MEP, CSA, and Cleanroom Capabilities

Conwall’s expertise spans the foundational elements of building infrastructure—Civil, Structural and Architectural (CSA) as well as Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP)—paired with highly specialised cleanroom construction skills, essential for modern IC and semiconductor fabrication. Cleanrooms are crucial, providing the ultra-low particulate environments needed for chip manufacturing.​

  • MEP: Ensures reliable delivery of utilities, power management, and process-critical services vital for safe, efficient plant operation.
  • CSA: Delivers robust frameworks and space-efficient layouts that maximise operational flexibility and durability.
  • Cleanroom Construction: Integrates HVAC, advanced filtration, and environmental control systems—enabling compliance with stringent ISO classifications and supporting next-generation semiconductor processes.​

Industry Context

The global market for cleanroom construction in semiconductors is forecast to grow from $1.67 billion in 2024 to $2.4 billion by 2034, driven by digitalisation, 5G, IoT, and renewable energy manufacturing. Malaysia remains a strategic hub in this ecosystem, further elevating the importance of trusted construction partners who can deliver complex solutions on time and within budget.​

The Conwall Difference: Innovation, Quality, and Speed

Conwall is frequently chosen for high-tech and time-critical industrial builds due to:

  • Accelerated timelines: Demonstrated ability to execute vast projects, some exceeding 40,000 m², within 4-7 months.​
  • Quality focus: Integrating global best practices and delivering defect-free, future-ready environments.
  • Technical innovation: Embracing new construction methodologies and technologies to address evolving industry needs.

Value Delivery Beyond Construction

Conwall’s approach goes beyond mere project handover:

  • Client Partnership: Early and ongoing collaboration ensures consistent alignment with industry standards and end-user requirements.
  • Integrated Solutions: Mastery over both ground-up development and upgrading/retrofitting existing plants, which is increasingly important as semiconductor facilities modernise for higher yield.
  • Scalability & Adaptability: Ability to accommodate expansions and changing production needs, a key competitive advantage for fast-growing clients.
