Not an ordinary industrial park

When Hap Seng Land embarked on its first industrial and
business park development, they wanted ‘a different concept’

to redefine the perception of industrial parks, especially at
Seksyen 23, Shah Alam, where industrial buildings were
ubiquitous.

With the growing e-commerce market and its associated
warehousing and logistics needs, the developer recognised the
immense potential of the industrial sector. Strategically located
near the Bukit Megawati roundabout, it had high visibility

driving the innovative approach to embrace green.

The only Green Industrial Park in town

The vision was to establish a mixed typology of industrial

manufacturing, warehousing, showroom, workshop, central
kitchen, data center, and office, among others.

a green industrial park, to promote resource efficiency and
circular economy practices. The aim was to embed industries

detached units, including industrial offices, Flatted Warehouses,
