The award-winning project, titled “A Green, Smart, Light Transmittance Wooden Roof,” introduces a cutting-edge solution that transforms conventional wood into a transparent, durable, and eco-friendly material. Designed to replace traditional glass and plastic roofing, the product offers a sustainable alternative that supports environmentally responsible construction and reduces non-biodegradable waste.
A garden villa model featured the team’s light transmittance wooden roof.
The project was developed by Truong Ngoc Toan and Vu Viet Hoang (Faculty of Petroleum and Energy), Nguyen Thi Hai and Nguyen Mai Han (Faculty of Economics and Business Administration), under the guidance of Assoc. Prof. Dr. Tong Thi Thanh Huong, Vice Dean of the Faculty of Petroleum and Energy.
Project members received Certificates of Merit from the Ministry of Education and Training.
Through a unique wood treatment process, the product achieves high light transmittance while maintaining excellent thermal insulation and mechanical strength. It is well-suited for applications in residential buildings, public infrastructure, smart agricultural facilities, and eco-friendly architecture. More than just a startup concept, the project reflects a bold vision for sustainable development and innovation in green technology.
This remarkable accomplishment highlights HUMG students’ passion for innovation and their commitment to creating real-world impact. It also affirms the university’s mission to empower future changemakers who will lead the way in scientific advancement and social progress.
