As a result, Ma Chau silk has gradually been accepted by the market. More and more products have been sold.

To improve the quality of the product, Yen invested more modern equipment in the plant, including a digital programming technology weaving patterns on natural silk fabrics and a system of drying and dying using herbs.

Currently, Yen provides about 3,000 meters of fabric. Several famous fashion brands choose Ma Chau fabric for their designs.

2018 was the year marking the birth of the Ma Chau silk visual identity. Also in this year, Ma Chau silk was selected as the only brand in Vietnam to be protected as a global brand by the Korean Intellectual Property Office (KIPO) and the Korea Invention Promotion Association (KIPA).
