VIETNAM CHILLER MARKET OVERVIEW
According to the Vietnam Chiller Market Report and Forecast 2025–2034 published by Expert Market Research on May 30, 2025, the market size reached approximately USD 120.80 million in 2024 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 5.2% from 2025 to 2034, reaching USD 200.55 million by 2034. This creates a solid foundation for the development of the Vietnam ODM chiller sector.
Rising Demand Driven by Climate and Environmental Requirements
Vietnam’s humid tropical climate keeps industrial chiller demand consistently high. A 2025 report by the Energy Transition Partnership (EPT) forecasts that the number of industrial cooling systems (including chillers) in Vietnam will increase rapidly over the next decade. At the same time, low-GWP refrigerants such as R-290 and R-600a are increasingly encouraged to reduce CO₂-equivalent emissions, driving the adoption of new cooling technologies and products that meet stricter environmental standards.
A real-world example of this growth is the Chilisin electronics plant project. According to the Environmental Permit Proposal Report in 2023, the factory installed five large-capacity chillers for its electronic production lines—highlighting the essential role of industrial cooling solutions.
Growth of Maintenance and Operation Services
Beyond the surge in new installations, the chiller service market is also expanding. Technical articles published in March 2024 recorded a significant increase in chiller failures during peak heat periods, leading to higher demand for periodic maintenance and inspections.
In parallel, analyses by the Vietnam HVAC & MEP Engineering Association (2023–2024) show that most factories in southern industrial zones maintain a 3–6 month chiller maintenance cycle to ensure performance and operational safety. This reflects strong industrial dependence on chiller systems and pushes demand for high-quality, custom-designed chillers.
Export Capability – A Platform for the ODM Model
Data from Volza indicates that Vietnam currently has around 15 chiller/freezer suppliers participating in global supply chains. Although still modest in scale, this illustrates Vietnam’s growing potential as a regional manufacturing hub. This production capability enables Vietnam ODM chiller development, especially as foreign companies increasingly look for design-and-manufacturing partners in Asia.
Environmental Standards Pressure – A Driving Force for ODM
According to new regulations issued by the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment, starting 2045, chillers and industrial refrigeration equipment must comply with stricter refrigerant standards (limiting high-GWP HFCs). Combined with construction standards from the Ministry of Construction, businesses will be required to invest heavily in R&D, materials, and new cooling technologies.
This is why the Vietnam ODM chiller model is becoming more attractive—allowing companies to outsource full research, design, and production according to their specifications.
OPPORTUNITIES AND ADVANTAGES FOR B2B BUSINESSES
With the Vietnam ODM chiller model, B2B enterprises can benefit from multiple advantages:
1. Reduced Initial Investment Costs: No need to build a factory or maintain a large R&D team—saving millions of dollars in fixed expenses.
2. Leverage Local Manufacturing Capabilities: Vietnamese manufacturers offer competitive labor costs, flexible fabrication capabilities, and accumulated experience in HVAC manufacturing.
3. Fully Customized Products Meeting International Standards
Businesses can request comprehensive customization, including:
-
- Chiller capacity
- Compressor type (scroll, screw, centrifugal)
- Cooling method (air-cooled or water-cooled)
- Low-GWP or eco-friendly refrigerants
- Casing design, branding, and packaging
4. Compliance With New Environmental Regulations: A capable ODM manufacturer can support businesses in meeting requirements for energy efficiency, refrigerant transition, and emission reduction.
5. Faster Time-to-Market: With an experienced engineering team, product development and market launch time are significantly shortened.
