With top manufacturers, green features and a thriving business hub, Eco Business Park V park is raising the bar on industrial parks
IN the heart of Klang Valley's northwest corridor, an industrial revolution is taking shape.
Eco Business Park V (EBP V), developed by EcoWorld Development Group Bhd, isn't just another industrial zone – it's a future-forward blueprint for how Malaysia envisions the next chapter of industrialisation.
With a gross development value of RM3.5bil, EBP V – which spans 311ha (769ac) – is EcoWorld's largest green business park to date, and a key pillar in its industrial and economic growth ambitions.
Located in the burgeoning growth belt of Puncak Alam, EBP V sits adjacent to the 566ha (1,400ac) Eco Grandeur township, offering immediate synergy with residential, commercial, and industrial components already in full swing.
This translates to one thing for business owners: a thriving ecosystem that delivers workforce access, liveability and logistical advantage – all in one destination.
Industry meets infrastructure
Connectivity is one of EBP V's strongest propositions.Strategically located just 35km from the main seaport via the West Coast Expressway and only 9km from the North–South Expressway (Exit 115 Rawang South), EBP V offers seamless links to Malaysia's key logistics arteries – including Penang, Johor, Seremban and Melaka.
Proximity to Port Klang – Malaysia's largest seaport – and connectivity via the Kuala Lumpur–Kuala Selangor Expressway (LATAR), the Guthrie Corridor Expressway (GCE), the Damansara-Shah Alam Elevated Expressway (DASH) and the New Klang Valley Expressway (NKVE) further cements EBP V as a logistics hub of the future.
The industrial park will be connected directly to the LATAR interchange, future-proofing its access and scalability.
Since its launch in 2017, EBP V has also been drawing a steady influx of industrial players across diverse sectors, from fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG) and e-commerce, to F&B, logistics, electronics, furniture manufacturing, pharmaceuticals and medical supplies.
To date, over 400 companies have chosen to plant their roots here, which include names like EB Frozen Food, Baosteel Malaysia, Rurutiki, GoldenHome, and SKB Shutters Manufacturing – each adding new layers to a dynamic, thriving industrial hub.
Master-planned project
EBP V is made out of five distinct precincts – East Gate, West Gate, Central Gate, North Gate, and South Gate – each designed to serve the evolving needs of modern industry.
With a high number of units already handed over and actively operating, the park is a hive of productivity, fuelling significant job creation and business momentum across sectors. Yet, the journey is far from over.
With a robust landbank still available, EBP V is primed for future expansion.
Businesses have the rare advantage of scalability in a maturing, high-demand location with options of land plots, built-to-suit solutions, or built-to-lease options.
East Gate and West Gate, launched in 2017 and 2020, are now fully completed and sold, with high occupancy rates.
East Gate caters to small and medium enterprises (SMEs), with service factories, cluster factories, semi-d factories and detached factories, while the West Gate offers industrial land for large enterprises.
North Gate and Central Gate, launched between 2020 and 2022 respectively, are nearing full completion, and likewise, have achieved impressive sales rates.
With land spanning 0.4ha–3ha (1ac–3ac) it is ideal for small and medium industries.
South Gate, launching Q3 2024, offers something special: large-format industrial land from 8ha (20ac) and above, perfect for warehousing, logistics and high-capacity manufacturing operations.
EBP V spans five thoughtfully-planned precincts, with ample space to cater to the diverse needs of SMEs, as well as medium and large enterprises.
Business-ready
What sets EBP V apart is its complete industrial experience. Businesses here benefit from on-site, well-managed worker accommodations (via M Jaya Management), ensuring access to a steady labour pool.
Security is paramount, with 24/7 surveillance, gated precincts, and on-site management by Neighbourhood Property Management Services ensuring peace of mind for both tenants and workers.
And when it comes to getting started, EcoWorld's One-Stop Business Solution removes the typical headaches associated with industrial setup.
From securing utility connections and licensing to applying for tax incentives and financing, a dedicated team – backed by strong local government relationships – makes the onboarding process seamless and swift for both local and international investors.
Beyond industrial
In Febuary 2025, EcoWorld's subsidiary Paragon Pinnacle Sdn Bhd sealed a RM266.1mil deal with a private company, selling 23.4ha (58ac) of leasehold land for the development of a hyperscale data centre.
The facility will support the company's cloud infrastructure and AI ambitions across South-East Asia.
EcoWorld's other unit, Quantum Alpha Sdn Bhd, will construct the shell and core of the data centres on 37.4ha (92.44ac) within EBP V.
This evolution from traditional industrial to digital infrastructure signals a new era for the park – and for Malaysia's digital economy.
Whether you're an SME scaling up, a logistics giant moving goods across borders, or a tech titan building data infrastructure, EBP V offers more than just space.
With its powerful combination of infrastructure, connectivity, sustainability, and ecosystem support, it delivers a springboard to the future.
