28th October 2026
MALAYSIA: German fan and motor manufacturer EBM-Papst has officially opened a new Air Technology Hub in Shah Alam.
The new hub brings together local assembly, warehousing, application support, digital services and customer training, strengthening the company’s ability to serve customers in Malaysia and across Southeast Asia with faster response times, enhanced technical support and improved local availability.
The hub covers approximately 3,000m2, including a 2,000m2 warehouse, a 500m2 assembly and laboratory area, and a 500m2 office area. It supports the local assembly of high-demand products for various application types, as well as quality analysis, digital services and solutions, and customer training. The warehouse will stock selected products locally, helping improve availability and shorten delivery times.
The Air Technology Hub extends local capabilities across the product lifecycle. These include local return material authorisation analysis, repair and refurbishment of selected products, fan health monitoring and retrofit proof-of-concept initiatives. Together with technical training for customers, partners and employees, these services support knowledge transfer and local talent development while bringing expertise and services closer to local markets.
The facility also includes a customer experience centre where customers and partners can explore EBM-Papst technologies for different applications and discuss opportunities to improve system performance through intelligent controls, digital connectivity and retrofit solutions.
Malaysia is said to have been selected for the new hub because of its established industrial base, skilled workforce and strategic location within Southeast Asia. It forms part of EBM-Papst’s regional hub network in Asia-Pacific, alongside the South China Air Technology Hub in Guangdong, China.
