The garment and textile industry requires high technical standards for infrastructure, environment, and fire safety. Choosing a factory that meets garment manufacturing standards ensures stable operation, compliance with international certifications (ISO, WRAP, LEED, BSCI), and optimized production costs.
Below are the key standards to consider when renting a garment factory in industrial parks (IPs).
1. Structural and Layout Standards
A qualified garment factory must not only have a strong and durable structure but also a design that optimizes workflow, safety, and energy efficiency.
Load-Bearing Structure Standards
Textile equipment such as weaving machines, knitting machines, and centrifuges have heavy loads and strong vibration.
Therefore, factory construction should ensure:
Reinforced concrete floor ≥ 20 cm, load capacity at least 2.5–3 tons/m².
Steel columns and frames reinforced to minimize vibration during continuous operation.
Floor surface flat, waterproof, and resistant to mild chemicals from dyeing solutions.
Spacious Layout, Good Ventilation, and Natural Lighting
Garment production areas require high ventilation to control temperature, humidity, and fiber dust:
Ceiling height 9–12 meters, with roof ventilation systems.
Natural skylights or polycarbonate roof panels covering at least 10% of the total roof area.
Technical aisles ≥ 2 meters between production lines for easy maintenance and movement.
2. Fire Protection and Prevention System
Garment factories have a high fire risk due to fiber dust, flammable fabrics, and high-power machinery. A specialized fire protection system is mandatory for this type of facility.
High-Density and Specialized Sprinkler System
Sprinkler head coverage should be 12–15 m² per head, denser than standard warehouses.
Use Quick Response (QR) sprinklers, suitable for areas with textile materials.
Firefighting Water Tank Capacity
Minimum water tank volume ≥ 300 m³, providing at least 90 minutes of continuous flow.
For factories over 10,000 m², reserve tanks or dedicated pump stations are required.
Mandatory Backup Pump System
At least 2 main pumps and 1 backup pump (diesel or 3-phase electric).
The system must include automatic periodic testing to ensure readiness.
High-Pressure Pumping and Large Pipe Network
Pump pressure 7–10 bar, sufficient for large or tall factory spaces.
Main pipelines galvanized steel DN150–DN200, painted red, with pressure gauges and air release valves.
3. Conclusion
When renting a garment factory in an industrial park, investors should carefully evaluate:
Structural strength, ventilation, and lighting design.
A certified and industry-standard fire protection system.
Convenient access and verified safety inspection reports.
Several industrial parks near Ho Chi Minh City—such as Phuoc Dong (Tay Ninh), Le Minh Xuan 3 (Binh Chanh), and Long Hau (Long An)—offer ready-built garment factories that meet international standards and are ideal for export-oriented supply chains.
