Fajar Cables Sdn Bhd began its operations in 1988, initially comprising a single factory lot. A testing facility was set up in 1989, and in 1993 we acquired a neighbouring factory lot. With the additional floor space, we purchased additional machines and equipment in order to increase both our production capacity and product range. The new machines also enabled us to significantly reduce our production lead time.

In 1996, we obtained the MS 140 certification from SIRIM QAS Sdn Bhd, Malaysia's certification, inspection and testing body. The MS 140 certification applies to flexible cables with nominal cross-sectional conductor areas between 0.5mm² and 2.5mm². This was followed by the MS 136 certification in 2000, which applies to single core cables with nominal cross-sectional conductor areas between 1.5mm² and 70mm².

Also in 2000, we obtained the MS ISO 9002:1994 Quality Management System (QMS) certification. This certification recognises Fajar Cables' success in the implementation of a structured management system which helps us to consistently meet customer and regulatory requirements while achieving continual improvement of our processes. In a year's time this would be further upgraded to the MS ISO 9001:2000 certification. As of 2018, our QMS system is compliant with the ISO 9001:2015 certification.
