VICOM invests S$60M in new testing hub

VICOM Ltd has officially opened its new Integrated Hub at Jalan Papan, a S$60m, five-storey facility designed to enhance its vehicle inspection and non-vehicle testing capabilities. This state-of-the-art hub aims to support Singapore’s evolving testing, inspection, and certification industry by integrating advanced testing technology and optimising operational efficiency.

The facility, located in Jurong, consolidates VICOM’s vehicle inspection and non-vehicle testing services under one roof. With upgraded equipment and an optimised layout, VICOM’s subsidiary, JIC Inspection Pte Ltd, is set to improve its inspection processes, managing increased demand more efficiently. The hub also expands SETSCO’s laboratory space, enabling the development of innovative testing capabilities to meet rising industrial demands.

In line with its commitment to sustainability, the hub features high energy efficiency, solar panels, and EV chargers, earning the Building and Construction Authority Green Mark Platinum Award. VICOM CEO Sim Wing Yew stated, “The Jalan Papan Integrated Hub gives VICOM and SETSCO a strong foundation to grow and strengthen our skills to support our new partners, boost technological resources and reaffirm our dedication to delivering professional testing services.”

The hub is part of VICOM’s broader strategy to adapt to the automotive industry’s shift towards electrification and the increasing complexity of industrial testing. Operations at the facility will commence on 16 February 2026, with full operations expected by the second half of the year.
