The journey, step by step

Manila to the shop floor on one map

Follow a typical visit: a short flight across the sea, a 20-minute ride to our office, then 60 minutes west into the industrial belt where the factory stands.

  1. Step 1 · Fly in

    Manila → Ho Chi Minh City

    Direct flights from Manila land at Tan Son Nhat (SGN), the airport inside the city. Vietnam runs one hour behind Philippine time, so a morning departure still lands before most offices open.

  2. Step 2 · 20 min by car

    Airport → World Steel office

    South through Tan Binh to our office in Phu Tho Hoa. It is where estimating, NSCP design checks and project management sit, so it is the place to sit down with drawings and the 3D model.

  3. Step 3 · 60 min by car

    Office → World Steel factory

    West out of the city into Hai Son Industrial Park, Duc Hoa. Plan around peak hours and the ride is an easy hour each way.

World Steel Building, the company office in Ho Chi Minh City20 minfrom the airport

Office · Ho Chi Minh City

A steel-framed office we built for ourselves

The World Steel Building is our own design-and-build project from 2019: a slender multi-storey steel frame on a narrow city lot. Ask to see the frame photos – it is the quickest way to show a client how a steel building goes up on a tight urban site.

  • Kick-off and design meetings with the estimating and engineering team
  • Review of layouts, connection details and the Tekla model on a big screen
  • Contract and delivery planning: CIF port or DDP to your site

Questions visitors ask

How far is the World Steel factory from Tan Son Nhat airport?

About 80 minutes by car in normal traffic: 20 minutes from the airport to our office in Ho Chi Minh City, then 60 minutes from the office to the factory at Hai Son Industrial Park. Most visitors stop at the office first; if you only want to see production, you can drive straight to the plant.

Can I visit the factory and fly back to Manila on the same day?

Yes. With a morning arrival and an evening departure there is time for a meeting at the office and a full walk through the plant. If you want to witness tests or inspect your own members, plan an overnight stay so nothing is rushed.

Do Filipino visitors need a visa for Vietnam?

Philippine passport holders can stay in Vietnam without a visa for short visits under the ASEAN visa exemption, currently up to 21 days. Check the latest rules with your airline or the Embassy of Vietnam in Manila before you book.

What should I bring to the factory?

Closed shoes, long trousers and your project drawings or reference numbers. Helmets, safety glasses and high-visibility vests are provided at the gate. Photos are welcome in most areas; our guide will tell you where they are not.

How much notice do you need for a visit?

A few working days is enough for a general tour. For a witness inspection or a review of your own fabrication, send your dates one to two weeks ahead so the right members are on the shop floor when you arrive.
