KUALA LUMPUR: Radimax Group Sdn Bhd aims to expand its shipping and engineering businesses, as well as its non-clinical hospital support services to gain more market leadership.

In a statement on Monday, Radimax, formerly known as Realmild (M) Sdn Bhd said it has grown numerous businesses which includes Labuan Shipyard Engineering Sdn Bhd (LSE) and Radicare (M) Sdn Bhd.

Group chief executive officer Datuk Abdul Rahim Mohd Zin said LSE is well positioned to offer a compelling value proposition to the oil companies operating in Sabah and Sarawak due to its strategic location as well as proven technical capabilities.

LSE is mainly involved in engineering and fabrication of oil and gas-related facilities, shipbuilding, ship repair and construction of power barges.

It is also actively involved in the refitting, modernization and scheduled maintenance of Royal Malaysian Navy vessels.

Abdul Rahim said the group also plans to expand Radicare regionally as the group possesses the expertise on integrated facilities management of non-clinical hospital support services

“Another critical component to the Radimax business transformation programme was human capital development,” said Abdul Rahim.

He said various training programmes have been implemented to enhance the technical skills and capabilities as well as improve the productivity of Group’s 2,800-strong workforce nationwide.
