Aratas Strengthens Commitment In Malaysia With Rm259 Mln Manufacturing Investment In Selangor

BANTING, Nov 13 (Bernama) -- Aratas Components Malaysia Sdn Bhd (ACM), a unit of Japan-based Aratas Corporation, further strengthens its long-term commitment in Malaysia with an investment of approximately RM259 million in a new manufacturing facility at COMPASS Industrial Park @ Kota Seri Langat.

Selangor State Investment, Trade, and Mobility Exco Ng Sze Han said the facility being developed on a 6.88-hectare site is expected to more than double ACM’s production capacity once completed.

“When this factory is fully completed, which is expected by the end of 2027, more than one-tenth of Aratas’s global production capacity will be in Banting. This demonstrates high confidence towards Selangor and local talent.

“We measure the success of an investment based on the lifestyle changes it brings. Economic growth must be felt in pay slips, at family dining tables and in every district in Selangor,” he said while speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony for the new ACM manufacturing facility at COMPASS Industrial Park @ Kota Seri Langat, here today.

Ng said ACM’s strategic investment continues a 52-year legacy of developing local talent.

ACM was formerly known as Omron Malaysia Sdn Bhd and was established in Sungei Way in 1974.

Also present were Aratas Corporation Global Production Headquarters head Takayuki Matsuoka, ACM managing director Ryota Goto and Invest Selangor Bhd chief executive officer Datuk Hasan Azhari Idris.

Meanwhile, Ng said the state government always emphasises the “Menjalin Selangor Bersama” so that every district benefits from development and high-quality job opportunities.

“From January to June this year, Kuala Langat successfully attracted RM1.75 billion in approved investments, surpassing Shah Alam, Subang Jaya, and Petaling Jaya, and ranking second after Klang.

“Kuala Langat also recorded the highest foreign investment amounting to RM1.35 billion compared to any other local authority area in Selangor, which is expected to create nearly 1,000 job opportunities,” he said.
