The Future of Car Parks
MHE builds automated carpark system for new hotel in Singapore
MHE, the material handling division of Jebsen & Jessen Technology, has been appointed to design, supply, and install an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) car park system for UOL Group’s new 250-key hotel in the middle of Orchard Road, Singapore.
As part of Singapore’s new initiative to encourage the redevelopment of older buildings in strategic areas into new, bold and innovative developments, Faber House, a 12-storey commercial building, has been rezoned for hotel use. It will take on a new lease of life as an 18-storey hotel development with a bank, F&B outlets, and an urban veranda. With a plot size of just 11,025 sqm, UOL Group chose MHE to develop an energy-efficient, high-tech automated car parking system that maximises the limited prime space allocated for cars.
The MHE team will be building and installing the entire AGV system which seamlessly manages and stores up to 21 sedan cars for future users of the building. The project is underway and expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2026.
