Towards 50,000 Units
Affordable Homes By 2028

In support of the Government’s effort to make affordable home ownership a reality for all individuals and families in the country, Scientex’s property division has targeted to deliver 50,000 units of affordable homes by 2028.

To date, Scientex’s property division has delivered nearly 39,625 affordable homes priced below RM500,000 nationwide, of which some 71% are priced below RM300,000. And in line with the Vision 2028- 50,000 units of affordable homes, the property division has put in place various projects within 3 geographical regions in the country.

Scientex’s Property Division was first incepted in 1995 in Pasir Gudang with the vision of providing affordable yet quality homes to house buyers. We recognise that affordable home ownership remains a challenge to the lower to middle income buyers due to escalating selling prices and scarcity of reasonably priced land banks for development. Accordingly, and to meet the ever growing demand for affordable homes for this category of homebuyers, our business model is to build more affordable homes at reasonable prices to cater to the demand from this group of buyers.

Our Market Presence

Over the last two decades, our Property Division has steadily expanded its footprint northwards from Johor through to Melaka, Negeri Sembilan, Selangor, Perak, Penang and Kedah to provide Malaysians with access to affordable homes.

To-date, Scientex marked our opening move into overseas property markets with our first joint venture project in Bangkok,Thailand and second joint venture in Jakarta, Indonesia.

Scientex is expanding its footprint in the Northern Region with the acquisition of 161.6 acres of freehold land in Sungai Petani, Kedah. This strategic move aligns with Scientex’s vision to provide affordable yet quality homes for Malaysians nationwide. The development features a vibrant mix of residential and commercial properties, ensuring a balanced and thriving community for families, professionals, and businesses alike.

Situated in a prime location with excellent connectivity, Scientex Sungai Petani offers convenient access to the North-South Expressway, Sungai Petani Selatan Toll Plaza, and Sungai Petani Utara Toll Plaza. Residents will also enjoy close proximity to essential amenities such as Mydin Sungai Petani, Amanjaya Mall, The Carnival Waterpark, UTC Sungai Petani, Regent International School, and Sultan Abdul Halim Hospital. This thoughtful placement provides unparalleled convenience and enhances the overall living experience.

Building on the success of Scientex Sungai Petani, Scientex has acquired an additional 228 acres of freehold land for a new township, Scientex Sungai Petani 2, located just 10 km from the existing development. This expansion will offer improved connectivity to the expressway and even greater access to amenities, furthering Scientex’s mission to deliver affordable quality homes in Kedah. Residents can look forward to modern, well-planned communities designed to support sustainable growth and a brighter future.

  Scientex has marked our first foray into the Northern Region – Penang, strategically located in Tasek Gelugor within the Seberang Perai Utara district.

  Building on the success of Tasek Gelugor, we continue to expand in Penang with the acquisition of 343 acres of freehold land in Sungai Dua, also within the Seberang Perai Utara District.

Perak is located in the Northern region of Malaysia where Scientex has extended its geographical footprint in 2016.

The development projects in Ipoh kicked off in 2017 offering a wide range of affordable houses and condominium to cater home owners and investors under various projects known as Scientex Klebang, Scientex Meru, Scientex Meru 2 and 3. With proven record of completing more than 1,357 units of houses and condominium of our launched project, we continue to receive positive response from the market in Ipoh, more affordable homes are in the pipeline to be launched in due course.

In 2017, we embarked on an expansion journey, extending our presence to the central region of Selangor, the most urbanized and populous state in Malaysia. Our first milestone was the acquisition of a 65-acre piece of land in Rawang, marking the beginning of a mixed development project comprising affordable freehold landed residential and stratified properties.

The success of our venture in Rawang led us to further expand our development in the area. Towards the end of 2019, we acquired an additional 208 acres of freehold land in Kundang Jaya. The affordability of Scientex Kundang Jaya proved to be a significant draw, as evidenced by the impressive take-up rate following its first launch in October 2020.

With a commitment to strengthening our presence in Selangor, we made yet another notable acquisition in September 2020. This time, we acquired approximately 138.6 acres of freehold land in the district of Hulu Langat, strategically located in close proximity to Cheras and Ampang. The forthcoming Scientex Cheras development will offer an affordable sanctuary right next to Kuala Lumpur city.

Building upon our successful track record in Rawang and Kundang Jaya, we recently acquired 250 acres of freehold land in Jenjarom, adjacent to the Telok Panglima toll. Scientex Jenjarom development will continue to contribute to the creation of an affordable residential township for the local community and its surrounding areas.

As the demand for affordable houses in Peninsular Malaysia keeps growing, Scientex’s objective is in tandem with the Government’s initiatives to make home ownership a reality for more Malaysians.

Buoyed by the great success at Scientex Durian Tunggal, we further expanded our existing land bank by acquiring another piece of freehold land namely Scientex Durian Tunggal 2, sprawling across 208.9 acres fronting to the existing land bank. The close proximity between both existing and proposed Durian Tunggal 2 development will enable us to tap on operational efficiencies and economies of scale to build more affordable homes in the region.
