The Government Land Sales program released an industrial site near Tuas Link Close in late 2023. The tender for the land closed on February 27, 2024. By March 2024, Soon Hock Land had won the land bid and bought the site for around S$89 million. The site is on a 30-year lease and roughly 27,562 square meters in size and had a plot ratio of 2.5. The project will take 84 months to complete, which means that it may be done by early 2031.
Soon Hock Land, which is part of the Soon Hock Group and is recognized for its industrial projects, is continually adding to its portfolio of industrial real estate. It started with Tuas Cove in 2011 and currently owns more than 500 strata-titled industrial properties around Singapore.
About Tuas Link Close Site

This location is close to public transportation, which is vital in an industrial area and provide convenience from suppliers, consumers and also internal employees.
The Tuas area is one of Singapore’s main industrial centers, and it is easy to get there via MRT. It has the developing Tuas Mega Port, large industrial and engineering enterprises, and convenient access to major highways.

The Developer’s Vision and Design Features
The new development by Soon Hock Land, Skye @ Tuas, is built to satisfy the demands of industries now and in the future. This is an industrial project in a B2 zone with ramp-up access, so trucks can drive right up to the doors of the units to load and unload. That arrangement makes it easier to use forklifts, speeds up production, and cuts down on needless manual handling.
The units don’t have any columns, and the ceilings are high, which makes it possible to have flexible layouts, vertical storage, and the use of overhead cranes or gantries. The air flows more smoothly as well. These characteristics are useful for a lot of different types of users, including those who work with metal, support maritime operations, service vehicles, manufacture things, or run automated assembly lines. There is also planned for the use of smart manufacturing, with enough power supply and infrastructure for safety, ventilation, and following the rules.
Hock Land’s project Skye at Tuas Industrial is a clear attempt to meet the demands of contemporary industry via careful design, connection, and strategic location. Skye @ Tuas is in a great location to become a popular industrial development for a wide range of businesses. It will be fully built by 2031 and will have easy access to MRT, roads, and port facilities. It’s built to make logistics easy, operations scalable, and long-term value in a competitive industrial environment.
