Vertiv has opened its manufacturing facility in Johor, Malaysia, expanding the company’s manufacturing footprint to support growing demand for AI and high-density computing infrastructure across Asia, including Southeast Asia, North Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.
Located in Senai, Johor, one of Southeast Asia’s fastest-growing industrial markets, the approximately 236,000-square-feet (21,900-square-meter) facility strengthens Vertiv’s ability to support customers with regional manufacturing, engineering, logistics, and deployment capabilities.
The site benefits from strong regional connectivity and proximity to key technology and customer hubs across the region.
“Asia continues to be one of the fastest-growing regions for AI and digital infrastructure investment, and expanding our manufacturing footprint in Malaysia aims to further enhance our ability to support customers with quality, speed, scale, and resilience,” said Giordano Albertazzi, CEO of Vertiv.
“This facility represents another important step in our continuous capacity planning and deployment strategy as we further expand our regional and global manufacturing capabilities,” said Albertazzi.
Albertazzi added that as compute requirements evolve across multiple generations of AI infrastructure, customers need partners to provide power, cooling, and infrastructure solutions at scale.
“The Johor facility enhances our ability to help customers deploy critical digital infrastructure more efficiently while supporting long-term growth across Asia,” he said.
The Johor facility supports end-to-end manufacturing, assembly, and witness testing for advanced thermal and power infrastructure, enabling Vertiv to deliver high-density solutions with validated performance to help reduce deployment risk and accelerate time to capacity for customers across enterprise, cloud, and colocation environments.
The facility is expected to bring up to 500 skilled jobs to the region, when fully operationalized in 2027.
Manufacturing capabilities for large-scale thermal management, power, and infrastructure solutions for AI and traditional applications.
The facility leverages advanced manufacturing capabilities, automation tools, and comprehensive end-of-line testing processes designed to support quality, operational efficiency, and scalable production.
It has dedicated flushing and validation environments engineered to support the cleanliness and performance requirements of high-density liquid cooling systems for AI applications, compliant with industry standards.
The facility has a dedicated testing environment designed to validate liquid cooling and integrated power solutions under real-world conditions before deployment.
“The Johor facility is designed to enhance how we support customers across Asia, through closer regional collaboration and more responsive execution for complex infrastructure deployments,” said Paul Churchill, VP and general manager for Vertiv Asia.
“As customers scale increasingly sophisticated AI and high-density environments, proximity, responsiveness, and execution capabilities become increasingly important,” said Churchill.
