Stuttgart (Germany) / Kulim (Malaysia), 29 February 2012
The global engineering and construction company M+W Group has received a major
contract from Infineon Technologies for a new semiconductor plant in
Kulim/Malaysia. The turnkey project includes the design and construction not
only of the multi-storey production facility but also of the central utilities
building, a gas farm and other buildings. The gross floor area of the facility
is some 100,000 square meters, which is the equivalent to an area of
15 football pitches.
"We are delighted that Infineon Technologies has once again chosen M+W Group as
their preferred general contractor, this time for the Fab expansion project in
Malaysia. This is a great example of customer satisfaction and our long term
partnership approach with key customers," said M+W Group CEO Jürgen Wild. The
Stuttgart-based engineering and construction company already built the first
semiconductor plant in Kulim in Malaysia for Infineon alongside the Infineon
plant in Dresden, Germany.
The new plant is being set up right beside the existing Infineon factory. It
will enable Infineon to further expand its production capacities for the so-
called power semiconductors, specially designed for the energy-efficient control
of high, electric currents. They are used for instance to drive electric motors
in cars, highspeed trains and other industrial environments.
