Singapore, 26 February 2018 – ST Kinetics today announced that it signed a collaboration agreement with PBA Group, a leading automation component-product supplier and system integrator, to pursue and undertake new robotics and automation projects in industrial and logistics automation in Singapore and Southeast Asia.
Combining ST Kinetics’ robotics and autonomous capabilities and PBA’s expertise in industrial automation, the partnership will offer innovative solutions to meet the growing needs of customers in logistics automation.

ST Kinetics continues to scale up our robotics capabilities, especially since the acquisition of Aethon, a US based robotics company, in 2017, and further expanding our footprint to the industrial and logistics sector in Singapore.”
The agreement was signed by Mr William Lee, Senior Vice President, Logistics Automation, ST Kinetics and Mr Derrick Yap, CEO of PBA, in the presence of Mr Chan Chun Sing, Minister in Prime Minister’s Office; Dr Lee Shiang Long, President of ST Kinetics and Mr Tony Yap, Chairman of PBA.
