In 1999, the Malaysian Government embarked on the development of some new container docks at Tanjung Pelepas Port (Port Johor), located at the southern tip of Malaysia.  This was an initiative for a strategically positioned port location to actively compete with other established south-east Asian ports, particularly Singapore and Hong Kong.

The ACO DRAIN S System (an earlier model to PowerDrain, ACO’s current heavy duty trench drain) met all the demands of the project. A total of 1,000 metres was installed in the project and will continue to perform for many years to come
