Stakeholder Engagement Supports Review of MRC ESG Guidelines
As ESG expectations and sustainability reporting requirements continue to evolve, the Malaysian Rubber Council (MRC) is reviewing its ESG Guidelines to ensure they remain practical, relevant, and aligned with emerging sustainability frameworks, including NSRF/ISSB, TCFD, TNFD, i-ESG, and ESRS.
To support this effort, MRC recently organised a stakeholder engagement session to gather industry feedback and assess the applicability of the updated Guidelines across the Malaysian rubber industry value chain.
The session featured Ts Raja Shazrin Shah from Galaxy Tech Solutions, who provided an independent technical perspective on strengthening the robustness, practicality, and usability of the Guidelines amid evolving ESG expectations.
The engagement successfully gathered valuable industry feedback, assessed the practicality of the proposed updates, strengthened the quality and relevance of the Guidelines, and supported industry readiness for future sustainability reporting requirements.
Through engagements such as this, MRC remains committed to working closely with industry stakeholders to build a more resilient, responsible, and future-ready Malaysian rubber industry.
MRC Highlights Market Potential for Sustainably Produced Gloves in the EU and UK
As global markets place increasing emphasis on sustainability, ESG performance, and regulatory compliance, Malaysian glove manufacturers must continue to adapt and align with evolving buyer expectations to remain competitive, particularly in the EU and UK markets.
Recognising this shift, the Malaysian Rubber Council (MRC) successfully organised the "Market Potential for Sustainably Produced Gloves in the EU and the UK" webinar as part of its ongoing efforts to support the industry’s sustainability transition and strengthen long-term market resilience.
The session featured insights from Ms Charvi Laul and Mr Pranit Gotad of ARANCA, who shared practical market intelligence on regulatory developments, sustainability expectations, pricing considerations, and emerging opportunities for sustainably produced gloves.
Through the webinar, participants gained a clearer understanding of key market requirements and the growing importance of ESG readiness in meeting international buyer expectations. The programme also highlighted the need for Malaysian glove exporters to strengthen compliance, improve sustainability practices, and position themselves as trusted suppliers in the global healthcare supply chain.
MRC hopes the programme will encourage stronger ESG adoption across the industry and support Malaysian glove exporters in enhancing their market readiness, meeting international requirements, and strengthening their position as sustainable and competitive suppliers in the EU, UK, and global markets.
