Welcome and thank you again for visiting our website which provides you with the latest updated information on our products, investor relations information and others.

Top Glove Business Direction is “To Consistently Produce High Quality Gloves with Efficient Low Cost”.

There are a few factors that leads to our success, one of the most important factors is reflected in our business rules which is:

1) Do not lose our shareholders' money;
2) Do not lose our health;
3) Do not lose our temper; and
4) Do not lose our customers.

Our vision is strived to be the world’s leading manufacturer with excellent quality glove products and services that enrich and protect human lives. Glove being a first line barrier protection is an important item to ensure that the protection of the users in carrying out his/her daily work in the healthcare industries. With the recent declaration by World Health Organization (WHO) on the pandemic of A(H1N1) influenza on June 11, 2009, we have to enhance our efficiency and product quality to meet the demand that is growing, besides that its our responsibility and roles that we played to control the spread of the influenza by ensuring a good quality glove and to bring a sense of security to the healthcare users worldwide.
We export our gloves to more than 180 countries worldwide with our gloves production capacity of 31.5 billion pieces per year. With our current global market share which is at 22 %, this encouraged us to work harder and put in more effort through strategic planning and distribution of responsibilities to all departments in the company. As such it is important that we are always ahead in all areas and calculated steps are taken to anticipate the directions, growth and hurdles of the glove industry especially in this globally challenging era.

With the current world financial situation, we will have to work harder to ensure that our stakeholders are fully rewarded for their trust, support and confidence in the company and its business and growth direction. To my fellow colleagues, staff and workers, this challenging time is where we recuperate and solidify our weak points, strengthen and consolidate our strong points to ensure a much stronger future when we emerge from these dark clouds. It is like a situation whereby we take this chance to further improve product quality and management efficiency to face future challenges. With the improvement and stringent healthcare standards around the world, the demand and usage of gloves in protecting human is a continuous effort. We hope that as a glove manufacturer, we are able to contribute in this area to upkeep the standard and protection of human lives. The demand for our products is encouraging especially for countries that have raised their healthcare standards and requirements. More and more countries are beginning to realize the importance of basic healthcare policies which is very important to everyone, what more with the current healthcare situation throughout the world.

At Top Glove, we will continue to take these matters as challenge that will benefit the society at large and we must excel in all areas to attain and achieve the common goal that will positively contribute to the success of the company, nation and society. One of the areas that we have always given great concern is on the roles that we played to ensure that the society and environment benefit and share our success, with this in mind, on the 14th June 2009 which coincide with the 17th Annual Dinner for Top Glove, our business associates, directors, management, staff and workers witnessed the official launching of Top Glove Foundation. It is also on our agenda to be concern and caring for the surroundings and with the Foundation established, we have achieved another level to play a greater and bigger roles in our Corporate Social Responsibility to ensure that the environment, communities and educational related funding are well taken care of.

I would also like to take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation to our valued customers worldwide, stakeholders, business associates and the respective Governments where our offices and factories are located and people who have shown strong supports and believe in our business journey. In conclusion, please allow me to extend my heartiest gratitude to the Board of Directors, management team, staff and workers for their efforts and hard work in making Top Glove a successful and the largest rubber glove manufacturer in the world. Keep up the good and effective job! The company success is your success as well as the nation success.

Once again, thank you.
