The increased worldwide demand for Electric Vehicles and vehicle care also saw the need for a specialised interior detailer. Ecoclean Interior Detailer is the best for detailing advance tech interiors EV’s like Teslas, Leafs, and BYD. Cleaning safely immediately.

Connecting with the IGL Fam Worldwide

An Experience to Remember ~ we successfully hosted IGL Australia, IGL Malaysia and IGL Singapore at our HQ in Malaysia. The IGL Fam received hands-on training and even created their own products! Also experiencing new product testing, and getting up close and personal with QC, R&D, manufacturing and ISO processes and systems.

Not forgetting the spotlight on our High Growth Installers around the world. “Beneath the Surface” series connects us with Taiwan, the USA, Australia, and more, providing insights into their journeys to success.

If you missed their stories, now’s a great time to catch up and gain inspiration from their challenges and triumphs.

The Journey towards Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)

We are proud to have completely transitioned our cleaning product lines to 100% biodegradable formulas, diminishing our environmental impact and contributing to a cleaner earth.

Our packaging design clearly reflects our commitment to a circular economy. Did you know that 99% of our packaging is now recyclable? This dedication emphasizes our efforts to minimize waste. Additionally, this enables customers to make environmentally responsible decisions at the end of use of our products.

In the realm of social responsibility, our ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) initiatives have supported over 5,000 micro- and small entrepreneurs. Driving serious economic development in the communities we engage with! In terms of corporate governance, we are committed to maintaining high ethical standards, ensuring accountability, and constantly improving our governance frameworks and practices.

Another significant effort is our strategy to address emissions from our operations. By actively engaging in carbon offsetting and using Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), we have successfully cut emissions from international shipping by 30%.

1. Collection of Feedstock (agricultural waste, household waste and used cooking oil)

2. Conversion of Feedstock to SAF

3. Blending of SAF with traditional jet fuel

4. Distribution of SAF at airports to planes

5. Reduced emissions with SAF-fuelled flights

We are dedicated to ESG principles, demonstrating our long-term commitment to sustainable business practices and highlighting our role in shaping a brighter, more sustainable future for all. Our robust ESG strategies focus on setting and achieving ambitious targets to amplify our positive impact on society and the environment.
