Hor Kew is a building construction group providing an integrated range of
construction-related products and services.
After being awarded its first main building contract in 1983, the Group
subsequently embarked on its first property development project in 1986, which
marked the start to the completion of several others.
In 1990, in view of allowing for vertical integration of the Group’s
operations, the Group started the business of manufacturing and supply of
prestressed and precast reinforced concrete building components as well as
prefinished architectural precast components, and progressed further to venture
into the manufacturing and supply of prefabricated architectural metal
components.
