Some companies build products — LOTTE CHEMICAL TITAN builds what products are made from.

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Malaysia’s petrochemical industry was still in its infancy.

Recognising the strategic importance of industrial materials, Titan Chemicals was established to pioneer local production of olefins and polyolefins — materials that would replace traditional resources such as metal, glass, and wood in modern manufacturing.

The challenge was immense. Petrochemical production required heavy capital investment, complex technology, and long-term vision.

Yet the company advanced, constructing integrated plants in Johor that would later become one of the region’s most advanced petrochemical hubs.

The defining transformation came in 2010, when LOTTE Chemical Corporation acquired a controlling stake, integrating the company into a global chemical network and accelerating its expansion.

From a national pioneer to a regional powerhouse, its journey reflects a powerful truth — that control over materials is control over industry itself.

Core Activities include:

• Production of olefins, including ethylene and propylene

• Manufacturing of polyolefins, including polyethylene and polypropylene
