Amcor opened an advanced healthcare packaging coating facility in Subang Jaya, Selangor.
The facility, representing an investment of more than $35 million, introduces air-knife coating technology to the region for the production of coated medical paper used in sterile medical device packaging.
The facility expands Amcor's existing healthcare packaging operations into a fully integrated manufacturing site, positioned to support healthcare customers across the region with greater speed and reliability. By localizing production, Amcor gains dual sourcing options, strengthens long-term supply chain reliability and creates a platform for pilot-to-production scale-up, supporting rapid trials, closer technical collaboration and faster commercialization for regional customers.
The company's technical specialists from the United States worked closely with the Malaysian team in installation, commissioning and hands-on operational training, embedding advanced manufacturing capabilities locally.
The facility is equipped with advanced production systems including inspection and automated manufacturing processes. It incorporates closed-loop process controls, in-line quality monitoring and optimized drying systems to enhance product consistency.
