Malaysian Sheet Glass Sdn Bhd was established in 1971. While NSG had exported technology to the Asian countries, its first direct market entry was in November 1971 with the establishment of Malaysia Sheet Glass Sdn. Bhd. NSG’s initial stake of 44% was later increased to 100%, making it a wholly-owned subsidiary with two float furnaces in operation. As one of the major glass plants in Southeast Asia, Malaysia Sheet Glass is playing an important role in the development of ASEAN countries.
