Syntec Technology, a leader in smart manufacturing solutions, has announced the Phase II development of its Syntec Intelligence Technology Sdn. Bhd. facility in Malaysia, with an investment exceeding RM78m. This expansion is designed to address increasing demand from the machine tool industry, particularly in India, and to enhance the company’s global supply chain resilience.
The expansion, part of Syntec Group’s strategy to adapt to rapid changes in the global manufacturing landscape, will be implemented in phases. This approach allows for operational flexibility and helps manage execution and geopolitical risks. Otis Siah, Global Director of Syntec Intelligence, stated, “Establishing and expanding our operations in Malaysia is a strategic move to better support fast-growing demand across ASEAN.”
Scheduled for completion in early 2027, the new facility will manufacture and test industrial controllers and assemble intelligent robotic arm systems. It is expected to become a key manufacturing hub for markets in India, Turkey, ASEAN, and the United States, reducing delivery lead times and enhancing local supply capabilities.
Grant Kuo, Independent Director of Syntec Technology, emphasised the project’s significance, stating, “By strengthening our overseas manufacturing footprint, we are enhancing supply chain flexibility whilst positioning the group to capture sustainable growth in multiple high-potential markets.”
The project, developed in partnership with Malaysian construction firm Pembinaan Tuju Setia Sdn. Bhd., will incorporate green building design and energy-efficient construction methods, aligning with Syntec’s environmental, social, and governance commitments. This expansion is part of Syntec’s long-term strategy to deliver stable and sustainable growth globally.
