Massive industrial site in Jurong Island put up for sale as Teijin Polycarbonate exits

It's closing down its Singapore plant.

The site of Teijin Polycarbonate’s current plant in Jurong Island has been put up for sale by expression of interest, following the group’s decision to shut down its local operations.

The facility, located at 111 Sakra Avenue, Jurong Island, has a size of 1.5m square feet and has a a remaining tenure of 12 years, with an option to renew for another 30 years.

Property consultant Colliers International will be in charge of the property’s sale. Interested parties are invited to submit their offers to Colliers International by 12 August 2015, at 4 pm.

Under the 2014 Master Plan, the subject site is zoned for Business 2 use with a maximum approved plot ratio of 1.0.

A purpose-built industrial plant and ancillary buildings – including warehouses, office and laboratory buildings, main and utility substations, and equipment rooms, among others – currently occupy the site.

Under the reinstatement requirement by JTC Corporation, all buildings and plants will be demolished, except for the sub-stations and two warehouses, which have floor areas of approximately 64,720 sq ft and 58,520 sq ft. The reinstatement works are expected to complete by end 2017.

Teijin resolved to withdraw from the business of its polycarbonate resin subsidiary in Singapore in November last year because it “lacks competitiveness in terms of energy costs”. The plant will close down at the end of December 2015.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
