en.Wedoany.com Reported - Vertiv (NYSE: VRT), a global provider of critical digital infrastructure solutions, officially inaugurated its new manufacturing facility in Senai, Johor, Malaysia, on July 1, 2026. This facility, Vertiv's first manufacturing base in Southeast Asia, aims to meet the rapidly growing demand for power and cooling equipment driven by artificial intelligence and high-density computing infrastructure in Asia.

Covering approximately 21,900 square meters, the new factory will primarily produce, assemble, and test thermal management and power infrastructure required for data center environments. The product range includes liquid cooling distribution units, power management systems, and modular prefabricated data center structures essential for modern AI workloads. The launch of this facility represents a key step in Vertiv's expansion of its Asian manufacturing footprint, serving customers across Southeast Asia, North Asia, Australia, and New Zealand.

According to plans, the factory is expected to create up to 500 technical jobs locally once fully operational in 2027. Paul Churchill, Vice President and General Manager of Vertiv Asia, stated that this move aims to strengthen the company's ability to support regional customers. Analysts note that the establishment of this factory is a strategic move by Vertiv to seize opportunities from AI infrastructure expansion. As AI technology imposes higher demands on data center power and cooling, Vertiv is consolidating its market position by expanding production capacity.
