Every great legacy begins with the turn of a key. For Kiat Lee, that journey started in 1984—a year defined by grit, grease, and a vision to keep the wheels of industry moving. What began as a local hub for used trucks and heavy machinery has evolved into a global leader in automotive recycling and parts exportation, driven by two generations of passion
In the mid-80s, the landscape of transport and construction was changing rapidly. Kiat Lee was founded on a simple, powerful promise: Reliability.
Starting out as a family-run business, we specialized in importing and selling used trucks and machinery. In those early days, a handshake was a contract, and Kiat Lee became synonymous with quality equipment that worked as hard as the people who bought it.
We didn’t just sell machines; we provided the tools that built the infrastructure of our community.
As the world shifted toward a more sustainable, tech-driven economy, so did we. Today, led by the second generation, Kiat Lee has transformed from a import export company into a modern automotive recovery powerhouse.
We recognized that a vehicle’s life should not end at the scrapyard. By bridging Singapore drivers with modern logistics and international demand, we evolved our business to focus on the dismantling and export of local vehicles.
By identifying and reclaiming high-value components that still have miles of life left in them. We reduce industrial waste by ensuring every ounce of metal and every viable part is diverted from landfills and put back into the global supply chain.
While our roots remain firmly planted in our 1984 origins, our reach is now international. Kiat Lee is no longer just a local scrapyard; we are a worldwide exporter of quality automotive parts.
From our facility to ports across the globe, we supply a diverse international clientele with the parts they need to keep their fleets running. Whether it’s an engine heading to Southeast Asia or specialized machinery components destined for the Middle East, our rigorous quality control ensures that the Kiat Lee standard remains consistent across borders.
For more than 40 years, Kiat Lee has remained a family-run business built on integrity, trusted relationships, and genuine technical expertise. With deep-rooted knowledge in cars, trucks, and machinery, we bring experience you can rely on.
Protecting the environment we are using modern processes to meet today’s environmental and efficiency standards.
At Kiat Lee, scrap is never just waste. We see opportunity, value, and the promise of a more sustainable future — one part at a time.
