1. How do the sheets get to Laos?

There is no sea port in Laos. Containers from Vietnam travel by road, usually through one of the international border gates on the Vietnam–Laos border. Long sheets need a flat-bed or a 40 ft container; tell us the longest sheet length before quoting so the load plan fits.

• Delivery point: border gate, Vientiane, Savannakhet, Pakse or site.
• Paperwork: commercial invoice, packing list, Form D (ATIGA) for tariff preference; HS code 3925.90.00.
• Ask us for the road-freight option when you request the quote.

2. Which profile for Lao roofs?

Many Lao houses and temples have steep, layered roofs. The Spanish tile profile (1.05 m wide, 0.96 m cover, tile pitch 219 mm) follows that look and weighs only 5.2–6.2 kg/m², light enough for timber frames. Warehouses and farms use 5-wave (1.08/1.00 m) or 6-wave (1.06/0.95 m) sheets.

3. Why ASA/PVC in the Lao climate

March to May is hot and dry, then the monsoon arrives. PVC conducts heat poorly (under 0.2 W/m·K), so the space under the roof stays 6–8 °C cooler than under galvanised steel, and rain noise drops by about 80% (Santiago measurements). The ASA top layer holds colour for 30 years.

4. Factory and tests

Santiago is a Vietnamese manufacturer and a leading exporter of ASA/PVC roofing sheets (India 2023, Thailand 2024, United States 2025). Quatest measured tensile 25.7 MPa and flexural 51.6 MPa; a loaded truck drove over a sheet in our test.

5. Getting a quote
