What is the difference between a detached, semi-D, and cluster factory?

A detached factory stands alone on its own land title with no shared walls — maximum operational flexibility. A semi-detached (semi-D) factory shares one party wall with an adjacent unit. A cluster factory is part of a group of 4–8 units sharing a common access road and sometimes utilities infrastructure. Each type has different price points and use-case fit.

How do I verify the power supply before renting a factory?

Ask the agent or owner for the TNB account statement showing the tariff category and maximum demand. For vacant units, ask for the incoming supply rating from the sub-station. If in doubt, engage a licensed electrical contractor (wireman) to assess the incoming supply and advise on upgrade feasibility before signing.

What government licences do I need to operate a factory in Petaling Jaya?

You'll need a business registration (SSM), a local authority business licence (Lesen Perniagaan), and depending on your industry, approvals from MIDA (manufacturing licence for RM 2.5M+ capital investment), DOSH (for hazardous machinery or processes), and DOE (for scheduled waste generators). Our agents can advise on the relevant authority for your specific activity.
