Kerjasama seperti ini amat penting dalam membina asas kawal selia ke arah ekosistem pembinaan yang lebih moden dan bersedia untuk masa hadapan,” kata XXX, XXX daripada CIDB.
Berbeza daripada penyedia teknologi pembinaan konvensional, V3D Asia dan Nuvah beroperasi sebagai sebuah ekosistem bersepadu yang meliputi keseluruhan rantaian pembangunan. V3D Asia berperanan sebagai cabang teknologi pembinaan yang memberi tumpuan kepada kejuruteraan pencetakan pembinaan 3D serta keupayaan pembuatan tempatan, manakala Nuvah berfungsi sebagai cabang pembangunan hartanah dan komersial yang menumpukan kepada pembangunan projek kediaman dan komersial generasi baharu. Bersama-sama, kedua-dua entiti ini membentuk rantaian bekalan tempatan yang direka untuk menyokong pertumbuhan jangka panjang industri pencetakan pembinaan 3D di Malaysia.
Selain menerajui pembangunan piawaian industri, Nuvah juga sedang membuat persiapan untuk memperkenalkan pembangunan banglo mewah bercetak 3D pertama di Malaysia yang dijadualkan dilancarkan pada suku keempat tahun ini. Terletak di kawasan eksklusif Country Heights Damansara, projek ultra mewah di lereng bukit tersebut kini menerima pendaftaran Penyataan Minat (Expression of Interest, EOI).
Pembangunan tersebut bakal memperkenalkan konsep seni bina “Quiet Luxury” yang menampilkan bentuk organik dan aliran reka bentuk yang diinspirasikan oleh alam semula jadi. Dengan memanfaatkan fleksibiliti yang ditawarkan oleh Teknologi Pencetakan Pembinaan 3D, projek ini meninggalkan reka bentuk konvensional yang bersegi dan menggantikannya dengan struktur monolit melengkung yang bersifat lebih mengalir dan menyatu secara harmoni dengan topografi sekeliling, sekali gus menawarkan gambaran masa depan kediaman mewah yang lebih mampan.
Kerjasama ini dijangka menjadi pemangkin kepada penggunaan Teknologi Pencetakan Konkrit 3D yang lebih meluas di Malaysia. Dengan adanya piawaian industri yang jelas dan diyakini, inisiatif ini berpotensi meningkatkan keyakinan industri terhadap teknologi dan kaedah pembinaan generasi baharu, serta mempercepatkan transformasi sektor pembinaan ke arah amalan yang lebih maju dan mampan.

NEW YORK, US – Media OutReach Newswire – 17 June 2026 – GLM, a fashion and tech accessories brand, today announced the launch of the Essential Clutch – Limited Edition, a slim laptop clutch designed to complement the Microsoft Surface Laptop, 13.8-inch. Available in limited quantities, the piece is equally suited to slim laptops from all manufacturers and continues GLM’s approach of treating tech carry with the same design intent applied to fashion accessories. GLM is a Designed for Microsoft Surface Partner, recognizing products built to meet Microsoft’s standards for fit, protection, and design alongside Surface devices.

The Essential Clutch – Limited Edition is made from cactus leather, a plant-based vegan leather, with 100% recycled fabrics used for lining, straps, and protective padding, consistent with the materials across GLM’s collection. The interior lining, an exclusive Art Deco print, was designed to align with the Microsoft Surface Laptop, 13.8-inch, offering device owners a complementary piece that stands on its own as a considered accessory. As a limited-edition release, the restricted quantities reflect both the seasonal nature of the colorway and the brand’s broader commitment to low-waste production. The clutch is designed to carry necessary technology without bulk, supporting commutes, office environments, evening engagements, and travel days that require consolidation. It can be worn on its own or nested inside a larger tote to distribute weight across bags.
The Essential Clutch joins GLM’s existing range of slim laptop bags, which launched in the U.S. earlier this year. GLM was founded by Candina Weston, who brings more than 25 years of experience across technology, the PC industry, retail, marketing, and operations, including senior leadership roles in structured technology environments and brand-led businesses. This background informs the brand’s focus on real-world professional carry needs: device protection, a slim and structured silhouette, and a design philosophy that treats laptop carry as a daily requirement rather than purely functional.
GLM identifies its target audience as professionals across industries who care about style and whose daily routines involve movement.
“The Essential Clutch – Limited Edition is a natural extension of what GLM is built on,” said founder Candina Weston. “We designed it to sit alongside the devices people already carry, while keeping the same focus on slim, considered design that runs through the rest of the collection.” GLM currently serves customers in the United States and Singapore, with plans to expand into additional international markets within the next 12 months.Hashtag: #GLM
