The journey to conquer the U.S. market has opened promising new chapters
May 2026 marks a historic milestone in Cat Van Loi’s "reaching out to the big ocean" journey. For the first time, a pure Vietnamese Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) brand appeared with pride at the IEEE PES Transmission & Distribution (T&D) Conference & Exposition—the world's largest power industry event, held at the McCormick Place Convention Center in Chicago, USA.
Asserting Position through International Standards
No longer a "follower," Cat Van Loi arrived in Chicago with the mindset of a professional manufacturer. At Booth #4176, we introduced an ecosystem of products meeting the most stringent international standards:
-
Steel Conduit Systems (EMT, IMC, RSC): UL Listed (Underwriters Laboratories) and compliant with American ANSI C80.3/C80.1 standards.
-
Mesh Cable Tray Systems and Accessories: Supporting modern MEP construction.
Successfully conquering UL certifications—the "golden passport" into the U.S. market—has allowed Cat Van Loi to confidently stand alongside leading multinational corporations.
A Vietnamese Mark on the International Stage
At Booth #4176, Cat Van Loi showcased a comprehensive collection of leading industrial electrical equipment solutions, including G.I. steel conduits, steel flexible conduits, lightning protection & grounding systems, cable trays, Unistrut channels, and various other product lines. All meet UL, ANSI, and NEMA standards—the most rigorous benchmarks in the U.S. market.
Throughout the four-day event, Cat Van Loi’s booth consistently attracted special attention from engineers, contractors, distributors, and energy experts from across the United States and around the world. "Made by Vietnam" products with international-standard quality left a strong and lasting impression on potential partners.
Proud Achievements
Participating in IEEE PES T&D 2026 was not just an opportunity to introduce the brand; it was the "sweet fruit" of over 20 years of persistent localization efforts:
-
Expanding Partner Networks: Dozens of high-quality business meetings and discussions were established with leading distributors, electrical contractors, and engineering consultants in North America.
-
Strengthening Brand Position: Cat Van Loi was one of the very few Vietnamese electrical equipment manufacturers present, leaving a distinct mark at a major IEEE PES event.
-
Validating Product Quality: Achieving UL, ANSI, and NEMA standards provided a solid foundation for approaching the U.S. market in a methodical and professional manner.
-
Sustainable Export Foundation: The relationships nurtured in Chicago promise to evolve into strategic export contracts in the near future.
-
Global Recognition: International experts highly appreciated the production capacity of Cat Van Loi’s factory in Vietnam, particularly its ability to provide a stable supply within the shifting global supply chain.
"Made by Vietnam" – From Aspiration to Reality
IEEE PES T&D 2026 is the clearest evidence of the internationalization strategy that Cat Van Loi is vigorously pursuing. From major projects in Vietnam—such as Long Thanh International Airport, Intel Factory, National Data Center, and Van Phong Thermal Power Plant—to projects in Japan, New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, the Philippines, Cambodia, and now the U.S. market, Cat Van Loi’s journey is one of a Vietnamese enterprise that dares to think big, act boldly, and reach global heights.
Our success in Chicago vividly demonstrates our philosophy: "Self-reliance – Autonomy – Resilience." We have proven to the world that Vietnamese industrial products possess the caliber to meet the world’s highest technical standards.
The warm reception from the U.S. market serves as a powerful motivation for Cat Van Loi to continue investing in technology, enhancing service quality, and fulfilling our commitment: To build a strong Vietnamese supporting industry on the global map.
We sincerely thank our partners and customers for always trusting and accompanying Cat Van Loi on our journey to conquer new heights!
