Outdoor Space Challenges For Glass Manufacturing Businesses
Areas used by glass manufacturers to store products, raw materials, or handle loading and unloading activities often require protection from weather conditions.
Heavy rainfall can affect packaging, loading, unloading, and transportation activities, while prolonged periods of hot weather can increase the surface temperature of goods. In particular, adapting to changing weather conditions can be challenging for businesses when loading and unloading areas are completely exposed to the outdoors.
Instead of constructing a permanent concrete warehouse, businesses can choose a mobile roofing system to make better use of their existing yard space.
This solution offers three key advantages:
– Maximizes existing space instead of requiring the construction of an entirely new warehouse.
– Protects loading, unloading, storage, and production areas from direct sunlight and rain.
– Allows greater flexibility: the roofing system can be moved and retracted when the company needs to change the use of the area.
When consulting for Vinacam Glass Joint Stock Company, Kien Tao Viet paid particular attention to these challenges.
17×10m Mobile Dome Roof Solution For Vinacam
Following an on-site assessment, Kien Tao Viet implemented a 17×10m manually operated mobile dome roof system, covering approximately 170m².
The key feature of this project is not simply the creation of a fixed covered area, but its ability to provide flexible coverage and mobility within the same space, allowing the system to adapt to the operational needs of the factory.
Galvanized steel frame structure
Based on the construction footage, the system uses galvanized steel components, providing the frame with better resistance to oxidation and corrosion compared with conventional steel when used in outdoor environments.
The steel frame components are prefabricated into individual sections before being transported to the site for installation. The system is assembled using mechanical connections, creating a roof structure that can be opened, closed, and moved according to the designed operating mechanism.
Prefabricating the components at the workshop ensures a high level of consistency while also helping shorten the installation time at the factory.

Heavy Duty Load Bearing Wheel System A Key Feature Of The Project
One of the most notable features shown in the video is the heavy-duty load-bearing wheel system installed at the bottom of the mobile frame sections. Instead of using an electric motor, the Vinacam project uses a manual push operation.
The wheel system is designed to reduce friction during movement, allowing operators to easily push or pull each frame section to:
– Expand the covered area when protection is required.
– Retract the roof when it is not in use.
– Create convenient space for forklifts, trucks, and loading and unloading operations.
– Adjust the coverage area according to actual operational requirements.
This solution is particularly suitable for areas that require the roof to be opened and closed occasionally while still maintaining a high level of mobility and flexibility.
Specialized PVC fabric protecting the space below
The roof system uses white specialized PVC fabric, which is prefabricated, processed, and sewn before being installed on the structure.
In the video, Kien Tao Viet also demonstrates the fabric’s construction, stitching details, and thickness. Reinforced stitching is applied at load-bearing and connection points to improve the overall strength and durability of the roofing material.
The PVC fabric can have an expected service life of approximately 10-15 years, depending on environmental conditions, usage frequency, and maintenance.
PVC fabric offers several advantages that make it suitable for industrial mobile roofing systems, including:
– Waterproofing capability, helping protect the space below from rain.
– Reduced direct exposure to sunlight, helping provide a more comfortable covered environment.
– Dust protection, helping shield goods and working areas from outdoor conditions.
– Lightweight construction compared with many rigid roofing materials.
– Easy retraction and folding together with the mobile frame system.
For a project covering approximately 170m², using PVC fabric instead of conventional fixed roofing materials also helps maintain the mobility and flexibility of the entire roofing system.
How Does The Mobile Dome Roof Optimize The 170m² Space?
After completion, the area in front of Vinacam’s factory was transformed with an additional covered space of approximately 170 m².
This newly covered area provides additional space for various operational activities, including:
– Goods Storage: Helps minimize the need to place materials or finished products directly outdoors and exposed to changing weather conditions.
– Loading and Unloading: Provides a sheltered area where workers can carry out loading and unloading activities more conveniently and efficiently.
– Connecting the Factory with the Outdoor Area: The roof can be opened, closed, and moved, allowing the business to adjust the available space according to its operational needs.
– Optimizing Available Space: Instead of leaving the yard unused, the business can transform it into a practical working area while maintaining the flexibility to change its function in the future.
Construction Time For The Retractable Dome Canopy Project In Tan Uyen
Another advantage of the mobile dome roof solution is that most of the structural components can be prefabricated at the workshop before being transported to the construction site.
For the Vinacam project, the installation process was carried out section by section. The technical team first assembled the steel frames and connected the structural components, followed by the installation and completion of the heavy-duty wheel system. The PVC fabric was then installed and tensioned to complete the roofing system.
Reducing construction time is particularly important for operating factories, as it helps minimize disruption to existing production lines and goods transportation activities.
Why Did Vinacam Choose A Retractable Dome Canopy Project in Tan Uyen Instead Of A Permanent Warehouse?
For Vinacam, the mobile dome roof provides a more flexible solution for utilizing its existing outdoor space. Instead of investing in a permanent warehouse structure, the company can create a covered area while maintaining the ability to open, close, retract, and adjust the roof according to actual operational requirements.
This flexibility makes the mobile dome roof a practical option for industrial yards, loading and unloading areas, temporary storage spaces, and factory logistics zones where space utilization and operational flexibility are important considerations.
Not every outdoor area within a factory requires investment in a permanent warehouse structure.
For areas that need protection from sunlight and rain, goods storage, loading and unloading, or temporary space expansion, a mobile dome roof can be a practical option to consider.
Compared with fixed roofing systems, mobile roofing offers several advantages:
– Mobility: The system can be opened, closed, and moved according to actual operational needs.
– Cost-effective investment: There is no need to invest in a complete permanent warehouse structure for an area that is primarily used for weather protection.
– Fast installation: Structural components are prefabricated at the workshop before being transported and assembled at the construction site.
– Adaptability to existing layouts: The system is suitable for factories that frequently change storage locations, loading areas, or transportation routes.
– Suitable for various industries: Mobile dome roofs can be applied in glass manufacturing, mechanical engineering, food processing, logistics, warehousing, industrial production, and many other factory environments.
Note: Whether a mobile roofing system requires a construction permit or must comply with specific fire prevention and firefighting (PCCC) requirements depends on the structure, location, scale and applicable regulations of each project. Businesses should conduct an on-site assessment and obtain appropriate legal consultation before implementation.
