Sulzer’s officials in their compound after a meeting…

Sulzer has signed an agreement with JTC Corporation, the master planner and developer of Singapore’s industrial infrastructure, to build and operate a new research center for its separation technology solutions.

The new facility will be located at the Jurong Innovation District’s CleanTech Park, Singapore’s first eco-business park specifically designed to support clean and sustainable manufacturing and urban solutions. Sulzer will focus its research activities on chemical separation processes for circular operations such as polymer recycling and bio-based fuel and polymer production.

Sulzer and JTC Corporation signed a tenancy agreement last week at the site location in CleanTech Park to mark the start of construction. Designed as a self-sustaining ecosystem, CleanTech Park supports the growth of clean technologies and advanced manufacturing by offering large-scale ‘living laboratories’ to test new solutions in real-world conditions. The new Sulzer Chemtech facility will focus on driving development of innovative separation solutions for customer applications in the Asia Pacific region. The test center will start commissioning in Q4/2023 and will be fully operational in Q2/2024.

Commenting on the development, Executive Chairwoman of Sulzer Suzanne Thoma said, “This investment in a new research and development center for Asia Pacific is a significant expansion to Sulzer’s global footprint and supports our strategic goals of progress, and the development of sustainable solutions. It also shows our commitment to innovation through continuous, significant spending in R&D.”
