Lanco Integrated vice-president (sales and marketing) Barry Rahimian said the new manufacturing facility will focus on constructing, designing and building a customised engineered turnkey automated assembly system.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe system is used in various industries, including medical, commercial industrial, automotive, aerospace, consumer products and others.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe expect the first designed and built machine to be ready for shipping by the end of this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is an incredible and exciting project for us because we believe that Penang is strategically located as a manufacturing hub. Penang\u2019s location enables us to further expand our operations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are also very grateful for the strong support from the Federal Government, Penang government and all the relevant agencies.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe look forward to working with all of you to achieve great success,\u201d Barry said in his speech at the opening ceremony today.<\/p>\n

Penang Entrepreneurial Development, Trade and Industry Committee chairman Datuk Abdul Halim Hussain, who attended the ceremony, said Penang is excited and proud to welcome the presence of Lanco Integrated here.<\/p>\n

\u201cPenang is pleased to be the choice location for Lanco\u2019s new manufacturing facility.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy sincerest congratulations to the Lanco Integrated team and all those involved for their dedication and hard work in achieving this milestone.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are confident that Penang\u2019s versatile talent pool, supportive infrastructure and strong industry clusters will enable industry players to enjoy far-reaching benefits in terms of operational advantages.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith 50 years of industrial excellence, Penang has built a strong base in electrical and electronics (E&E) manufacturing, which acts as a springboard for diversification into other industries.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor instance, Penang is known as a key regional hub for automation and equipment manufacturing, serving the needs of various industries along the value chain.<\/p>\n

\u201cAbove that, Penang is also a hub for the medical device industry in this region, having the highest concentrations of medical technology companies in Malaysia and Southeast Asia,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Abdul Halim also added that embracing technology and automation is among the keys to remaining competitive and operationally efficient in the market.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is the determining factor for business players in Malaysia to future-proof themselves by adopting cutting-edge technology, such as artificial intelligence (AI), the internet of things (IoT), and robotics, among others.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is critical for industrial players to raise productivity and to be ahead of the curve.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe state government, supported by InvestPenang, is also committed to creating an environment that encourages companies to integrate advance technology into their businesses,\u201d Abdul Halim said.<\/p>\n

Also present during the opening ceremony were Chief Minister\u2019s special investment adviser Datuk Seri Lee Kah Choon and Lanco Integrated chief executive officer Bob Kuniega.<\/p>\n
