Dexion Asia Pacific set to launch new state-of-the-art Malaysian manufacturing facility and regional HQ by last quarter of 2021.
Dexion Asia Pacific is taking the next step to strengthen their presence in the region by investing in a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Malaysia.
Dexion’s investment includes the purchase of a 6-acre land in the heart of Shah Alam, strategically situated amidst a cluster of multi-national companies. It is an established location with well-developed infrastructure and connectivity to Port Klang, Malaysia’s main logistics hub, which facilitates access to Dexion’s key export markets.
Dexion, with a legacy of being a pioneer of the racking industry, will be investing USD20 million into the new development. The sleek, modern structure features a steel and glass facade and will house a world-class manufacturing facility and regional APAC Sales Office.
“Malaysia is at the crossroads between East and West and enjoys ease of trading across borders which will benefit our growing APAC customer base. This facility will achieve greater efficiency in manufacturing processes and greatly enhance our business operations. Our 30-year presence in Malaysia has enabled us to build strong partnerships with many key customers and we would be proud to deliver even more top-notch solutions to them,” explains Damian Cross, Regional General Manager, Southeast Asia for Dexion Asia Pacific.
Construction is scheduled to commence in December 2020, and the site is expected to “go live” by of end 2021. The purpose-built facility is designed to produce best-in-class intralogistics storage solutions that will cater to export markets mainly Australia, Southeast Asia and India while continuing to serve a strong domestic demand. The company is also investing into new machinery to achieve high quality, high-volume production that delivers superior systems and service to customers in the region.
The new facility will also function as Dexion’s regional Design and Engineering Centre. It will also house an Innovation Centre for R&D purposes and an interactive showroom to showcase Dexion’s growing range of solutions.
