en.Wedoany.com Reported - Singapore Post (SingPost) has officially launched an automated sorting hub costing S$30 million (approximately £17.55 million), while simultaneously rolling out the SingPost@MyBlock service islandwide. SingPost first announced the investment plan for the automated sorting hub in March 2025, which includes two new automated systems: the 3D Sorter and the Intelligent Flexi Sorter (IFS).

With these new systems in operation, SingPost's small and medium parcel processing capacity has tripled from 100,000 parcels per day to 300,000 parcels per day. Combined with existing large parcel processing capacity, the total daily throughput of the Regional eCommerce Logistics Hub has reached 400,000 parcels per day. Previously, SingPost sorted parcels at the SingPost Centre in Paya Lebar, while larger parcels were handled at the Regional eCommerce Logistics Hub in Tampines. This dual-site workflow required continuous cross-island trucking, increasing transit time, operational costs, and network complexity.

Additionally, following a successful pilot, SingPost will officially expand its SingPost@MyBlock service islandwide by September this year. The service will be rolled out in three phases by September 30, allowing residents to deposit letters and small parcels directly into designated mailbox clusters in their HDB flats or residential buildings. SingPost CEO Mark Chong stated that this centralized automated parcel hub unlocks an improved operating model, enabling the company to move towards a highly flexible network that scales with market demand. Chong noted that these measures will serve as a means to reduce service costs by over 10%.
