The Industrial Phở of Wear Protection

The Beginning: A Vietnamese Vision for Global Industry

In the heart of Vietnam’s industrial landscape, Bao Chi Company (BCC) has spent over two decades developing solutions that help heavy industries work longer, cleaner, and smarter.
From cement plants and steel mills to mining and thermal power, one problem remains constant — WEAR.
Every ton of rock, clinker, or ore grinds against steel, eroding its surface, shortening its life, and driving up both cost and carbon footprint.

From this challenge, D-Plate was born — a breakthrough in wear protection designed not just as a product, but as a philosophy of industrial balance and sustainability.

The Idea: From a Bowl of Phở to a Plate of Steel

In Vietnamese culture, Phở is more than food — it’s an art of harmony.
A good bowl of Phở balances flavors, textures, and timing: the broth rich but clear, the noodles soft but firm, and every ingredient contributing its unique character.

D-Plate follows the same principle.

Each wear plate is a perfectly balanced combination of two essential layers:

A strong, ductile steel base — the “noodle” that gives shape and flexibility.
A hard alloy overlay, rich in chromium and other wear-resistant elements — the “broth” that provides depth, protection, and endurance.

Together, they create a product that’s not only tough but also tailored — engineered for harmony between strength, flexibility, and resistance.

The Technology: Powder Overlay Process (POP)

At the heart of D-Plate lies POP – Powder Overlay Process, BCC’s proprietary technology that fuses alloy powders into steel with precision and control.
By adjusting the “recipe” — the type and ratio of metal powders — POP allows each plate to be customized for specific wear conditions, such as:

Abrasion – surface scratching and grinding.
Erosion – particle flow and impact.
Corrosion – chemical and moisture damage.
Impact – sudden force or shock.
Heat & cavitation – high-temperature and fluid turbulence.

Each condition demands a different metallurgical balance — just as each type of Phở demands a different broth.
POP makes that possible.

The System: D-Plate Standard Workshop

Beyond technology, BCC built a new manufacturing philosophy: localization through standardization.

Instead of exporting finished plates from a central plant, BCC provides customers with a D-Plate Standard Workshop — a turnkey production unit equipped with certified machinery, materials, and training.

This model allows wear plates to be produced locally, right where they are needed — in cement factories, steel mills, or mining sites — under the same strict BCC quality standards.

This approach offers major advantages:

Reduced logistics and emissions — less transport, fewer imports.
Shorter lead time — faster repair, less downtime.
Regional empowerment — transferring technology and creating skilled jobs.
CBAM compliance — enabling traceable, low-carbon, localized manufacturing.

Each workshop is, in essence, an “industrial Phở kitchen”, where local engineers “cook” wear-resistant plates according to BCC’s master recipe.

The Spirit: Vietnamese Balance, Global Ambition

D-Plate is proudly made in Vietnam, but built for the world.

It embodies the Vietnamese spirit of harmony and resilience — tough but adaptive, practical but full of character.
It’s a product that carries both engineering precision and cultural warmth — where technology meets identity.

In a world chasing automation and uniformity, D-Plate stands for something deeper:
the belief that true strength comes from balance — between durability and flexibility, between global technology and local wisdom.

The Promise: Local Strength for a Low-Carbon Industry

For our partners in cement, mining, steel, and power, D-Plate offers a new way forward:

Less waste, fewer replacements.
Lower emissions, longer uptime.
Smarter workshops, stronger communities.

Whether installed in Vietnam, Indonesia, Egypt, or Australia, every D-Plate carries the same essence — crafted precision, local pride, and lasting trust.

Because like Phở, the secret to excellence isn’t in one ingredient —
it’s in how everything comes together.
