Kimlun Corporation

What Kimlun Corporation does

Kimlun Corporation Berhad is a Malaysian publicly-listed engineering and construction group headquartered in Johor Bahru, operating across five integrated business segments: (1) Construction & Engineering services covering residential, commercial, industrial, and infrastructure works (highways, bridges, interchanges, flyovers); (2) Industrial Building Systems (IBS) offering design and build using precast concrete and prefabricated steel structures; (3) Precast Concrete Products manufactured through its wholly-owned subsidiary SPC Industries Sdn Bhd at plants in Ulu Choh (Johor) and Seremban (Negeri Sembilan), with products ranging from box culverts and tunnel lining segments to segmental box girders and jacking pipes; (4) Property Development under the Hyve and Taman Puteri brands and a network of Kii-series subsidiaries; and (5) Quarry Products and services through KL Building Materials Sdn Bhd. The group is a CIDB Grade 7 registered contractor (with additional hospital-building specialization since 2020), holds ISO 9001:2000 quality certification, and its precast products carry SIRIM and TÜV SÜD PSB certifications in both Malaysia and Singapore.

The company generates revenue primarily through project-based construction contracts (tendered, milestone or completion-based) and product sales of precast concrete components and aggregates. Its go-to-market is enterprise and government-tender based, with no public price list — contract values have ranged from under RM20M to over RM1.4B. Customers span government agencies (Iskandar Regional Development Authority, DBKL, MBJB, Ministry-linked hospital projects), large enterprises (AEON Bukit Indah, Gleneagles Medini, Marlborough College Malaysia), and infrastructure consortia, with a recent strategic push into East Malaysia via the RM1.46B Pan Borneo Highway Sarawak works package executed through the 30%-owned Zecon Kimlun Consortium joint venture. The group markets directly through corporate website and tender participation, with channel coverage spanning Malaysia and Singapore.

Founded in 1977 as Kimlun Earthworks Sdn Bhd, the company was renamed Kimlun Sdn Bhd in 1994, listed on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia in June 2010, and has since executed more than 600 construction projects. Following a planned CEO succession on 1 May 2025 in which Pang Khang Hau (son of founding Executive Chairman Pang Tin @ Pang Yon Tin) took over the CEO role from Sim Tian Liang, leadership continuity is preserved while governance moves to a new generation. The group operates approximately 501-1000 employees across offices in Johor Bahru, Petaling Jaya, Singapore (I-Buildtech Solutions Pte Ltd), and the two manufacturing sites. Its single largest revenue concentration risk is the Pan Borneo contract; its principal growth lever is the combination of mega-infrastructure tender participation and the vertically integrated precast manufacturing base.
