11 Aug 2026, 11:35 PM	SoyaCincau	2.5	Inokom unveils new RM300 million facility, helps double annual painting capacity Inokom (Sime Motors' assembly subsidiary) launched a RM300 million Paint Shop 3 facility in Kulim, Kedah, doubling annual painted vehicle body capacity from 50,000 to 100,000 units. The facility features 32 painting/sealant robots, a fully automated PTED line, a Cartridge Bell System enabling sub-10-second colour changes across 27 variants, and a three-coat one-bake process that cuts CO2 emissions by ~60%. Why: This is industrial manufacturing news with minimal direct impact on software developers, AI/ML practitioners, or SaaS founders. The only tangential angle is that Malaysia's automotive manufacturing base is scaling automation capacity, which could create opportunities for local IoT/industrial-software vendors or robotics integrators serving the Kulim corridor — but the article itself does not discuss software, data, or digital services. malaysia-manufacturing industrial-automation kulim
