GITA 60% Tax Allowance Expires December 31, 2026 — Glove factories: claim up to RM173K in tax savings on a 500 kWp systemCheck Eligibility
Rubber Glove & Latex Manufacturing

Solar for
Glove Factories
About RM188K/yr per 500 kWp

Malaysia's rubber glove industry faces a dual pressure: rising TNB tariffs and EU buyers asking for Scope 2 carbon data. A 500 kWp solar system addresses both — cutting your energy bill by about RM188K/yr (energy charge only) and cutting the Scope 2 footprint you report to EU customers.

500 kWp Latex Dipping Plant
About RM187,900 a Year in Energy Savings

A 500 kWp high-density solar array modelled on a dipping-line facility. 24/7 vulcanization ovens would give a steady baseload for solar offset. Scope 2 carbon data could be prepared for EU distributors after commissioning. Savings use the MV General energy charge (RM0.2983/kWh) with all output used on site; Maximum Demand savings are not counted.

Why Consider Trexon for Glove Manufacturing

Built for the 24/7 baseload demands of rubber and latex manufacturing.

EU Buyer Carbon Data

Metered Scope 2 reduction data for the carbon questionnaires EU distributors send suppliers. Note: EU CBAM does not cover rubber gloves.

Peak-Demand Analysis

We review your 12 months of bills and half-hourly demand to see how dipping line startup surges affect your Maximum Demand charge. Solar alone does not reliably reduce it.

Energy Cost Control

Cut your daytime grid energy for the life of the system. A 500 kWp system is about RM1,200,000 plus SST, a simple payback of about 6.4 years (about 5.5 years after GITA if fully absorbed).

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from glove factory operations and finance teams.

What makes glove factories ideal candidates for large solar systems?
Glove factories combine two critical advantages: large flat rooftops (a 500 kWp array needs roughly 35,000 sq ft of usable roof) and 24/7 high-baseload operations from dipping lines and vulcanization ovens. This means large system sizes (300–500+ kWp) are feasible and the bill reduction is maximized because daytime solar offsets peak production hours directly.
Does EU CBAM apply to rubber glove exports?
No. The EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) covers iron and steel, aluminium, cement, fertilisers, hydrogen and electricity — rubber gloves are not covered. EU buyers and distributors are, however, increasingly asking suppliers for Scope 2 emissions data, and solar directly reduces Scope 2 emissions (the largest component for most glove plants), lowering your reported carbon intensity.
What is the Maximum Demand charge for a typical glove factory?
Under the TNB Medium Voltage General tariff, the MD charge is RM89.27/kW per month on the highest 30-minute measured demand. A glove plant drawing 600 kW peak pays RM53,562/month in MD charges alone. Solar alone does not reliably cut MD (one cloudy 30-minute window can set the month's maximum demand), so this page does not count any MD savings.
How does GITA apply to glove manufacturers?
Under GITA, 60% of qualifying solar capex is deducted from statutory income. For a RM1.2M (500 kWp) system, that is RM720,000 deducted from taxable income — saving up to RM172,800 in corporate tax (24% rate), if the allowance is fully absorbed. The system must be commissioned and the GITA application submitted to MGTC by 31 December 2026.
Can Trexon help with my factory's energy cost optimisation project?
Yes. Send your bills and we will reply with the next steps. Commercial work starts with a roof plan, 6–12 months of bills, your single-line diagram and a photo of the meter. Trexon is a SEDA-registered PV service provider.
