PETALING JAYA: Integrated industrial space solutions provider AME Elite Consortium Bhd, via subsidiary Pentagon Land Sdn Bhd, will build a manufacturing facility for HYA Industry (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, the Malaysian unit of Shanghai-listed Wuxi Hyatech Co Ltd (Hyatech).
Situated on a 6.8-acre plot within AME Elite’s i-TechValley industrial park in Iskandar Puteri, Johor, the plant will feature a built-up of about 220,000 square feet, designed to accommodate the research, development, and production of Hyatech’s aerospace components and medical orthopaedic implant forgings.
The project expands i-TechValley’s portfolio of multinational tenants operating within the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ), aligning with Malaysia’s shift towards advanced manufacturing under the New Industrial Master Plan 2030, which is driving demand for industrial real estate capable of supporting complex operations.
AME Elite executive director and group CEO Dylan Tan Teck Eng said: “We are expanding our industrial space solutions to support integrated ecosystems for advanced technology industries. Hyatech’s selection of i-TechValley validates our capabilities to deliver mission-critical assets for high-precision operations.
“Multinational corporations establishing a footprint in Southeast Asia require customised facilities that meet global standards. As we deepen our expertise to fulfill the stringent specifications of the aerospace and healthcare sectors, AME Elite is capturing high-value cross-border capital flowing into the JS-SEZ and facilitating greater supply chain resilience.”
The latest award builds on AME Elite’s track record in the aviation and aerospace sectors, following a recent RM214.1 million contract to construct an aeronautical test cell facility for KLIA Aeropolis Sdn Bhd.
Additionally, the group is developing a multi-tenant industrial complex in Subang, Selangor, under a collaboration between Mitsui Fudosan Group and Malaysia Airports Holdings Bhd, supporting the growth of Malaysia’s aviation, air cargo, and maintenance, repair, and overhaul landscape.
At the i-TechValley plant, Hyatech will leverage its high-precision technology to manufacture complex components for demanding sectors. In aerospace, its compressor blades are built for commercial aviation engines worldwide. Similarly, in healthcare, Hyatech applies these specialised capabilities to serve the global orthopaedic device market.
The new Johor manufacturing base forms a vital part of Hyatech’s broader US$70 million (RM286.5 million) overseas expansion announced in November 2025, which includes the establishment of operations in Malaysia and Singapore to support its global market development, optimise supply chain capabilities, and strengthen its precision manufacturing footprint in the region.
