XENIA 1 INDUSTRIAL WAREHOUSE
EPANEL ALC (Autoclaved Lightweight Concrete) panels were specified as the complete enclosure wall solution for XENIA 1 Industrial Development — an 85,000 m² warehouse complex in Xuyen An Industrial Park, Long An — delivering faster installation, superior fire resistance and improved thermal performance compared to conventional brick masonry systems. Developed by XENIA 1 Co., Ltd. and built by Hoa Binh Construction Group, this large-scale logistics facility demanded a wall system that could meet international industrial safety standards while accelerating the construction programme. The panels was the clear choice — combining structural reliability, thermal efficiency and non-combustible fire protection in a single, proven solution.

About the Project
The XENIA 1 Industrial Development is a large-scale warehouse complex located within Xuyen An Industrial Park, Long An Province — one of the key industrial corridors in Southern Vietnam. Invested by XENIA 1 Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of the BWID industrial property group, the project spans over 85,000 m² across two main floors and two mezzanine levels, designed to serve high-volume logistics and warehousing operations. Hoa Binh Construction Group serves as main contractor for the build.
Why EPANEL ALC Was Chosen for XENIA 1
For a logistics and warehousing facility of this scale, the enclosure wall system must simultaneously address fire safety, thermal performance, construction speed and long-term durability. The project team evaluated multiple options before selecting EPANEL ALC — large-format, steel-reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete panels — as the most effective and proven solution.
EPANEL ALC — Key Technical Benefits
Large format panels for fast installation
The panels are available in lengths from 2,200 mm to 4,800 mm — dramatically reducing the number of joints and individual units required to enclose the 85,000 m² building footprint. This large-format EPANEL ALC system, combined with precisely manufactured dimensions, enabled significantly faster wall installation cycles compared to block masonry, directly supporting the project’s construction programme targets.
Fire resistance for industrial safety compliance
As a non-combustible building material, EPANEL ALC provides proven fire resistance performance meeting the requirements of QCVN 06:2022/BXD for industrial warehouse buildings. This is a critical safety requirement for logistics facilities handling diverse cargo, and a key criterion in the specification decision for XENIA 1.
Thermal insulation for working environment quality
EPANEL ALC’s low thermal conductivity reduces heat penetration through external enclosure walls, helping maintain more stable and comfortable working temperatures inside the warehouse throughout Long An’s warm tropical climate. For a multi-storey logistics facility with continuous operations, EPANEL ALC’s thermal performance reduces the energy burden on mechanical cooling and ventilation systems.
Structural integrity for multi-storey warehouse applications
The steel reinforcement embedded within EPANEL ALC provides additional structural integrity to wall assemblies — suitable for the demanding load and impact requirements of a two-storey, two-mezzanine logistics warehouse environment. This reinforced EPANEL ALC composite structure performs significantly better than unreinforced masonry under operational conditions typical of high-throughput warehousing.
EPANEL ALC — The Industrial Enclosure Benchmark
EPANEL ALC is manufactured by New Era Home (NEH) at its 400,000 m³/year facility in Ben Luc, Long An, to TCVN 7959:2017 standard. ANX, as the authorised distributor for Southern Vietnam, supplied EPANEL ALC and provided technical coordination for the XENIA 1 project. For industrial developers seeking a wall system that combines construction speed, fire safety, thermal performance and structural reliability, EPANEL ALC is the proven solution.
