From trading of water treatment chemicals, Hyflux is now a leading global environmental solutions provider.  It is building the world’s largest seawater desalination plant in Algeria.  It also currently houses Asia’s largest commercial R&D centre for membranes and materials technology outside Japan. Hyflux has some 150 researchers working in Singapore, and over 50 researchers working in China and Europe.

Besides setting up their global HQ in Singapore, the company is also building a new global R&D centre and a new membrane manufacturing centre, with total investments amounting to some S$120 million over the next 3 years.  These new facilities will enable the company to meet the rising demand for its membranes and systems as it secures more large-scale projects.
