POSCO YAMATO VINA, the solitary H-beam manufacturer in Vietnam under the stewardship of CEO Lee Young-woo, has blazed a trail in the country’s steel sector by obtaining the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) certification from UL (Underwriters Laboratories), a preeminent safety and environmental certification body, on June 15th.

The EPD certification exhaustively evaluates a product’s environmental footprint throughout its life cycle, encompassing raw materials extraction, production, transportation, and disposal. It rigorously assesses seven pivotal criteria: carbon emissions, water quality, ozone layer protection, acid rain, and air pollution.
