HPMT INDUSTRIES SDN. BHD.

HPMT INDUSTRIES SDN. BHD. stands as one of Malaysia’s quiet enablers of global manufacturing — a company whose products are rarely seen, yet essential in shaping the world’s most precise components.

Operating at the cutting edge of machining technology, the company has built its reputation on precision, consistency, and engineering excellence, serving industries that demand nothing less than perfection.

Its journey reflects a powerful truth — that the most advanced industries are built not only on innovation, but on the tools that make precision possible.

Founder / Origin:

Originated from Herroz Sdn. Bhd., forming the foundation of the business ecosystem.

Current Leadership:

Management team under HPMT Holdings Berhad

The leadership continues to drive the company through engineering excellence, global expansion, and continuous innovation in tooling technology.

Some companies build products — HPMT builds the tools that shape them.

The story began in 1978, when the business first operated as a distributor of cutting tools, supplying precision equipment to industrial users at a time when Malaysia’s manufacturing sector was still developing.

What started as distribution gradually evolved into deep technical understanding — of materials, machining behaviour, and the growing demand for higher precision.

By 1996, HPMT INDUSTRIES SDN. BHD. was formally established, marking a decisive shift from trading to manufacturing. The company no longer supplied tools — it began creating them.

With in-house engineering, research, and production capabilities, it developed its own line of high-performance cutting tools, positioning itself as a creator of industrial capability rather than a middleman.

As global industries demanded tighter tolerances and higher efficiency, HPMT expanded beyond Malaysia, building a presence across Asia and Europe, serving sectors such as aerospace, semiconductors, automotive, and energy.

From supplying tools to engineering precision, its journey reflects a powerful truth — that mastery begins at the smallest edge.

Core Activities include:

• Manufacturing of solid carbide cutting tools

• Customised tool design and engineering solutions

• Research and development in machining technology

• Global distribution through subsidiaries and partners

The company’s operational model focuses on precision manufacturing, technical engineering support, product innovation, and global distribution. By combining in-house production capabilities with specialised tooling expertise, HPMT INDUSTRIES SDN. BHD. positions itself as both a manufacturer and an engineering solutions provider for advanced industries.

Notable Offerings Include:

• Solid carbide endmills for high-precision milling

• Industrial drills for advanced machining applications
