Company Profile
Higher Further Together
At Straits Construction, we take pride in creating long-term relationships with our business partners, our employees, and our community.
Starting small in 1969, our dedication to our work saw us gaining bigger projects. Our first breakthrough came when Straits Construction was awarded our first Housing and Development Board (HDB) project at Serangoon Avenue 4 in 1982. With sights set high but feet firmly planted on the ground, the passionate builder soon steered the company on an inspiring journey as the trusted partner of the HDB. For more than four decades, we played a major role in transforming Singapore’s urban landscape.
Thanks to our dedicated partners, employees, and the customers we serve, Straits Construction is an industry leader and an award-winning building construction company. A company does not succeed by resting on its laurels; we are constantly refining our capabilities and processes to ensure that our company remains relevant in changing times.
Boldly heading into the future
Today, we are on a new journey of growth. Our facility at Tuas South – TOOLBOX, a place dedicated to enhancing productivity – will help us develop more efficient and sustainable building solutions. Our wholly owned subsidiary, Greyform Pte Ltd, who operates Singapore’s second Integrated Construction and Prefabrication Hub (ICPH) will make Straits Construction a significant supplier of precast concrete for public and private sector projects.
For us, continued growth and development is of paramount importance. Success is not just about how much we’ve grown, it’s about enabling others to grow with us. We are committed to growing long-term value for our stakeholders and the communities we serve.
After all, our mission is Creating and Building Environments Where People Thrive.
We Enliven Communities
As Straits Construction, we build communities that are sustainable and liveable. With our building experience and expertise, we feel a deep sense of responsibility to the people we work with, to the society we live in, and to those who need a helping hand. We want to do our part to enliven communities, and to help uplift the lives of those in need.
Safety & Health
We value our workers, their welfare and well-being. It is our mandate to help protect and preserve the safety and health of our workers. We aim for zero accidents. Our WSHE goal is to prevent any accidents from happening and putting safety and health of our workforce at the forefront.
Environment
Lush green spaces, well-designed landscapes, and innovations in natural resource conservation such as water recycling for watering of plants are common features found in our projects. We help our staff go green with vegetable farming opportunities and use of excess construction materials to build recreational facilities like the multi-purpose court and gym facilities.
Community
Our hearts are closest to the disadvantaged in the community, especially the children. Touched by the joys of interacting with the young who have chronic diseases and life-threatening illnesses at Club Rainbow, our staff volunteer their time and talents to bring cheer to the children.
