Hextar Kimia Sdn Bhd: Your Reliable Source of Speciality Chemicals and Catalysts

Hextar Kimia Sdn Bhd is a leading distributor of specialty chemicals and catalysts, providing tailored technical services to the Oil & Gas and Petrochemical industries in Malaysia. The company operates under a partnership between Ekopintar Sdn Bhd and Hextar Global Berhad, holding 51% and 49% shares respectively.

Every process at Hextar Kimia is executed with strict adherence to safety and efficiency standards, ensuring reliable service to industrial clients.
