Heng Hiap Industries: The Ocean’s The Limit For Recycled Plastics

Collecting and recycling OBP in Malaysia's coastal areas

Heng Hiap Industries (HHI) stands out in Malaysia's fragmented recycling industry for manufacturing and customising superior recycled resins under its own Plashaus and Plashaus Ocean brands for various finished products.

HHI can customise superior plastic resins for finished products such as fast-moving consumer goods, packaging materials, gifts, furniture, toys, home appliances, shoes and apparel.

The plastic resins are customised recycled resin (rPP, rHDPE, rLDPE, rLLDPE, rPET), customised recycled Ocean Bound Plastic resin (rPP, rHDPE, rLLDPE, rPET) and customised recycled plastic resin with EN 71-3 compliance (rPP). 

HHI's horizontal integration of the supply chain enables complete control over the quality of raw materials throughout the production process. With 18 intellectual property patents and one trademark filed, it successfully employs technological innovation to convert plastic scrap into valuable materials.

Exports & Sustainability Market

HHI exports over 70% of its output to 38 countries. Products can sell at a premium price in the sustainability market due to higher quality on-spec materials and sustainability reasoning.

HHI is creating a market opportunity in the sustainability market via rewarding innovations and providing more circular, ethical and high-quality products made from 100% Ocean Bound Plastics (OBP) or Plashaus customised resins. It has ventured into collecting and recycling OBP in Malaysia's coastal and river areas since 2020.

The Louvre Chair is one of HHI’s sustainable collaborations

Smart Collaborations 

HHI's Plashaus Ocean brand of plastics was created with partners and co-creators, making it a vital example of circular economy innovation. This collaboration converts OBP to upcycled goods, creating fully sustainable and closed-loop systems where resources are reused and recycled.

The Louvre Chair is one of HHI's smart collaborations in producing their Smart Plastics and Traceability Programme. It allows third party verification on claims that the material is recycled from waste plastic found in the vicinity of marine and riverine environments.

Digital Transformation

HHI intends to digitally modernise the plastic recycling industry to gather better grade plastics. A simplified and user-friendly collection method would extend the industry's infrastructure beyond the informal collectors and grassroots recyclers to the household level. The goal is to create a mobile application that will revolutionise plastic recycling by allowing consumers to recycle their waste in a new way.
