Malaysia
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia - Senior plc ("Senior"), an international
manufacturer of high technology components and systems, announced
today the opening of its new 180,000 square feet Aerospace
manufacturing facility at the Malaysia International Aerospace
Centre near Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The new facility complements
Senior Aerospace UPECA's existing facility and has been established
as a direct consequence of Senior's continued success in winning
content on key Airbus and Boeing growth platforms.
The facility was developed on a build-to-lease basis by Axis
Real Estate Investment Trust in partnership with Malaysia Airports
Holdings Berhad. The new facility will house highly skilled
engineering and technical employees and boast state-of-the-art
equipment, such as large 5-axis CNC machines. A key differentiating
feature of this new facility is the comprehensive special process
and non-destructive testing capabilities. With the breadth of these
new capabilities, the new facility will provide increased options
for Senior Aerospace's customers as well as providing capacity to
support future growth.

Senior's commitment to the long-term success of our customers,
suppliers and employees in Asia. With the ease of doing business,
critical infrastructure and access to a well-educated and qualified
labour pool, Malaysia offers a business-friendly and cost
competitive environment. We are delighted to announce the opening
of this new facility which will further enhance our capabilities in
