Cast of part of the sculpture for the free standing wall on the left of the main

entrance

uminium framed windows are of gold anodised aluminium, while the floor surfaces at the main entrance and pool surrounds are of precast ter- razzo tiles made of light coloured marble chips and white cement.

A large sculpture has been com- missioned and is being executed in resin bronze depicting aspects of the natural rubber industry related to its origins and the contemporary scene. This high relief sculpture will be mounted on a free standing wall im- mediately to the left side of the main entrance steps. A mural is being commissioned for a feature wall in the lift foyer.

The fully air-conditioned 50,000 sq. ft. Bangunan Getah Asli took just over a year to complete.
