity and a long-term partnership with the local community. The strategic decision demonstrates confidence in Vietnam’s investment environment, regional potential, and the capabilities of the local workforce.

He noted that Phase 2 goes beyond constructing a new factory, focusing instead on enhancing overall operational performance, improving reliability, and building a foundation for future technological development. The company also reaffirmed its commitment to sustainable development, safety, and responsible growth.

“Hôm nay đánh dấu sự khởi đầu của một chặng đường mới. Với giai đoạn 2, KURZ Việt Nam tiếp tục củng cố vị thế trong mạng lưới toàn cầu của tập đoàn và khẳng định cam kết hiện diện bền vững tại đây”, ông Waegner Thomas Fritz, Tổng giám đốc Công ty TNHH KURZ Việt Nam cho hay.

Building on an Established Industrial Presence

KURZ previously inaugurated its Phase 1 factory on September 8, 2023, at the same industrial park. This initial project, with a total investment of USD 40 million, has a production capacity of 15 million m² per year, focusing on Luxor and Alufin films.

As a Germany-based global leader, KURZ specializes in high-quality surface decoration and protection solutions, including holographic effects, digital printing, heat transfer printing, direct decoration, and textile heat transfer technologies.

The Phase 2 expansion further strengthens KURZ Vietnam’s role within the group’s global network while supporting long-term industrial and technological development in the region.
