Since 1994, the P(M) Group had synchronised with the STYRENIC BUSINESS STRATEGY of the Idemitsu Group and is playing an increasingly important role in the regional PS trade.
Besides natural resins, P(M)`s subsidiary, Poly-Star Compounds Sdn Bhd is providing compounding and colouring services for flame retardent grades to meet specific safety and quality requirements of electrical home appliances and IT products for the international market.
