Neurair & Hanugra to build 400MW of AI data centres

Neurair Group has agreed a strategic partnership with Indonesian contractor PT Hanugra to develop more than 400 megawatts of AI-focused data centre capacity across Asia-Pacific, with scope to expand the model into other regions.

The two companies plan to roll out facilities designed for high-density GPU computing, as operators in the region respond to rising demand for AI training and inference services. The alliance links Neurair's liquid cooling and high-density design expertise with Hanugra's track record delivering large-scale data centre construction projects in Asia.

High-density push

The partners aim to address a growing gap between traditional data centre designs and the requirements of modern AI workloads. Many AI clusters now exceed 100 kilowatts per rack. That level of density places pressure on conventional air cooling and legacy power distribution layouts.

New projects under the partnership will integrate AI-focused white-space layouts at the initial design stage. The companies state that this approach avoids retrofitting legacy facilities for GPU clusters. It also seeks to shorten deployment schedules for operators that plan rapid AI infrastructure roll-outs.

Neurair specialises in liquid cooling systems and high-density infrastructure for AI and high-performance computing. Its portfolio includes coolant distribution units, rear-door heat exchangers, direct-to-chip liquid cooling and integrated thermal management systems. The company has worked with hyperscalers, colocation providers and so-called "neocloud" platforms in North America and Latin America.

Hanugra brings experience as a general contractor for mission-critical facilities in Asia-Pacific. The firm delivers design-build projects for hyperscale, colocation and enterprise customers and focuses on complex data centre work in emerging and established markets across the region.

Design from day one

The joint programme will centre on turnkey, AI-ready facilities. These sites will combine construction standards set for mission-critical environments with thermal and electrical infrastructure that supports GPU-intensive computing from initial commissioning.

The partners say this includes reinforced power distribution and white-space architecture that differs from traditional enterprise data centres. The focus is on rack densities above 100 kilowatts where liquid cooling and advanced thermal management become central elements of the build.

Hanugra's Director, Wilson Ng, said the company sees a shift in customer requirements as AI deployments scale. "In two decades of building data centers, we have never compromised on quality or execution," said Wilson Ng, Director at PT Hanugra. "The AI revolution demands a new generation of facilities that most operators aren't equipped to deliver. Our partnership with Neurair ensures we can provide customers with infrastructure that's ready for 100+ kilowatt racks in leading AI clusters from day one-not through costly retrofits, but by design."

Regional focus, global template

The first wave of projects will target Asia-Pacific markets. The region has seen rapid growth in demand for GPU capacity from cloud providers, AI start-ups and large enterprises. Many operators now seek consistent designs that they can replicate across several countries.

Neurair and Hanugra plan to create repeatable design standards and delivery processes that can transfer to other regions. The partners say this will give operators a degree of technical and operational consistency when they expand AI infrastructure beyond a single market.

Janice L. Iwa, CEO at Neurair, said AI is influencing data centre planning worldwide. "AI is fundamentally reshaping how data centers are designed, built, and operated," said Janice L. Iwa, CEO at Neurair. "Traditional approaches simply cannot keep pace with the density, efficiency, and speed requirements of modern AI workloads. By combining Hanugra's exceptional execution capabilities with our liquid cooling and high-density infrastructure expertise, we're creating a partnership that delivers both regional market knowledge and global technical standards-exactly what operators need as they scale AI infrastructure worldwide."

Market backdrop

Industry analysts expect global investment in AI data centre infrastructure to exceed $400 billion over the next four years. Asia-Pacific is forecast as one of the fastest-growing regions within that total.

The market currently faces a shortage of facilities that can support high-density GPU clusters at scale. Many existing sites lack appropriate cooling systems or electrical backbones and would require significant upgrades for AI workloads.

The Neurair-Hanugra partnership responds to this constraint with a combined model. Hanugra focuses on large-scale construction delivery and project execution. Neurair concentrates on advanced thermal management, liquid cooling and high-density electrical design. The partners intend to apply this structure to greenfield builds that are optimised for AI from the outset.

Neurair continues to expand its presence across Madrid, California and Singapore. Hanugra adds the collaboration to a portfolio that already includes some of the most advanced data centre facilities in Asia-Pacific. Both companies state that the partnership forms a platform for multi-region AI infrastructure roll-outs in the coming years.
