BSB Nanotech Announces Global Launch of BY-O-COAT Silica Portfolio from Rice husk at Coatings Expo Vietnam 2025

Innovative rice husk-derived silica additives mark a new era in sustainable coatings, reinforcing Vietnam’s leadership in advanced materials. 

Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam – June 27, 2025 – BSB Nanotechnology Joint Stock Company (BSB Nanotech) today announced the global launch of its BY-O-COAT product portfolio at Coatings Expo Vietnam 2025, marking a significant milestone in Vietnam’s emerging new materials industry. BY-O-COAT is a next-generation line of silica additives derived from rice husk ash, a renewable agricultural byproduct, offering the paint and coatings sector an ecofriendly alternative to traditional sand-based or quartz-based silica. This launch positions Vietnam at the forefront of sustainable industrial innovation as the country asserts its role in the high-value materials supply chain. 

The announcement ceremony will take place in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Green Technology from Rice Husk

BSB Nanotech is the world’s first science and technology company to research, produce, and commercialize silica from rice husk on an industrial scale. By upcycling abundant rice husk ashes, BSB Nanotech pioneers a sustainable path that replaces conventional silica sources (sand and quartz) known for their heavy environmental impact. Using advanced proprietary technology, rice husk are transformed into high-purity amorphous silica with superior costeffectiveness and environmental benefits. This breakthrough not only mitigates agricultural waste but also provides high-performance additives for industry, exemplifying a circular economy approach to materials science.

Comprehensive Technology Solution (CTS) Model Fuels Innovation

The rapid success of BSB Nanotech’s rice husk silica is powered by its CTS (Comprehensive Technology Solution) international cooperation model. CTS is a synchronized ecosystem encompassing Science, Investment, Manufacturing, Trading, and Government partnerships. The close connection of these five pillars ensures that:

• Scientific research drives the development of new rice husk-derived materials with diverse, effective applications.

• Investment capital expands industrial scale and accelerates commercialization of innovations.

• Advanced manufacturing guarantees consistent quality and competitive pricing for silica products.

• Global trade strategy brings Vietnamese high-tech products to international markets.

• Supportive government policies create favorable conditions for sustainable tech enterprise growth.

This holistic CTS approach – blending creativity, efficiency, and responsibility – is BSB Nanotech’s guiding philosophy. It embodies the company’s mission of “From Ash To Cash,” connecting Vietnamese scientific ingenuity with global opportunities. Through CTS, BSB Nanotech has built a robust innovation ecosystem that underpins breakthroughs like BY-OCOAT and ensures their successful scaling worldwide.

BY-O-COAT: Breakthrough Silica Additives Portfolio

BY-O-COAT represents a breakthrough in paint and coating additives, offering a comprehensive range of bio-based silica solutions for modern industry needs. Formulated as a full spectrum of functional silica additives, the BY-O-COAT line includes grades for matte finishes, protective and anti-scratch coatings, thermal insulation layers, water-resistant (hydrophobic) coatings, and even antimicrobial applications. These additives are engineered for broad compatibility, enhancing coatings on wood, HDF/MFC board, metal, concrete, plastic, glass, and more. Manufacturers can achieve consistent matte finishes, improved surface smoothness, scratch resistance, thermal stability, and durable water-repellent properties by incorporating BY-O-COAT into their formulations (as demonstrated in product testing and visuals at the launch).

With a specially designed sample kit, BSB Nanotech showcases the BY-O-COAT portfolio’s diverse applications and ease of integration. This sample case not only highlights the company’s R&D and manufacturing capabilities as a Vietnamese innovator, but also serves as an effective tool for rapid commercialization and customer adoption in global markets. BSB Nanotech’s intensive investment in R&D across multiple industries – from cosmetics and healthcare to rubber, agriculture, and especially eco-friendly coatings – has culminated in BY-O-COAT’s development, underlining the versatility and high performance of rice husk silica technology.

“The BY-O-COAT series is a game-changer for the coatings industry. We see tremendous potential for global collaboration through this portfolio, which firmly establishes Vietnam’s presence in the international advanced materials market,” said Mr. Christopher Nghia Do, Chief Technology and Commercial Officer of BSB Nanotech. “By delivering sustainable, highquality silica additives at competitive prices, we are not only meeting industry needs but also proudly demonstrating Vietnamese innovation on the world stage.” 

BY-O-COAT product line will be officially launched 

Global Launch Event and Strategic Significance

The global launch ceremony for BY-O-COAT will take place on June 27, 2025, in Ho Chi Minh City, coinciding with Coatings Expo Vietnam 2025. To engage international partners in real time, BSB Nanotech is also hosting a live Zoom conference that will bridge Biosilico product distributors across more than 30 countries. This hybrid event format ensures that global paint and coatings industry stakeholders, distributors, and media can participate in the unveiling, reflecting the worldwide scope of BY-O-COAT’s rollout.

At the launch event, the company will present product samples, and supporting visuals highlighting BY-O-COAT’s features and benefits. These materials – including performance charts and application examples – were showcased to attendees and are available to media upon request. The fanfare around BY-O-COAT’s debut underscores the pioneering role of Vietnamese science-and-technology enterprises in driving economic development. BSB Nanotech’s innovation directly aligns with Vietnam’s national strategy to develop new advanced materials and promotes the rising contribution of Vietnam’s private sector in the tech-driven economy. Notably, the launch supports the spirit of Politburo Resolution 57- NQ/TW (on new materials development) and Resolution 68-NQ/TW (on elevating the private economy’s role in the new era) – signaling strong synergy between BSB Nanotech’s initiative and Vietnam’s strategic directives.
