The name was later changed to the Malaysian Rubber Glove Manufacturers Association in 1992. The formation of MARGMA was driven by the booming industry’s realisation that self-regulation was key to a strong, sustainable, and profitable economy. By bringing together local players at that early phase, the industry was forming a cornerstone for quality benchmarks and minimum pricing to remain competitive both locally and globally. As the industry grew, MARGMA came to champion standard manufacturing practices, knowledge sharing, technological spearheading, supply chain streamlining, and, more importantly, a common voice to the government and regulatory bodies.
