Three years ago Mondoro registered the UL certification for our Hanoi Vietnam lamp factory. We are so far the only lamp factory with the Portable UL Certification in Hanoi. Our factory is located in the center of the Porcelain Village of Bat Trang, Vietnam. Our specialty is producing UL certified lamps for our Medium to High End clients in the United States—which as you know requires UL certification for imported electrical items.

Mondoro produced UL certified lamps in China long before opening our Vietnam factory. We were not new to the issues of lamp production when we first opened our factory, and we were prepared to meet strict inspection standards required by the UL certification agency who routinely check our factory. Our experience in China provided us with a head start, and has helped us overcome the usual start up issues.  Vietnam offers many very unique materials and unusual craftsmanship that has challenged our designers to provide our customers with ever evolving products not available anywhere else.     

Most of our UL parts are imported from China, so our China Office must source and purchase these parts. Some non essential UL parts can be found in Vietnam. Since UL certification is quite new to Vietnam, the supply and sources for UL certified parts is limited. Many who come here are surprised at how few UL parts are sold within Vietnam. This may change, but since China is the main supplier for UL parts it is hard to see Vietnam becoming a major supplier anytime soon.  

This is a key advantage that Mondoro has with our UL operation in Vietnam;  we are able to source and purchase qualified parts in China for our UL operation in Vietnam. Since we custom produce a wide variety of lamps we must sometimes quickly source and ship in from China a style or part not carried in our stock.

We are well located here in Hanoi next to the small factory craftsmen producing our non-UL parts, the bases and other items needed for our lamps including lamp shades.  If you are interested in finding out more about how Mondoro can help you to supply unique and interesting UL certified lamps from Vietnam, please contact us at sales@mondoro.com
