Optimising operational efficiency

As an essential pillar of our success, Hartalega’s progressive manufacturing systems are a class above in terms of speed, accuracy and cost effectiveness, while our integrated supply chain improves automation, communication and self-monitoring without the need for human intervention. By ensuring that we invest strategically in a solid infrastructure that progresses with evolving requirements, we are able to continually sharpen our competitive edge, further strengthening our position as innovative leaders in our field.

Gloves Produced per hour

45,000

Built to support global market demands

As a forward-looking company, long before our competitors were thinking about the long-term need for capacity expansion, we conceptualised our Next Generation Integrated Glove Manufacturing Complex (NGC) in Sepang, Selangor. Apart from NGC, we are also based in Bestari Jaya, Selangor.

With the NGC as an iconic glove manufacturing complex, we have been successful in leapfrogging the glove sector from one that is regarded as low-tech and labour intensive, to one that is acclaimed as high-tech and innovation driven with a skilled workforce. To this end, all of our production facilities are purpose-built to deliver efficiency, quality, flexibility and sustainability.

Given the tremendous global demand for our gloves, we see vast opportunities for growth in the industry. Our state-of-the-art plants enable us to tap into these prospects to drive Hartalega to greater heights.

We owe our high-volume production lines to our proprietary custom-built double former systems that yield greater output. Our entire production process is closely monitored with real-time updates both on-site and remotely. This advanced monitoring system aids in the identification of any potential issues for effective rectification in order to prevent downtime.

To match our high-speed production lines, we required a new method to strip gloves off the moulds swiftly and safely. In 1995, we created the industry's first automated mechanical stripping system, which removed both Latex and Nitrile gloves efficiently. To this day, we utilise this proprietary system, which can remove more than 45,000 gloves per hour – a performance that remains unrivalled.

Our highly automated manufacturing process, from glove production to packaging and warehousing, not only ensures speed and efficiency, it also helps minimise the risk of contamination through the implementation of zero human contact. With the use of information systems such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), our product movements are easily monitored for on-time delivery.

Our biomass energy plant is the first in the industry to be registered with the United Nations Framework on Climate Change (Kyoto Protocol) as a carbon neutral and environmentally-friendly plant. It uses plantation waste such as oil palm empty fruit bunch fibres to supply heat that is utilised as part of our production process. Our foresight to employ this heating system allows us to conserve the environment while improving cost efficiency.

In line with Hartalega's aim to continually offer products that meet the evolving demands of the global market, our process simulator precisely simulates our glove manufacturing process over a wide range of parameters. This fully automated system allows for accurate repeatability, which enables our R&D team to test new ideas with ease and efficiency.

Goodpac™ technology

Goodpac™ Technology:
Streamlining the packaging process

Goodpac™ is a cost- saving single glove dispensing technology, which prevents glove wastage and contamination. A Digital Quality System (DQS) scans and detects even the most miniscule of defects. Gloves with defects are removed automatically, eliminating the human error element commonly encountered through conventional inspection and sorting methods. With DQS, each and every glove that leaves the factory is 100% free of visual defects.

Goodpac™ technology benefits:
Cost-effective:
Cost-effective: Prevents glove wastage
Easy:
Easy: Simple to use with no special installation or modification from the end user
Uniform:
Uniform: Each final product is neatly packed
Quality control:
Quality control: Free of visual defects
