Turbomed Asia Expands to Strengthen Sri Lanka’s Role as a Regional Maritime Hub
Sri Lanka’s port network is growing fast. Colombo is expanding capacity with new terminals, Hambantota continues to scale, Trincomalee is attracting investment as a strategic energy location, and Galle remains an important point for regional traffic.
These developments are creating new opportunities for high-quality, fast, and reliable maintenance services.
Our 2025–2027 expansion plan
- Investing in people
We are increasing our local workforce and training more engineers and technicians to meet the rising demand for marine and industrial maintenance services in the region.
- Larger, more advanced workshop
Our expansion includes new precision equipment and specialized machinery to handle larger and more complex turbocharger and rotating equipment. This allows us to serve a wider range of customers faster and more efficiently.
- Rapid response across the region
Our Colombo base will act as a regional hub for quick deployment to surrounding countries including India, Maldives and Bangladesh.This strengthens Sri Lanka’s position as the preferred service center for vessels transiting the region.
- Boosting national competitiveness
By increasing capacity and speed of service locally, we help reduce dependency on overseas workshops. This supports the national economy, attracts more vessels to call at Sri Lankan ports, and creates sustainable employment opportunities.
Why this matters
An efficient maritime services ecosystem supports port throughput, increases operational attractiveness for international trade routes, and contributes directly to national growth. Turbomed Asia is investing to be a central part of this ecosystem.

Turbomed Asia Showcases Portable Dynamic Balancing Innovation at Techno Sri Lanka 2023
Techno Sri Lanka 2023 marked a special milestone for our team. At the country’s biggest engineering and technology exhibition, we proudly introduced our Portable Dynamic Balancing Machine — designed to deliver faster, more precise, and more cost-effective maintenance solutions directly on site.
Why this matters
When rotating components in turbochargers and industrial equipment lose balance, it can lead to unwanted vibration, equipment stress, and extended downtime. Traditionally, these problems required removing parts and sending them to workshops — a costly and time-consuming process.
With our portable balancing solution, we can now carry out accurate, on-site interventions. This means less downtime, greater operational safety, and lower costs for ship operators, power plants, and industrial facilities.
Strong local reception
The response at Techno Sri Lanka 2023 was overwhelmingly positive.
- Engineering students, local companies, and professionals showed high interest in the technology.
- Visitors emphasized how having this capability in Sri Lanka strengthens the country’s self-reliance.
- The machine’s adaptability and fast deployment were particularly praised.
Value to local industries and customers
We’ve already implemented this technology for major Sri Lankan customers, improving their turnaround times and equipment reliability. This is another step toward building advanced maintenance capacity inside Sri Lanka rather than relying on overseas services.
Looking ahead
This innovation is only the beginning. We are investing in more local expertise, new technology, and additional capabilities to better serve the growing marine and industrial base in the country.
