2024 has been a transformative year for IGL Coatings, marked by bold innovations, groundbreaking achievements, and a relentless drive to challenge the status quo. A year where we’ve turned ideas into reality, setting new benchmarks for sustainable, high-performance coatings across industries.

Pioneering Innovation

This year, we unleashed a wave of game-changing products, from Arcane, our graphene-powered award winning coating, to eco-friendly PFAS-free solutions like Marine Solutions and Aegis Catalyst. Each product launched, from Good Luck Shampoo, HydroCoat and Strip embodies our mission to deliver cutting-edge performance while championing sustainability.

IGL Coatings Stands Tall at International Events

Our presence shone at international events, including an unforgettable 8th year at SEMA and dynamic appearances at Automechanika Frankfurt and Dubai, where our CEO, Keong Chun Chieh, shared our vision for sustainable innovation with the industry. These platforms amplified our reach and influence, forging new connections and opportunities.

A standout moment this year was the nomination of our flagship product, KENZO, for Sustainable Product of the Year at Automechanika. A pioneer Zero to Low VOC 10H Ceramic Coating, this nomination highlights our commitment to sustainability and innovation, setting new standards in the coatings industry.

No longer just an ordinary Malaysian company from Shah Alam of 10 years ago. IGL Coatings now stands tall among worldwide industry giants, made in Malaysia, nurturing and showcasing world class Malaysian talents.

Recognition through Awards and Achievements

This year, we were honored with numerous awards that celebrated our commitment to innovation and sustainability. Arcane, our revolutionary graphene-powered coating, won the Global Media Award at SEMA. Other highlights included the SOBA Award, the Export Excellence Award, and recognition through the ECX 2024 Top 10 Finalists title. These accolades underscore our dedication to excellence and the impact of our efforts on a global scale.

Driving Innovation through Collaborations and Distributors

Driving Innovation Through Collaborations and Distributors

Collaborations have been at the heart of our progress in 2024. Partnering with Art of Speed—our exclusive automotive coating partner for the second year—and others like CommerceAsia and Big Joe, has opened doors to new opportunities and strengthened our ability to deliver cutting-edge solutions to everyone.

The IGL Family grew even larger this year with the addition of new distributors in Saudi Arabia and Croatia. This expansion ensures that our products and vision reach even more regions, connecting us with a global community of detailers, enthusiasts, and professionals who share our passion for excellence.

Additionally, we proudly supported the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), reinforcing our commitment to sustainable and ethical practices worldwide.

Expanding Horizons

Participating in 10 key events and 7 major exhibitions this year underscores our expanding global presence. From Waxstock UK’s debut to showcasing our innovations at the Tokyo Auto Salon and Automechanika events in Dubai and Frankfurt, IGL Coatings has firmly established itself as an innovative ceramic coating leader in the ceramic coatings industry worldwide.

Community Impact

Our impact extends beyond products and events. In 2024, we achieved remarkable milestones:

• 672 Litres of Coatings Sold
• 16,800 Coatings Sold
• 65.52 Million Litres of Water Saved
• $33.6 Million Revenue Generated for Detailers
• More than 36,000 Cars Protected
• 5,000+ Detailers in Our Global Network

These achievements reflect our commitment to supporting our community and driving positive change in the automotive and industrial sectors.

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

We are proud to have transitioned our cleaning product lines to 100% biodegradable formulas, reducing our environmental impact and contributing to a cleaner earth. Our packaging continues to be 99% recyclable, emphasizing our dedication to a circular economy.

In social responsibility, our ESG initiatives have supported over 5,000 micro- and small entrepreneurs, driving economic development in the communities we engage with. Additionally, our strategy to address emissions—through carbon offsetting and the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF)—has successfully cut emissions from international shipping by 30%.

Cohorts Empowering Growth

This year, we participated in three key cohorts that have been monumental in our growth:

1. ECX24: An intensive 4-month program uplifting 50 Malaysian SME brands through seasoned mentors and dynamic workshops, focusing on digital transformation and investment readiness.
2. Scale Up by Endeavor: A global program designed to boost early-stage, high-potential entrepreneurs with curated mentorship and community support.
3. UNGC (United Nations Global Compact): Strengthening our commitment to sustainable and ethical business practices on a global scale.
