The future of gloves in our hands

About Us

We started as a single-line operation back in 1988, and now have evolved to a company that has singlehandedly revolutionised glove-making.

Growing Global with Innovation & Quality

Hartalega was the inventor of the world’s first lightweight Nitrile glove in 2002, which caused a demand shift from latex to nitrile gloves all over the globe. Needless to say, we are now the largest producer of nitrile gloves in the world, capable of manufacturing 14 billion gloves a year.

Yet all this would not have been possible without our deep-rooted commitment towards innovation, which has incepted advanced, proprietary manufacturing technologies that is unrivalled to this day.

Hartalega’s continued technological innovations help ensure our gloves are manufactured with equal emphasis on efficiency and quality; a key reason why we are trusted as the OEM manufacturer for some of the world’s biggest brands.

Our workforce of 4,000 people across 6 dedicated manufacturing facilities has also done us proud. Hartalega has gone on to win many prestigious accolades, including recognitions from Forbes Asia, KPMG and Asia Money.
