Nuklear Malaysia, the national nuclear agency, plays a vital role in democratising access to this advanced technology, directly supporting the government’s SME Masterplan and fostering industrial diversification. Nuklear Malaysia’s irradiation facility provides SMEs like Wonderful Ebeam Cable with access to cutting-edge technology without the substantial capital investment required for in-house equipment. This shared resource model enables these companies to enhance their product quality and competitiveness, allowing them to penetrate and thrive in the highly competitive global automotive market. By providing the means to produce high-quality, radiation-processed components, Malaysia is not only bolstering its domestic automotive sector but also attracting foreign investment and expanding its role as a key player in the regional automotive supply chain. This access to advanced nuclear technology is crucial for SMEs to compete in global markets and contribute to Malaysia’s economic growth. Nuklear Malaysia has benefited from IAEA technical cooperation projects, turning global expertise into local expertise.
