Rianlon to build new additive R&D and production facility in Malaysia

Rianlon Corporation (利安隆), a leading global provider of “anti-ageing” additives and application technologies for polymer materials based in Tianjin, China, has announced plans to establish a wholly owned subsidiary in Singapore, which will oversee the investment and construction of a new R&D and production base in Malaysia.

This move aligns with Rianlon’s long-term international expansion strategy and its commitment to strengthening global supply chains. The new Malaysia facility will focus on the research and manufacturing of polymer anti-ageing additives and functional additives for lubricants, reinforcing the company’s role as a key supplier to the polymeric material industries worldwide.

The total investment for the Malaysian R&D and production base is set at USD300 million, covering land acquisition and construction costs. The project will be executed in phases, adapting to market demands and global business developments.

A milestone in Rianlon’s global expansion

Rianlon has solidified its reputation as a key innovator in polymer stabilisation solutions. The company, which trades on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (Stock Code: 300596), has steadily expanded its production footprint and acquired strategic assets to enhance its global reach.

One of the company’s major milestones was the acquisition of Kangtai several years ago, which bolstered Rianlon’s capacity in the anti-ageing additives sector. With six production facilities worldwide, including locations in China, Europe, and North America, Rianlon continues to increase its manufacturing capabilities in line with customer demand.

The new Malaysian facility represents the next phase in this expansion, offering enhanced regional supply chain efficiency and ensuring greater proximity to key customers in Southeast Asia and beyond.

Strengthening innovation and logistics

Rianlon operates a state-of-the-art research institute in Tianjin, which integrates advancements in fundamental chemistry, polymer additives production, and application technologies. The company adheres to strict ISO 9001 quality management standards, ensuring consistent product performance.

Additionally, Rianlon’s extensive global logistics network includes warehouses in Antwerp, Belgium, Ohio, U.S.A., Singapore, Thailand, Japan, and multiple locations in China, supporting its 72-hour global delivery initiative.
