EOS has opened a new facility in Singapore to handle the manufacturing, integration, and testing of laser systems. This move shows EOS’s dedication to growing and developing its business in the global and regional defence markets.
The new hub will help customers in Singapore and nearby areas, allowing EOS to produce more products, improve its supply chain, and respond faster to the needs of regional customers. This will help EOS meet growing demand in the defence sector.
EOS has already signed contracts to export the world’s first 100 kW-class laser weapon system to the Netherlands. The company also has agreements with South Korea to manufacture and ship these laser systems.
These important projects will be supported by the new Singapore facility, helping EOS deliver on these contracts more effectively and efficiently.
According to coherent market insights, the Global Manufacturing Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.9% during 2025 to 2032. Currently, the market is at USD 14.85 Tn in 2025 and is expected to be around USD 20.76 Tn by 2032. The manufacturing market is experiencing several key trends, including the increasing adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, and the Internet of Things (IoT). These technologies are driving automation, increasing efficiency, and making possible more flexible and customizable production processes.
“The Singapore facility will operate as EOS’ centre of excellence in laser technology innovation, supporting multiple international laser projects,” said Andreas Schwer, CEO at EOS. “As demand grows, EOS expects future expansion to increasingly involve localised production and integration, driven by customer requirements for sovereignty and long-term control of capability development,” Schwer added. According to a press statement, they “integrate modern, layered air defence architectures, providing a precise and scalable response with low cost per engagement, effectively unlimited ammunition and full directional coverage, including vertical engagement”.
