Top Glove is the world's largest manufacturer of rubber gloves, producing more than 90 billion gloves per year from factories in Malaysia, Thailand, China, and Vietnam. The company was founded in 1991 by Lim Wee Chai, who started with a single factory and one production line in Selangor; it is now headquartered in Shah Alam, Malaysia, employs about 20,000 people, and exports to more than 195 countries.
The company's product range spans examination gloves, surgical gloves, and specialty gloves for cleanrooms, food handling, and industrial use, manufactured from natural rubber, nitrile, and vinyl. Top Glove's vertically integrated operations include its own rubber plantations, latex processing, and a dedicated glove-dipping and packaging network, giving it cost advantages that have made it the price benchmark in the industry.
For procurement teams in healthcare, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and industrial safety, Top Glove is the default scale supplier for disposable gloves, with rigorous quality certifications including ISO 13485, FDA clearance, and CE marking.
